This is the Schilpad (Turtle) Mk5rB2p 90mm Command LAV, which is a modification of the Schilpad Mk5r. It's a cheap, light and mobile tank destroyer, designed to destroy even the thoughest tanks of the United States of Simpleplanes. But instead of the standard tank destroyer variant, this model features a longrange 90mm smoothbore cannon and a radar system which can detect enemys upto 5 miles away. It also has a advanced cummunication system onboard, so it can share it's radar observation with other units.

It also features an additional, extreme range antenna and a tiny satalite dish. These are mounted to the platform in order to turn it into a mobile command centre, especially usefull during offencive missions. It also features some minor upgrades to braking and gun elevation.

Mk5: 5th genaration.
r: realistic topspeed.
B4: updated brake system (version 4).
p: Increased HP.
e: Increased max gun elevation.
C: Repositioned cockpit.

HOW TO CONTROLL:
1. Activate primary engine. This allows you to drive around. Use WASD to move. Divable "1" if you want to use the turret.
2. Allows you to rotate the turret. You can use WAS SD or the mouse joystick to aim the gun. (Note: only the machinegun w works at this moment.)
6. Activates all-wheel steering. Not recomended when driving fast.
7. Activates the 2nd engine, which means the APC will now have more power and 6-wheel drive (instead of RWD).

I DO NEED SOME HELP WITH THE FOLLOWING:
1. How do I decrease engine power even further? I want the Mk4 to have a topspeed of 70mph, instead of the unrealistic 160 ish.
SOLVED! Special thanks to Shimakaze: https://www.simpleplanes.com/u/Shimakaze

2. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to make the main cannon work?
SOLVED!

3. The brakes don't quite work the way they are supossed to. They make the whole thing do a frontflip. Suggestions?
