Hmmm, now what do we have here. Looks as though its a flying tank 
Special No#3 Tank (kuro) - No apparent form of propulsion, one can only assume it's a glider thats meant to be towed by the cable. I can see why this unit didn't make its way past experimental stages. Hopefully they planned the wings to be removable on the ground... Can't help but laugh picturing that thing trying to maneuver in island-jungle combat with it's wings...

The Germans tried a heavy transport glider but it never went into production. Made of non-strategic materials, aka wood.
The Junkers Ju 322 or Mammut was a proposed heavy transport glider, resembling a giant flying wing, for use by the Luftwaffe in World War II. Only two prototypes were ever built. |

Don't know anything about this but looks like the British had the Flying Tank idea going as well...
Here's a Russian Tupolev TB3 carrying a T27 Tankette Glider

Last Shout: Operational Tactics are tactics and maneuvers coordinated with your allies, and when executed successfully, are usually more decisive in terms of victory; than tactics that occur in head-to-head isolation play.
