That is nothing. Just wait until they deploy the Russian Land Battleships.

My old link to it doesn't work, but the Germans planned a 2000-ton land battleship much larger than this one. The main gun was to be the colossal 600 mm "Dora Kanone" in a flexible mounting (!!!-Google 'Dora Kanone' to find out how ludicrous this idea was), with secondary protection given by 2-4 125-mm turreted guns and numerous machine guns and flame throwers. Power was to be provided by 4 U-boat engines. Crew was upwards of 50.

Like most of Hitler's crazy ideas it never got beyond the sketch stage.
