20/25TP
Polish medium tank design. / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 20/25TP (dwudziestotonowy polski/dwudziestopięciotonowy polski; "20-tonne Polish/25-tonne Polish") was a Polish medium tank concept that was never built. There were three projects designed by KSUS and BBTBr.Panc. and PZInż which even managed to build a wooden model of it. The name 20/25TP is not official; it was created by the author Janusz Magnuski analogously to nomenclature used for other Polish tanks of that period. According to different classification it could be medium tank or heavy tank.
