Designed to accompany and protect the M97 Scorpions in armored formations, the M99 Sentinel has mated the proven hull of the M97 to the XM-40 turret (Note: the turret was pulled off another creation, and I modified it for my needs. Props to the turrets creator). The M99 is armed with two rapid-fire MK-70 35mm cannons with a maximum effective range of around 1.5 miles. Pricing is at P$2.0M. The cannons can be rechambered for any caliber smaller than 47mm at the buyers request. It has a crew of four: driver, commander, loader, and gunner. Ammunition is carried in 2,000 round drums, and ammunition capacity is around 24,000 rounds, or 12 drums. Armor on the hull is the same as the original M97, and the turret can resist 20mm cannons and 155mm airbusts. We are now accepting orders of manufacture at this time.

    @Alix451 I see.

    And 30mm M15 is the cannon itself. The ammunition is 30x250mm Pilotmario, used in the M8, M9, and M15 automatic cannons.

    @pilotmario the weapons can be replaced or rechambered to any caliber smaller than 47mm and is offered from HMG rounds to 47mm rounds. However, to ease manufacturing, we can install a purpose-built 30mm cannon or rechamber the MK-70 for 30mm M15

    I think they will sell well if you offer them in 30mm M15, as that is a cannon round used very commonly around the world.
