In this special episode, we explore the mysterious Japanese O-I superheavy tank—the 120+ ton prototype shrouded in secrecy and speculation. With almost no hard evidence of its existence beyond a few blueprints and scattered reports, the O-I remains one of World War II’s biggest “what ifs.” I’m joined by a guest to discuss its theoretical battlefield role, logistics, and legacy. This is a conversation built on what we know… and what we can only imagine. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/his...
