On display at the Patton tank museum at Fort Knox, Kentucky is the T28. This monster was designed during WWII to trundle up to Nazi fortifications and blast the bejeebers out of ’em, but was too late to see service.  It was so massive that it required four treads, and even then it likely would have sunk in the mud. Even so, at 95 tons it was only about half the weight of the German Maus tank. And don’t even get me started on the “Ratte…”
