ABSTRACT:
Armored tank housings for all combat, scouting, infantry and supply tanks of different types and sizes and operating as track vehicles are based by selecting a tank housing so that it corresponds to the size of the largest tank size involved. The housing is formed of floor plates, side walls and roof plates. The various plates and walls forming the housing are arranged so that they can be automatically welded together along longitudinal seams. Where transverse seams are required in the floor plates and the roof plates the transverse seams are arranged so that they do not interrupt the longitudinal seams. As required, additional armor can be mounted on the side walls and the roof plates. The housing is arranged so that the components for movement, for orientation and for military tasks are located at the same locations in the housing for all of the different types and sizes of tanks for which the housing is intended.
