84 tons? I seem to remember reading that the Germans in WW2 had some pretty advanced heavy tanks that were pretty much unstopable. Until they got to a bridge. Or a bog. Or a small road or any other surface that couldn't take their weight. And even those monsters were "only" 70 or so tons. I guess the folks at BAE don't have any history books in the employee lounge.
