adding ":large" to end of url of pic uploaded on twitter allows to get a larger version of it, with resolution limited to 2048x2048 instead of 1200x675 pix
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_qwfwPUYAIVr21.jpg:large

and btw it also seems possible to upload and see on twitter pics at resolution up to 4096x4096 - with links like this one: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_segYMWkAAsLcD?format=jpg&name=4096x4096
which i got looking at post with this image via mobile.twitter.com

and also it seems possible to get the same image limited to 4096x4096 by adding ":4096x4096" to end of regular link
like this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_segYMWkAAsLcD.jpg:4096x4096

and even more than that - by adding ":orig", like this

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DpAZnMDXUAQ_DlZ.jpg:orig
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DpAZnMDXUAQ_DlZ?format=jpg&name=orig

obviously, one can't get picture larger than it's original resolution,
and so far I haven't found any pics longer of wider than 2048 pix, uploaded before mid-May of this year. photos posted as early as August of 2014 turn out to be  longer and/or wider than 2048pix, like one in this post for example https://twitter.com/USArmy/status/505105128085393409

   Wooden model

[LoooSeR]

   https://twitter.com/xmszeon

   3d model of Object 490A, version with 152 mm gun and hard kill APS. Model was likely based on black and white photos of wooden model from Andrey BT's site. Vehicle was in development in early-mid 80s, before ERA was put into service (thats why it doesn't have it).

   Yeah, it can be, but tubes that look like APS launchers on turret front is making me unsure.

Curiously, there's what looks to be a mortar sticking through the turret roof in front of the machine gun.
