Then, does the word "HIT" on the front right means that it is where to shoot it to destroy it?

Like WOT if you hit a fender it takes 25% of the hit points off of the enemy!! :)

Probably referes to Heavy Industries Taxila, the manufacturer.

More specifically, a Bionix 25. It's followed by 2 Bionix Warthogs.

Not quite: the one on the left is a Bionix 25, named for the 25mm cannon it totes.  The one on the right is a Bionix 40.

The A1E1 design can be seen as a possible influence on the Soviet T-100 and T-28 tanks, the German Neubaufahrzeug tanks, and the British Medium Mk III and Cruiser Mk I (triple turret) tank designs. The Soviet T-35 tank was based extremely closely on its plans and layout.
 
I love all the interwar prototype tanks each nation designed. That and how much countries "borrowed" from one another.

Here's the next one for you gents.
