Tank PC created by Skip Station also fires rounds

What come to your mind when anyone says the word "Tank"? It is either a water holding container or a deadly war fighting machine which comes to your mind. But can you ever in your wildest dream imagine a PC in the shape of an M1A1 Abrams tank? You probably wouldn't. That is exactly what has been done by Skip Station. They have built a PC in the shape of the deadly M1A1 Abrams tank.

The "tank" PC of Skip is huge in size, measuring at 32″ (l) x 12″ (w) x 11″ (h). But the million dollar question is how all this was achieved. Well, for that the creator of this tank PC has had to do a little bit of hard work. In order to get the systems required for a fully functional PC inside the tank, he had to cut a hole on the side to fit the mini ITX motherboard of the PC. But for a system which looks complicated in its design the layout of this tank is extremely simple. The motherboard is positioned between the tracks and it functions just like a normal computer. It also has two motors in the back.

The tank PC looks cool with the Green LED lights installed on the sides which illuminates the tank tracks. It has one SSD and laptop disc drive at the front. The disc drive opens at the front of the tank.

But the coolest feature of this Tank PC is yet to come. Just like a normal tank it can be driven around using a six channel remote control and an even cooler feature is that it is, just like the actual Abrams, can fire rounds. It can fire pellets from its main gun. Another feature which surely wouldn't miss about the tank is that just like a battle tank it is painted in a forest camouflage.
