Replacement for AT-39



AT-39 prototype, replacement for AT-36





AT-38 prototype, replacement for AT-35



AT-37 (TT-37) prototype



The AT-37 is an Atlantean version of the Transall designed TT-37. The AT-37 is a heavy tank design that utilises experience from the various FAR nations.
The TT-37 is a standard design that will see several minor changes depending on each nations specifications.

AT-36 prototype
The AT-36 ammounts to an upsized AT-35 with an extra road wheel and mounting a medium velocity 75mm gun. The engine is a 500 hp diesel engine and armour is similar to the AT-35.





AT-35 prototype
Production began in sept. 1935



Designed to meet the requirement for a medium cruiser tank, the AT-35 uses experience gained from previous designs such as sloped armour, improved engine and the same 57mm gun as the AT-33.

AT-34 prototype
Production began in sept. 1935


The AT-34 is basically a modified AT-31 design that has spawned from the Mexican requirement for the AT-31 design with improvements. The design is based on the AT-31 with components from the AT-32 and a newly designed turret to be armed with a 20mm cannon. The design also uses sloped armour.
The turret depicted is a mock up of the AT-35 turret with a 37mm gun.

Two very odd experimental designs are currently being tested, both using the 25/1931 AT gun. One design is a tank intended for use in support of airborne troops, transported by a very large glider transport.

Experimental Light Tank (airborne)

The other design is an amphibious tank. Trials on this design have been somewhat problematic (the first prototype sinking on two tests). Subsequently its side pods, intended to supply boyancy are being enlarged. Additionally jettisonable bow and rear pods are being designed.
Experimental light tank (amphibious)

Self propelled gun

Two prototypes have been built, tentatively called the TK-36/90 and the SP-36/75. prototypes came from the desire to improve the TK-35/57 and SP-35/75 designs as they proved to be front heavy which resulted in dificulty moving accross difficult terrain and excessive strain on forward suspension. The TK-36/90 ultimately was designed with the gun compartment forward as with the TK-35/57 but the road wheel arrangement was changed slightly to address the weight issues of the forward mounted gun.


Tank destroyer prototypes

AT-34 based design

A tank killer design based on the AT-34 light tank using a 57mm AT gun designated the TK-34/57.



AT-39 based design

As a new tank prototype based on the AT-36 was built (later called the AT-39) it was decided to build a self propelled gun design using components from the AT-39 program as an extention of the program started to improve the TK-35/57 and SP-35/75 designs.

Armoured cars

Requirement placed in 1935 for armoured car.
requirement fullfilled with the 6 wheeled General Ordinance T-1 and the Atlantean Locomotive Works T-2. ALW has also submited an 8 wheeled heavy armoured car design dubbed the "Wolfhound".

T-1 "Foxhound"
Production begun in 1937

T-2 "Staghound"
Production begun in 1937

T-2 "Staghound" prototype

T-3 "Wolfhound"


NH-28 early prototype


designs rejected
NH-35 "Ferret", design rejected in favour of the T-1 "Foxhound". Design adopted however by Colombia.
