The Type 47 Raven is a mainly Japanese developed main battle tank built in both the ROC and Japan. The first prototypes came about in 1947, and it will be in production within the next 6 years. There will be 4 manufacturing sites in the ROC and one in Japan.
The tank is armed with a licensed built 105mm L7 gun and has ten degrees of gun depression. It also has a 12.7x108mm coaxial machine gun and provisions to mount a 14.5mm heavy machine gun for the commander.
I has a top speed of 34 mile per hour and the ability to manage a 70% grade. It can also hold out on a 40% slide slope. The tank is powered by the ZTS-680 diesel engine which provides about 680 horsepower, which is used via the TTS-1 . . . a 7 speed transmission. It has two reverse gears and five forward.
The tank's armor is great, at least it will be for the next decade or so. It has an 190mm of frontal hull armor at a 60 degrees and 295mm (rounded) of turret armor at the front of the pan-handle turret. The hull sides are 90mm at the most and 80mm at the least, with the side of the turret 120mm thick. The rear of the turret and hull are both 60mm thick.
The tank has a crew of four, with the gunner and commander being served by some of the most advanced gun sights and view blocks available in the late 40s. There are a few small issues for the loader, due to the confined space . . . however they are minimal. The driver is also serviced by similar quality view blocks and does have some night systems. The production model has slightly smoother suspension and 2 plane gun stabilization and is going to be produced in huge numbers. It also has a few slight changes to the gun and an better sighting system. The tank also has an better NBC system. The crew is also afforded better ergonomics due to a slightly different layout. It also has a better fire suppression system.

--To be finished
@Pilotmario k look forward to seeing it.
@MadBomber I'm actually updating the M6A1 to the M6A3.
@Pilotmario Excellent. I will do the same.
@MadBomber Sure! But know that we will be very objective with this thing.
@Pilotmario Yes. We would like to acquire a battalion of your M6A1 Ardents for study and evaluation. We would be willing to set-up billing arrangements or send you a battalion of Type-47's in exchange as part of a technology transfer.
Would you like some of our tanks?
