74 - M10 - Wolverine - Panzer Hunter

John and Rob
About this episode
The US Army had a lot of ideas for tank destroyers, but they arrived half a war too late, leaving the operators driving open-topped assault guns. But the M10 was there when they needed it in crucial moments of the Second World War, packing a big gun on a reliable chassis.
 
We'll also be discussing China's new tank, current events in modern warfare, wrapping up AusArmourFest25, and as much nerdy tank stuff we can get to while drinking a few litres of beer each. Join us for the livestream where the tank chatter gets willing!
 
Special thanks to our halftime guests; tank whisperers Nick and Phil Rutherford.
