| Well, quite... hmmm... impressive... (???) Honestly, I've never heard of this project.
Not only guns but also turret looks like taken straight from Gneisenau or Scharnhorst just with middle barrel missing. | |

Country: | Well, toffi, the turret was used in "Batterie Oerlander" near Trondheim. I had heard of the project before, but as it never left the drawing board not many people would have heard of it.
All the information is on that site. The King Tiger weighed 68 tonnes, so 1 tonne is just a bit out there.

| It was to have been 35 meters long, 14 meters wide, 11 meters high.
The tracks were to be 3.6 meters wide.
Powerplants were either two MAN Marine Engines (8,500hp each) or 8x Daimlers at 2,000hp each.
Top Speed 40km/h
Weight~900000-1000000kg
Armament could have been: Two Naval (Gneiesnau/Scharnhorst, indeed!) 280mm Guns, Single 128mm, or eight Flak 38 20mm's and two Mg-151/15 15mm's.
P 1000 turret ended up at coastal defence battery (Batterie Oerlander) near Trondheim, Norway. Quote:
In December of 1942, Krupp created new design of 1500 ton tank - P 1500. It frontal armor would be 250mm thick and it would be armed with 800mm super heavy mortar "Dora" type and possibly two 150mm artillery pieces. P 1500 would be powered by two or four submarine diesel engines. In early 1943, Albert Speer cancelled both projects. P 1000 turret ended up at coastal defence battery (Batterie Oerlander) near Trondheim, Norway.
Even before P 1000 and P 1500, in 1939, Krupp began working on other similar projects for projected series of self-propelled coastal guns for the German Navy - Kriegsmarine. Series was to include 14 different platforms designated from R1 to R14. Armament was to range from 150mm to 380mm and it was to be mounted on fully traversible turntables on tracked carriages. One of the designs was R2 coastal gun armed with 280mm gun. The series never left drawing boards.

Country: | Just read the site, the turret on the P1000/1500 was used on Battery Oerlander in Trondheim. They look like Battleship turrets, because they basically were.
The T-95 was not Soviet, it was completely American. And it was useless too. Seeing as the T-95, Maus or P1000 never saw combat I don't know how you can ramble on about them being good.

Country: | You obviously don't know if you believe so. Is this coming from a person who said the P1000/1500 was 1 ton. Or that the turret was off a Battleship.
Do you want to look at some of the Soviet Experimental designs? http://www.battlefield.ru/kv_exp.html
Look on there.
The T28/T95 was a pure American AFV design and the first model was completed in September 1945, the second completed around the same time but lost to fire. The whole project was cancelled in October 1947.
Pacific Car & Foundry designed and built the T28/T95...and the Soviets had nothing to do with it.

Country: | I never was "on your back". I merely proved you to be incorrect, so now you've learned.
