Jack Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Men of HMVF, Just working a few things out here. Could someone be as kind as to give me the 'restored' weights - not WWII spec of the following: Sherman Hellcat Stuart Chaffee M10 Bren Gun Carrier Halftracks - all models M8/M20's Thank you very much!

Marmite!! Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 If they have been restored then wouldn't they be the same as WW2 spec?:coffee: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well not unless they were full of live ammo, fuel all crew equipment etc.... My Sherman is 29500 kg, others will be less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 If they have been restored then wouldn't they be the same as WW2 spec?:coffee: No because they aren't so loaded as WWII unless you have 50 people hanging off them :coffee: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Easy 8 Sherman 31,3 t Universal carrier 3,3 t Stuart M5 13,2 t Dingo 2,9 t But of course depends on what is loaded , these are weights when they went in to get paperwork , so empty vehicles.

steveo578 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 AlienFTM How much does 90 gallons of petrol weigh? try /www.simetric.co.uk/si_liquids.htm Gives all sort of liquid weights at nominal 25degree C from acetone to Xylene, vehicle gas weighs 0.737 kilos per litre therefore 90 x 4.546 x 0.737 = 301.5 kg Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
