Chimera 1955 - Design & Development

A look at the design and ideas drawn up as part of project Chimera. An STT project only the Chimera was a design solution for a very light vehicel to replace the BAT in 1955. Chimera was the result of the study course and was very light, small and farily agile and like most STT projects the work was stored should such a solution ever be required. Added into WOT as the Manticore, several errors between the plans given and what was presented resulted in a underperfoming vehicle at the time Sources: Project Chimera Workbook and presentation folder Bovington Archives #tanks #worldoftanks #Chimera #Concept #STT #Schooloftanktechnology #Manticore #fredsmum #wtf #premium #experimental #tank #british #design
