    Like, some of these are fun to think about but tanks canonically wear skirts like 2 so i think this is a solved problem

      yeah, i remember watching a movie (mst3k something) where a guy was talking about getting home and getting the skirt off his girl, and when so and so went to beat him up over it he was talking about his van.

      Sort of.

      Its… like 2, but I guess analagously a ‘pants-on-head’ situation.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DD_tank

      The Sherman DD (Duplex Drive / “Donald Duck”):

      Raised vents.

      Pants/Skirt on Head.

      Mechanical Flippers.

      The bottom is already water tight, what you do have to is worry about water getting into the vents and of course making it into a psuedo ship hull shape.

      Definitely not a good idea in anything other than pretty much placid water.
