It had the firepower to destroy the German heavy tanks and tank destroyers deployed in the fortified lines built in Europe.\u003cbr\u003eThe T28, which had no rotating turret and had a sealed fixed fighting compartment, was renamed the T95 tank destroyer in 1945.\u003cbr\u003eThe two T28s (T95s) that were produced were tested at Aberdeen Proving Ground and Fort Knox until 1947.\u003cbr\u003eThe greatest feature of this vehicle is the inner\/outer double-track running gear and tracks, which were designed to reduce ground pressure in order to support a combat weight of nearly 90 tons. The outer running gear could be removed along with the side skirts, and the outer running gear could be removed when transporting by rail or running on paved roads.\u003cbr\u003eThe removed outer left and right running gear were designed to be combined with the side skirts on the inside and towed to the rear of the vehicle.\u003cbr\u003eThe T28 was the only assault gun-type fighting vehicle in the US Army, but development was cancelled in October 1947 due to operational limitations imposed by the vehicle's low mobility and weight, as well as the priority being given to the T29 heavy tank, which had been under development since 1944.\u003cbr\u003eOne of the two prototypes is on display at the Patton Tank Museum at Fort Knox.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/pg-cdn-a2.datacaciques.com\/00\/MTExNDY1\/26\/02\/26\/k7s08wsy798nf616\/c2e97c4efbb33083.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"TAKOM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47859852574974,"sku":"2210 TAKOM","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/4628\/4542\/files\/O1CN0172VPk01JInZD4nCCE__3912641006_jpg_q50_jpg.avif?v=1775102502","url":"https:\/\/modelhives.com\/products\/takom-2210-1-35-m28a1-a2-super-assault-tank-2-options-included-model-kit","provider":"ModelHives","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
