Hope it's not just me that feels this way but I found the idea of building such a tank a bit pointless if I'm honest? It's not really a model of a tank, it's not really a real tank, it won't sound like a real tank and with the likelihood of the drivers' head being stuck out of the top of the turret it all looks a bit silly and ridiculous to me!! A bit too much like 'playing' at being a tank commander rather than building a scale replica??
A rather odd scale too. Why build it at two fifths (1:2.5) scale?? Surely it would be easier to calculate the size/dimensions of components, etc, by just building it at half scale (1:2)?!   
Each to their own though I suppose?

Thought it would bring a smile, its a strange scale I admit but it not just in America they are building them, after looking on metube I fouled ones in holland and Germany of the same scale. All I could come up will was that it is the smallest scale you could build them at to get a man in . Peter Builds in progress: HMS Victory.HMS Surprise.
Completed builds: Revell London Bus 1/24.
Builds to do:Sovereign of the seas, Hms Albion.
