I have the overwhelming urge to give it a firm slap and say "That's not going anywhere."
That's 1 to the dad points.
Gotta stop and check those load binders one more time, just to be sure.
It never occurred to me to use a box truck as a cope cage. Fucking epic.
How... Did they get it in there?
Curved ramp and a lot of speed.
Lay the truck on its side.
Overhead lift with a block and tackle.
But the rig would conflict with roof of the truck no?
Get it swinging and keep a hold on the quick-release.
Forklift
With 90 degree tilt arms?
That's an actual thing you can put on a forklift.
That being said, good luck finding a forklift that can pick up a tank. Max I've seen was rated for 20k pounds, aka 10 tons. Even the M1E3 is expected to weigh over 4x that
4 forklift
Unless someone says otherwise, I'm guessing that's either a really good decoy or a movie prop. Or photoshop.
If it fits it ships.
You know, this doesn't look very credible, at least in in wartime, but the basic idea of camouflaging your APC as a plain truck camouflaged as ground might be.
You dawg, I herd u liek heavy vehicles...

Wait, there's no motor in a tank? I've never really thought about how they work, but that doesn't seem right.
Motorized infantry means infantry transported by light vehicle like trucks and hmmwv. Mechanized infantry means infantry transported by armored vehicles like APCs and IFVs. Light infantry means infantry that will hoof it and while they can usually have trucks and the like they don’t need them to do their jobs.
If it doesn't have pistons it's just a sparkling prime mover.
...like a gun?
Mechanized infantry are Pokemon and IFVs are the Pokeballs.
The logistics of that one are interesting.
