Early versions of the German Panzer IV tank had a relatively short gun, because they were intended for infantry support. Therefore, the priority was on high explosive capacity. If you want a good proper anti-tank gun however, then you'll want a much longer barrel and a much larger case to contain more propellant. However this comes at the cost of high explosive capacity. Take the Panther tank for example. Really long gun, really big shells. But tiny high explosive capacity. Only good for tank killing and not much else.
Ah, now I saw it correctly. It just fooled me because the barrel is "mounted" so much in the center of the tower and the tower being so long forward.
ARE YOU? Also I do love this design, it feels more of a medium replacement than an AFV replacement. It is a bit too bulky feeling for the tank chassis itself and it looks really really strong. Better than the current mediums firepower.
I think you need your head examined. Plus, that configuration is impossible from a ergonomical point of view.
I dunno, looks a tad front-heavy in my eyes. (if this is a double post, then please delete it, my internets fucked up)
There is a small passage, all you have to do is unscrew one of the wheels, drench yourself in bacon grease and squeeze your way through.
well, the afv needs to be based on a apc hull according to whoever came up with that story twist, so in respect it should have an apc door
Just so you don't confuse people in future, that would be a rotation, not a flip. Flipping it would have been putting an axis down the barrel of the turret and then rotating it 180 degrees around that.
