Steve,

I saved this for later but you leave me no choice: check out my other, 
rather masculin, project - wait: let me drive it out of the garage for you 
...

The 1:1 scale model Leopard 2 A6 is powered by 2 EV Warriors on 36 V for 
heavy duty performance. The hull is made of 9 mm plywood, the turret is 
corrugated cardboard laminated with TippEx and finished in a mixture of 
black, green and brown paint. Knitted tracks are padded with old, hardly 
used condoms for safe driving on paved roads, whilst the specially designed 
mighty Anvilus watercooled hydraulic controller ensures maximum performance 
during off roading with stabilized gun.

The 120 mm paintball marker is capable of firing paintballs, pumpkins, small 
pets and captured 1:6 scale English style paintballtanks at a rate of 48 per 
minute.

Engine sound is produced by a print connected to the Anvilus HydroController 
and therefore revs up with the RPM of the EV's (additional smoke discharger 
included).
The tank is operated from within by means of a traditional Futuba 
receiverless single channel touchscreen transmitter.

Now THAT is a tank for REAL MEN!!!
