KRIEG XM28 Victoria II
"The Vicky II was a wonder for tankers. It was as if it was the man who designed the machine was a tank crewman. Lots of internal space, amazing ergonomics, easy egress, and even temperature control! The rear ramp is a real novel feature that would make our life so much easier. Not that it won't be knocked out often, because I've seen the footage of this thing taking 155mm armor-piercing without any real damage."
-SSgt. Mike Walters, Paterno-American Army Armored Corps.
(1) activates turret, (2) activates RCWS, (3) activates commander's hatch, (4) activates rear door. VTOL and Trim control tracks. Pitch and roll control weapons. Throttle opens and closes hatches. A Paternian prototype main battle tank competing with the PDI M23, emphasizing crew survivability while employing more conventional technologies. Weighing as much as the original Victoria, it is more heavily armored through improved sloping and new armor composites not known when the original Victoria's development began in 1981.
The engine and transmission was moved to the front in order to add as additional protection for the crew in the event of compromised frontal armor. An escape hatch was added to the back in order to facilitate easier egress into and out of the tank. If some main gun ammunition is removed, it can accomodate a squad of infantry in the back. The XM28 Victoria II lost out to the M23 Chariot due to the latter's emphasis on the integration of a whole family of vehicles sharing a common chassis. However, it is still available for export.

@PINK I suppose. We have bases in Hokkaido and the Kuril Islands, as well as in Subic Bay and Indonesia.
@Pilotmario Oh, and I could challenge your navy with the help of Japan . . . which is a part of my nation.
@Pilotmario He is basically independent, but he is the leader of Korea . . . Korea is no longer under his influence as he has been killed in the RP.
@PINK I believe that an independent Japan is beneficial to your security.
@Gmanndo1000 I can write up a revolution.
And nobody challenges the Paternian Navy.
@Gmanndo1000 You left for a Sicily, and then got dragged back to the ROC.
I could try, but PINK would just rek me, thanks though.
@Gmanndo1000 You could try independence movement.
I feel that you can probably run a country well enough that it is a possibility.
@PINK I hate being part of another country
@Gmanndo1000 You don't have procurement rights.
There you go. @Gmanndo1000
@Pilotmario We'll buy it
$10 billion. @Gmanndo1000
We would like to mass-produce these, how much for building rights?
@Alix451 Thanks!
@Pilotmario looks great
@Pilotmario
yep
@DankDorito Interested?
I suppose. @MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation
@Pilotmario so I can claim the same?
The armor. We got a 155mm cannon, put it on a jig aimed squarely at it and shot it. @MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation
@Pilotmario then how does it become non penetrable upto 155mm
120mm. @MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation
@Pilotmario Whats this calibre?
1) we don't have any gun artillery in our Army inventory above 203mm caliber, and only in Battery Salem, guarding the port of Veracruz, based off the Des Moines-class heavy cruiser turret. We only have 12 batteries of M110A2 howitzers, all in Mexican Army service. The largest, general issue caliber for a gun or howitzer is 155mm.
2) Why make an expensive, oversized gun system when we can use a plane?
3) The 155mm cannon's APFSDS-RC ammunition matches standard 230mm ammunition. @JakeTheDogg
