12. Screw Drive Tank
(Zil-4904)Ok, let's start with a design that probably had good intentions, but failed to live up to the expectations. The first vehicle propelled by a screw was developed for agriculture in the US and during WWII, the British thought about developing a tank that used a screw instead of treads to battle it out in snowy countries.

11. The Sham II
This might be a weird name for a tank, but trust me, the name itself doesn't even give it justice. By definition, this is actually a homemade tank, and it's being used by the Syrian Rebels. It may not be the most impressive looking tank ever made (in fact, it'd probably be pretty low on that list), but you can't deny they made good use of what they had: an old diesel car and parts salvaged from a junkyard.

10. Armored Quadricycle
Take a look at this vehicle. You might be saying to yourself, "That's not a tank!"
But it depends on what you consider a tank! After all, this quadricycle has the body framework of a tank, has a Maxim machine gun, and some armor shielding. Doesn't that sound like a tank?

9. Bigfoot Tank
Here is another vehicle that will challenge your idea of a tank! It definitely is one, just not in the ways you'd expect. In the early days of monster truck races, everyone was looking to one up the competition and make something truly unique and special. So, a man named Bob Chandler decided to take the frame of a Ford Aerostar and strap it onto the treads of a Patton tank. And so, the Bigfoot Tank was born.

8. Treadless Tanks
As I mentioned before, tanks are mostly known for their treads as their way of moving around. However, many people were up to the challenge of changing that perception and figuring out new ways for tanks to run around. Just not with a screw... Including race car driver J. Walter Christie, who was much more than a driver, he was actually a tank builder. That's right, this guy built tanks, and he loved thinking outside of the box, including making tanks that didn't have treads, and focused its power in its wheels.

7. 1K17 Szhatie
Also known as a laser tank, while this might look strange, this is also arguably one of the most useful tanks on this list. The Soviet Union built this tank with the purpose of firing lasers to disable the equipment of enemy missiles. And believe it or not, it worked!! The Pentagon managed to get information on them and nicknamed it the Stiletto.

6. Object 279
Have you noticed that a lot of these tanks are from Russia? And trust me, there are more to come. Russia is known to have one of the best tank divisions in the world, and that's honestly because they like to make tanks for every occasion. Plus, like I mentioned they do well in the snow!! Take, for example, Object 279, a literal one-of-a-kind tank. Really, they only built one of these things.

5. The Churchill Crocodile
This terrifying tank made many German soldiers immediately surrender! While most tanks fire explosive shells that are meant to bombard the enemy, the legendary Churchill Crocodile did something totally different. This tank had a flamethrower! Pretty scary stuff!!

4. Praying Mantis
This tank was supposed to make everything look easy, but instead it kind of did the opposite. For most tanks, if you put enough of a barrier in front of them, they couldn't shoot through it, or over it. And so the experimental praying mantis was born.

3. Tortuga Tank
Tanks can be intimidating. They’re large and loud and can rumble across all kinds of land in the most extreme conditions. They are practically impenetrable and come firing and exploding things. But...if you don't design a tank properly...you won’t get that intimidating effect.

2. Flying Tanks
You have to hand it to the Soviets, they decided that it would be a great idea to glide a tank onto a battlefield.
Many countries were trying to figure out how to do this because getting a tank to its desired location can be very tough, and slow, especially if you have to cross a body of water.

1. Hungarian Big Wind
What do you get when you cross a Russian Tank with a Jet engine?? A badass tank!! There is no need to limit your creativity when it comes to military vehicles! Hungarians took a T-34 tank and removed its turret and mounted twin MiG jet engines to the treads.
