Many years ago one of the Japanese tank magazines had really nice 4 view drawings of an American XM803, the economy version of the MBT70.
I had a copy at one point but can't find it.

Does anyone remember this publication title and issue so I can start looking for one. Or perhaps someone owns a copy for sale or loan.

Can't help you with the Japanese magazine, but maybe this would interest you...
