New infantry fighting vehicle of M.Corp ground forces. It's fully amphibious, has good off-road capabilities (as long as you don't drive it like a sports car), and features realistic steering system for tracked vehicle. It has a thick composite armor, capable of withstanding 20mm AP rounds to the sides, and 50mm canon fire to the front. It can also be equipped with reactive armor for additional protection.
Primary armament of M.Corp Panther is a 30mm auto canon with 600 rounds ready to fire and twice as many in standard reserve. As a secondary armament, it has a 7.62mm machine gun paired with the main gun. It also features a dual ATGM launcher, which gives it a limited anti-tank capability.
It has capacity for 9 infantrymen plus commander, driver, and a gunner.
Maximum speed is 55mph on road and 40mph off road (do not exceed for realism).
As an active from of protection, the vehicle is equipped with ten smoke granade launchers on the turret.
Sensory array includes day and night optics and laser rangefinders.

Instructions:

The vehicle itself is controlled by pitch and roll while on the ground. Throttle and yaw control water propulsion. Also, Yaw controls a backup turning system for on-land maneuvering.

Turret and gun are controlled by using VTOL and Trim leavers. Main gun is set to AG1, and so is the range finder/target acquisition device. Machine gun is set to AG2.

Enjoy.

    @Sauce yeah, it might have some similarities with that one. I have borrowed stuff from many IFVs to make this one. I saw loading ramp door on Russian T 15, gun ports are from Italian Darado IFV, which this vehicle eventually came to resemble, and I took a bunch of other details from a few other vehicles. Thanks for the upvote.

    @BogdanX my old specialty used to be ships. I just adapted that system for a smaller platform. Thanks for so thoroughly testing my vehicle.

    @BogdanX lol yup. Also, that is what I call constructive criticism or feedback. It's suggesting improvements. I love getting those, because, as you said, it means you are actually giving a damn about my build, and not just upvoting for the picture.

    @BogdanX constructive criticism is always welcome, my friend. I will try that on my next vehicle. Also, how did you like the turning system? It can pivot on the spot.
