A Christmas Teaser

With everything having gone down over the past week, and me taking using that time probably questionably in some regards, I've decided to go and have some fun upgrading my Žaneta Wheeled TD, which is what this forum post is going to be about.


So, this is where I had left the Žaneta off, with the Urban Survival Kit that proved to actually be quite effective against incoming projectiles in SP.
Overall, it's a very practical upgrade kit for a vehicle, I'd say.


The Hussar, though, is anything but that!
I decided to take a bit of a joke from 2020RP and made it into a whole Parade Kit, mostly for the looks.
Its something more to be looked at, especially the wings, but it's using a lower part count version of the Urban Survival Kit turret with the Ceramic blocks up against the cheeks instead of spaced out.


And finally, the completely-built-from-scrath new Žaneta hull thats designed to completly improve hull protection, replacing of passenger compartment with an emgine compartment, and the former engine conpartment being filled with fuel tanks.


As stated above, the hull seriously got an upgrade, and even has some all-around protection for the hull that the Žaneta's been desperately been needing since I first made it.


I've decided to prototype a fully RC turret that's based on the Challenger's Falcon turret, though ultimately decided to not pursue the concept due to odd proportions compared to the hull.
It should be noted that this is the first turret design specifically for the brand new Rh-128A4A1 smoothbore cannon, which uses the new cannon part added with the 1.9 update.


So, the Hussar should be out by Christmas, I can guarantee that for anyone interested, while the new Žaneta (which I've labeled the "Žaneta 3") is still being constructed and needs the Mk16b turret installed.
