Now-now, don't bash the Tsar Tank, lest its German cousin will show up.

"D-Kalu 1", the Zambian lunar (and in case of success - also the Martian) program of late 1960s.

The description is at wiki link.

The pictures of the training and the prototype are at the second link and in google, images, "D-Kalu 1". 

(It's just hard to properly select a proper one, serve yourself.)

Historically first lunar program with a female pilot and cats.

For me, it's just perfectly Kerbal, and also we need the cats in KSP.

That's the typical disparity between Allied and Imperial Japanese armor. They actually kept all of their Sherman equivalents in reserve for defense of the mainland.

Their tanks weren't bad, they were just... tailored to their environment, and outclassed by landlubbers.
