M1E4 based tank
I love critiquing fictional tanks, so when I saw a good looking tank in popular I decided to critique it. In the pinned comment in the autocredit, I mentioned a list of flaws, but I will restate what I changed:
.
Reload speed is now realistic: 10.5 seconds for main gun, 30mm autocannon is the same
.
added smoke launchers; not functional, might make second post later adding smoke functionality
.
Changed 30mm gun from APFSDS to HEAT-FS
.
added 40mm coaxial gun (unrealistically high caliber but this is already a large tank and traditional high cal guns looked too small)
.
The hull remained the same since it was iconic to the design
.
Added camera for the gunner, who was blind in previous design
.
Realistic shell quantity, now only 40 130mm shells
.
max speed lowered to 74mph, turning speed reduced as well
.
Turret elevation reduced to realistic levels
.
Deactivating AG8 will turn off tracks so you can aim 30mm gun easier
.
a few more things but I forgot
.
.
.
Tl;Dr I made it realistic
