Agree if base size mainly on height most Western tanks inc Abrams about 2.4-2.5m so size 5. Russians generaly slightly lower profile so size 4. Think Asia generaly size 5 to
Big Boys M6 series & Leo 2 at 3.0m+ so size 6
Merkerva borderline size 6 to possibly have not checked game size.

Don Andy things like this general research put it out there sure many people are happy to share the load.
People could post what they find, additional posters could post if diffrent or just say verify post by so & so. Perhaps ask to quote sources if remember & verify if your source is diffrent.

Same thing applies to things like adding a weapon slot that require all scenerios to be redone.
If a team is willing to do could assign 2 to each scenerio to update & then check against the others work.

Leo 2 is only 2.8m, but the hight can't be all the criteria for the size can it?
So size 5 for MBT or medium tanks looks fine to me.

Agree M6 is the really big boy at over 3.0m but Leo2 is closer to 3 than 2.5m.
Its a case of where do you draw the line hence mentioned Merkerva as I think a couple were quite tall.
I would say its not the only criteria but is the major one as unlike front & side it is a constant regardless of facing.
Its a questimate any way unless you actualy work out the profile in metres square or whatever. A tall vehicle with a turret would probably offer slightly less area than a non turreted vehicle whose height was mid way between the hull & turret heights of the other vehicle.
The Leo2 just strikes me as being a bit bigger than the norm.

Just saying here, if you base it manly on the hight and even the whole siluete from the side, all trucks (especialy the haevy ones) should have size 6 (they're abote 3.5m high over the whole length...)
