How many wheels does a tank have?
Do tanks have lots of wheels or just two? I’ve been debating with my friend about how many wheels a tank has and he says they technically just have two, but I don’t believe him.

While your friend is right that a tank has two continuous track systemstanks do have wheels that guide the treads! While different kinds of tanks have different numbers of wheels, most tanks have six road wheels.
Some classic tank designs include:
- The US M1 Abrams series, which has seven road wheels
- The German Leopard 2, which has six road wheels
- The British Challenger 1, which has six road wheels
- The Russian T-90, which has six road wheels
- The French Leclerc, which has six wheels
