A PDI Ardent M6A4 UPS TUCK II with an automatic loader in lieu of a manual loader, allowing for a faster rate of fire (15 rpm vs 12 rpm), an automated system that allows for easy switching of ammunition types. This vehicle features the TUCK II kit, including side-skirts, rear spaced armor, additional spaced armor on the turret sides, 120mm Coilgun M5A7 with more powerful coils, the Sentry RCWS with a 12.7mm M26A1 machine gun, new commander's hatch, smoke grenade launchers, Cuttlefish ACS, and the Trapshooter APS.
The last system is a new one, designed to defeat incoming missiles with what amounts to a giant shotgun. Said unit has four shots, and is in two units, each unit covering the other side. Relying on Doppler radar to track offending rocket or missile, it has a 210 degree kill area facing the front, with a 30 degree interlocking field where both units can engage a target. Each unit can cover an area 120 degrees wide against projectiles at the range of 100 meters.

@FlipposMC
@PyrusEnderhunter Thanks!
@JakeTheDogg No. It is designed to destroy unguided rockets or guided missiles. A shotgun blast will probably not deflect higher-velocity munitions such as shell or shot. However, the armor at all angles, with the TUCK II armor panels, is able to resist said attacks.
Recoil-less rifles rely on HEAT shells, and the vehicle's base armor, in tandem with TUCK I or TUCK II ceramic-plastoid armor panels, will stop HEAT rounds easily.
@Pilotmario cooooooool
@Pilotmario Holy Shot Trap!!!
@GoldenEagle Our newest tank.
@JakeTheDogg If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
@MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation Yes, it's an upgrade to many upgrades, but it still works and kicks complete a$$.
