I have been looking at the various experiments that have taken place with 
cameras. I was particularly impressed with the view from the hetzler. I was 
wandering how many people would consider tank camera only combat. I think it 
would make for some very interesting battling as recon would be critical! 
Also turrented tanks would be best operated by two people, a driver and a 
gunner, with arguments over who is in charge :)

I wouldn't propose that all combat be like this, just for the people who 
would find it a hoot.

The main problems I see are those of reliability and the need for multipule 
frequencies foir the TV systems. it would in fact open up battle locations 
as even a backyard with some cardboard boxes will offer plenty of stuff to 
hide behind if all you can see is what is piped fron the turrent camera.

Although I haven't yet begun a project I can't wait to have not just a tank 
that I can control and shoot, but the possibility of sitting in the drivers 
seat :)
