A friend of mine has some acquaintances in the United States and one of them found a tank while working in a barn:
Does somebody know what kind of tank this is? Maybe a Centurion?
Please help identifying a tank

It is though God by command has withdrawn every other throne.
And God is saying 'No. These people will deal with me alone.'

I wonder how a Centurion ended up in America. We had the Patton tanks so it doesn't make sense for it to be there unless it's like for trials and tests.

Didn't even realize hahaha.
No I'm honestly not shitting anyone here
/Edit:
Ok Centurion is probably a good guess, compare here:

Looks like a Centurion Mk. 5 to me. Also, looks like Aussie livery.
Funnily enough, there is a Cent that looks extremely like it on tanks encyclopedia. My guess is it somehow got to the US from Vietnam.

Agreed with AtomicRockets. Seems like late modification of Centurion, with 105-mm gun.

I'm going with an M-60 Patton.
Could be wrong, but it smells like one.
People complain the Soviets are useless.
Well, they are useless if you fight your units 1vs1. But they are all about Synergy.
What do I care if you have a Panther? Once you are crippled from running over a mine
I wait until you repair it with your 3x SturmPioneers and tell my 3x Mortars to fire at it.
did you know Vet 1 Mortars get FLARE?!
- 900 Manpower down the drain. - Panther still can't move worth a damn.

It's definitely a Centurion.
Looking at the hull it seems to be a Mark 5/2 variant (note the single headlight), the only version of that hull to get the famous L7 rifled 105mm gun (this gun is distinguishable by the "bore evacuator" which is the tick part in the middle of the barrel). The big round thing on top of the turret is an IR search light.
Might have been Canadian. Or Australian and somehow brought back from Vietnam.

Sorry. I was just looking at the Mantlet of the turret.
I ... had not looked at the main hull. You are correct, it looks like a Centurion body.

An insane amount of Canadian Easy 8s. Lol.
I found a Centurion with the bore evacuator.
The gun mantlet is identical. The hull seems a little different, though.
Just CTRL-F (Find) this : Strathcona
It'll pop right up. It's about 33% down the page.

The one on the left. Turret and Gun seem about right.

At least I'm not doing everything in my power to pretend a good unit is bad.
