Replica Japanese 'No Go' tank. (Just kidding). Three of these were built for the filming. The story from the action vehicle people was that the tracks alone cost $120,000. The links were cast off an original from the AWM.
The tanks were powered by Ford Falcon engines and gearboxes driving at first through Jaguar differentials using the inboard disc brakes for steering. This was not successful and Marmon Herrington light tank transmissions were procured and installed. These did work but problems were encountered because of the lack of offset final drives. This meant that even with the transmissions mounted as far forward in the hull as possible the short little jack shafts between the transmission and stub axle were running at an extreme angle.
