Human ingenuity seems to have no limits. One of the areas where this can be appreciated the most is in the display of incredible military vehicles created by different countries over the last century. After chariots and carriages became a thing of the past thanks to the advent of motorized methods of transportation, militaries realized the incredible potential of the things newly discovered and developed. As usual, when it comes to the military, the race was on.

The result has been the creation of several vehicles that display creativity and ingenuity. These vehicles look to take advantage of every scientific discovery and put it into practice on the battlefield. Starting with a stealth tank that can transform its infrared presence and project it as if it was something different, all these vehicles — past and present — will get the blood pumping.

Coming in at number 15 is the PL-01 Stealth Tank. This is a Polish tank of the future with some incredible features like temperature-controlled wafers that make it invisible to infra-red sensors. It’s like a chameleon. It can also give it tiger-like stripes in the jungle or make it look flat in the desert.
