Vehicle description

Wargaming Tankopedia

This M47 Patton II medium tank once served in the Austrian Armed Forces, and was developed for World of Tanks with the help of Arnold Schwarzenegger himself. In fact, the iconic actor drove this very tank from 1965 to 1966, during his time in service. Years later, he found the vehicle and bought it. Now, this Patton is still running, and is used for various events and charitable activities.
