History

The RNV-127 was a fast tank designed in mid WW2 to scout out enemy units with its speed, and support allies with it’s ATT/120 50mm gun, decent armor, and 3 machine guns. It was disadvantaged on rough terrain because of the low hull, and could only reach the impressive speed of 47mph on flatter terrain. Most RNV-127s has a crew of 4: a commander, gunner (who also loads the gun), a driver, and a radio operator, who could also operate the hull mg. (Later variants would also refuge and autoloader) Most were assigned to FSF squadrons, which meant “Fast Scout Frontline.” (I had to make that up on the spot cuz I forgot the original meaning) They would get in close to enemy lines, and either just, scout, for artillery and other friendly units, or try to cause as much chaos as they could. They didn’t have all this guns for nothing. Overall, they performed well at their designated role, and from 1943-1968, about 1500 of these were produced with only a few still in tact today.

Notes

  • very proud of this one, to me, it overall looks pretty nice, and performs well. Don’t try to get hit by anything though, you WILL “start” dying and your tank WILL go flying

  • the new wheels make it so that you can make things that somewhat look like tracks, it’s cool

  • I finally figured out how to set a top speed, so you can’t go 300mph now, sorry hehehehe

Anyways,

Enjoy!
