T28 Super Heavy Tank, T95 Gun Motor Carriage, "The Doom Turtle" three names, one behemoth.

America's answer to the Siegfried Line. 95 tons of "we're going through, not around."

Here's the thing about the T28: even its own military couldn't decide what to call it.

When the U.S. Army Ordnance Department drew it up in 1943, the mission was straightforward — design something that could breach the Siegfried Line and assault fortified German positions head-on. No turret. No need to rotate. Just point the thickest armor and the biggest gun in the American arsenal straight at the target and drive forward.

The result was a 95-ton casemate tank destroyer with 305mm of frontal armor — thicker than a Tiger II, thicker than a Jagdtiger, thicker than anything Germany or the Soviets had on the ground. The main gun was the 105mm T5E1, a weapon designed to crack concrete bunkers and heavy armor at long range.

It was designated the T28 as a super heavy tank. Then the Army reclassified it as the T95 Gun Motor Carriage because it had no turret. Then they changed it back to T28. Ask the nomenclature question in any armor forum and watch the thread hit 200 replies. T28 or T95 depends on who you ask and when you ask them.

Only two prototypes were ever built. The war ended before they saw combat. One was lost to a mysterious fire at a proving ground and sat in a field for decades before being rediscovered. The surviving example lives at Fort Benning, Georgia.

The internet knows it as the "Doom Turtle" — slow, impossibly armored, carrying a gun that could ruin anything in front of it. The nickname fits. This thing was never designed to be fast. It was designed to be unstoppable.

And just like the historical prototype: the outer double tracks on this kit can be detached for narrow transport configuration. That's not a gimmick — that's exactly how the real T28 was designed to be rail-transported. The outer track assemblies were removed, towed as separate trailers, and reattached at the deployment site. You can display yours either way.

What you're building:

• 2,986 pieces in 1:25 scale — our largest American armor build ever
• 16.5 inches long. 6 inches tall. 6 inches wide. Almost a foot and a half of pure American "we're going through."
• 6 crew figures included
• The unmistakable Doom Turtle silhouette — low-slung casemate, the massive 105mm T5E1 gun, the quad-track running gear
• Detachable outer double tracks — display in full combat configuration or narrow transport mode, just like the real prototype
• All pad-printed markings — zero stickers
• A build that's going to generate questions from everyone who sees it — and that's the point
