Welcome to the 44th Episode of The Two Tankers and A Cat Podcast! In this episode we talk about the multi turreted T-35 Soviet Union heavy tank. Often called a land battleship, it was the only five-turreted heavy tank in the world to reach production, but proved to be slow and mechanically unreliable.
