I think you're referring to the Tank Platoon! which was supposed to be integrated with Gunship! helicopter simulator. Unfortunately, Gunship! (like M1 TP2 before it) was a commercial failure and the Tank Platoon! was cancelled.
Edit: You were right. It was supposed to be M1 TP2 initially but this was later changed. Here's an interesting article about it. Sorry for being OT.
