GENERAL INFORMATION
Minotaur is a fictional self-propelled artillery installation based on the Swedish BKAN 1c.
This modification has a howitzer reaching a length of 100 calibers, or 15.5 meters.
155-millimeter high-explosive shells are used here, which are located in the rear of the swinging part of the turret. The initial velocity of the projectiles reaches 1525 meters per second, which allows the Minotaur to shoot at great distances.
MOBILITY
Despite its large size, the Minotaur has a relatively low mass of 32 tons, which allows the 350-horsepower engine to accelerate it to 107 kilometers per hour. The angle of rotation of the wheels reaches 15 degrees, which provides high maneuverability (and no, even at maximum speed it does not turn on its side).
ARMOR
The armor of the Minotaur can save the crew from large-caliber machine guns, and in theory, a sheet of additional armor of the lower frontal part can save from cumulative projectiles, and dynamic protection of the upper frontal part also from small projectiles. The armor from the sides has no additional protection, except for two logs, which should be used in case the tank (or self-propelled gun) gets stuck in the mud. You can not look at the armor of the stern, since it will save only from small stones. The turret has quite good armor, reinforced from the forehead with sheets of mounted armor, on which 2 machine guns are held (read about the armament below).
CREW
The crew of the Minotaur consists of 4 people (commander, gunner, radio operator and driver), of which 2 are located in the hull, and 2 more in the turret. Each crew member has its own hatch. Both the gunner and the commander can control the gun.
ARMAMENT
The Minotaur's armament consists of a 155 mm howitzer and two machine guns. The gun has an ammunition load of 60 shells, its rate of fire reaches 12 rounds per minute. The angles of horizontal guidance are not limited by anything, and the angles of vertical guidance are -7° ... +20°, the turret rotation speed is about 10 degrees per second (I know it's very slow, but otherwise it looked ridiculous). The machine guns are attached to the turret, so they cannot rotate separately from it, but their vertical guidance angles are very different - from -3... +36. their damage is quite small, but it is enough to shoot down planes (firing range is about 2.2 kilometers)
READ CAREFULLY (!) - the gun cannot fire at speeds above 36 kilometers per hour; AG1 is responsible for activating machine guns
CONTROL

To go forward, press W; to go backward, press S; to turn left/right, press A/D respectively. To activate the winch with magnets, press AG2; to activate the machine guns, press AG.
To control the gun and machine guns, you need to switch to the "AIMING" camera and turn it in the right direction. Comfortable.
I said everything so that you could get on it and destroy a couple of planes and ships
