Its been a while, hasn't it?
This is my second attempt at an MBT. It turned out pretty well. . Here's the competition rules:
"There were simple requirements:
1. The tank must exceed 60 mph in a straight line on pavement and 50 mph on offroad conditions.
2. The tank must have a fully rotating turret and at least one .50 cal on it.
3. The tank wll equip a 150mm main gun firing at least 10 different rounds (including SABOT, HESH, HEAT, APCR, AP,, and HE).
4. the e tank must outperform the others in the competition.
By the way, make sure all entries are successors!
.
Controls: Pitch= fwd/bkwd
Roll=turn
trim=turret rotation
VTOL= gun elevation/depression
brake= brake
yaw= move machine gun on top of turret.
WARNING- Tank becomes unstable over ~70 mph

Now, time for some fake history!
The US military needed an upgrade to the M1A3, so, in order to retain superiority, a competition was activated (this is the competition for y'all).

The M2A1 exceeded all of the rules, maintaining a speed of over 100 mph (albeit unsafely) on and off road. The tank was entered in, and is currently competing with the other designs (your tanks!) Thanks, and Enjoy!
