M.1941 ‘克里斯蒂-宾利’

Now here we sort of enter uncharted waters with Christie because of a totallack of reliable information. This vehicle resembles, and is probably basedupon, the T.12 design. It is said to have been a plan for a high speedairbourne tank destroyer using a 90mm gun. Going nowhere, this vehicle was latermodified as a tracked truck and then scrapped.
由于相关资料严重缺乏，以下坦克的数据我们都只能靠估测了。M.1941型与T.12型很类似，或者就是基于后者设计。据称它是一个90mm炮型快速空降坦克的原形，不过随后被改建为履带式卡车，最后被拆解。

M.1942A

Looking decidedly like the M.1941 above fitted with a mocked up upper casemate,and the lower part obviously based on the M.1936, the M.1942A features no lessthan 6 machine guns (1 front , 1 rear, 2 each side); this is a seriously uglyvehicle albeit with some well angled plates.
M.1942A与M.1941型有很高的继承性，只不过更换了炮塔，车体下部的设计参考了M.1936型。装备的机枪数最少为6挺（前部一挺，后部一挺，每个侧面均有2挺）。撇开那些大倾角被弹性能良好的区域不说，这坦克真的是丑出了特色。

(No confirmed image; this is listed as the M.1941 but isn't
(图片所示的坦克型号未确定，标注显示它是M.1940型，但其实并不是)

M.1942B (也被称作M.1943和M.1950)
Yes, M.1950 because again, the design is ahead of its time this project wasnever finished. No additional details are currently known.
没错，M.1950实际上还是40年代的产品，虽然设计领先同时代坦克，但是却从未完成建造。关于该坦克的更多细节还有待发掘。

下面是第二部分：

SoPart 1 covered Christie's multitude of Tank designs, Part 2 here will cover theartillery options. It is extremely unlikely World of Tanks will ever have moreartillery added, maybe even for new trees, at the moment as it is verycontentious for some. So please read this as a history piece rather than likePart 1, which was about trying to show that there are enough interestingdesigns to add some extra content.
第一部分我们科普了克里斯蒂的多个坦克设计，那第二部分就来看看他设计的自行火炮。因为WOT中大多数国家的火炮线都已比较完整，所以玩家基本上不太可能在游戏中看到它们的身影。所以和第一部分不同，这一部分着重于科普，而不是在探讨可能加入游戏的战车。

M.1916

Ordered in December of 1916 and with a design patented in November of 1917 this3” howitzer is a large gun on a wheeled platform which, for whatever reason,never entered production.
军方在1916年下达了订单，克里斯蒂在1917年11月为该设计申请了专利。M.1916型搭载的3英寸榴弹炮对于轮式平台而言已算大口径武器，不过出于某些原因该型火炮从未投入生产。

M.1918 (也被称作8英寸自行榴弹炮MK.VI 1918型)

Built under licence by the Midvale Steel and Ordnance Company of Philadelphia,4 examples were ordered December of 1917 and patented as a design in October of1918.
经费城米德维尔钢铁和军械厂授权生产，军方在1917年12月下达了4部样车的订单，该设计1918年10月获得专利。

M.1919 (155mm炮1号载车)

Using a 6 cylinder, rear mounted, 120hp engine this SPG could manage 8mph ontracks and a respectable 20mph wheels on the roads carrying the well regardingGPF 155mm gun. It was built from salvaged parts from the earlier M.1918 8”model yet it cost an unpleasantly expensive $67,500 in 1919 and was made from Bessemersheet steel riveted to a frame.
在6缸120马力引擎的驱动下，该自行火炮在履带状态下的最大速度有8mph，轮式状态下则可以达到可观的20mph，携带一门口碑很好的GPF 155mm榴弹炮。虽然它回收利用了大量M.19188英寸自行火炮的部件，但是由于采用将贝氏转炉钢版铆接到框架上的工艺，M.1919型的造价仍然高昂，1919年的时候就已达到67500美元

M.1919/M.1923 (155mm炮3号载车)

This model features and extended spacing between the roadwheels and an additionalchain drive linking the rear roadwheel and sprocket. It is possible that in theconfusion over naming that this is actually No.2 and not No.3 and vice versa.
该设计的特色有二：负重轮之间的间距被拉大，后负重轮和链轮之间通过链条相连。考虑到命名上可能会出现的差错，它可能是2号车而M.1919/M.1921为3号车.

M.1920

Christie SPG Patent from December of 1920 for a two wheeled self-propelled gun.Visually it appears to be a forerunner of the 1924 trialled ‘ChristieSelf-Propelled Mount’.
克里斯蒂的二轮式自行火炮设计，1920年12月申请了专利。从外观上看它似乎是1924年进行测试的“克里斯蒂自行炮架”的早期试验品。

M.1921‘防空炮牵引车’

This vehicle used a very low, flat, platform onto which a 3” AA gun (top left)and later (as shown) a 4.7” gun at a cost of a mere $83,000, the design failedas the platform was not strong enough to sufficiently withstand the recoil fromthe guns despite a special muzzle brake being used to try and alleviate theproblem. Also Patented by Christie in February 1920.
该设计将非常扁平低矮的平台与高射炮结合在一起，最初用的是3英寸（76.2mm）高射炮，后来则换成4.7英寸（120mm）（有制退器的那个），造价仅为83000美元。不过这是个失败的设计，因为底盘强度不足，无法承受高射炮开火时产生的后坐力。后来加装了一个外型猎奇的炮口制退器试图缓解这个问题，不过无济于事。虽然如此，克里斯蒂还是在1920年2月给这设计上了专利。

M.1921原型车(两栖坦克1型’)

A good idea to be able to carry a 75mm gun across small bodies of water withlarge propellers at the back for propulsion and an optional chain connectingthe rear wheels together to aid traction.
该坦克装备一门75mm炮，在车体后部装备有大型推进桨叶，可以穿越一些浅水区域。动力装置与后轮通过链条相连。

M.1922 (两栖坦克3型)

Same concept as before carrying a 75mm gun in this 6.8 ton vehicle. Using a90hp engine it could manage a surprising 7.5mph in the water and was testdriven in the Hudson River in December of 1922. This design actually securedorders for sales, with the USMC buying 6 of them, with one acutally beinglaunched from at sea in 1923 for a test landing in Puerto Rico, and that eitheran example, or just the plans, were purchased by the Japanese following thetrials in 1924.
和之前方案类似，克里斯蒂同样计划在这部6.8吨重的坦克上安装一门75mm炮。令人惊讶的是，同样是在90马力引擎的驱动下，M.1922型在1922年12月哈德逊河上的测试中实现了7.5mph的水上速度。由于其出色的设计，该两栖坦克很快获得了订单，美军订购了6部，还在1923年其中一部运往波多黎各，进行了一次模拟登陆。日本人也在1924年测试后购买了一部样车（或者只是设计案）
