Cause its a tank......and im willing to bet the engine is in the rear...but then again the front could be heavier cause thats where all the armor was back then.
It's not a panzer. Panzers were German, and you can clearly see it has a white star meaning it's U.S.
This is a Post WWI, Pre WWII tank called the M2 Light Tank.
The impressive part about this whole thing is that this specific tank, even though it was called a "Light Tank" still weighed 11.5 tons. That's a lot of metal hurdling through the air.
Yep, obvious it's not a Panzer. =) It's not only the U.S. stars, but that Ford, I presume infront the tank, is not really in a place if all that was happening in Germany =D.
Btw I'm very curious, what the crew felt like after the landing... =/
