M80A1 Mjolnir II SEPv2

Advanced Main Battle Tank


So this is a drunken build of mine, just taking the turret given to me by Kerlon and adding on to it, then slapping it on the M20A5's hull. That, and this was an excuse to dust off my old weapon building skills. I also modeled a GPMG from scratch for this. Anyway, enjoy the apex predator of every MBT I've ever designed.


General Description

Research and comparisons were conducted amongst the company's previous MBT designs, specifically referring to the M16A4 Valkyrie II, the M20A5 Mjolnir, and the M78 Skofnung. It was found that the M78 fell behind in several categories, especially maximum reverse speed, acceleration speed, and maximum traversable slope. In other words, the Skofnung is best suited for urban warfare, even more so than the urban combat made M20A5.
Further research was conducted, and it was deemed that a new variant of the combat-proven hT-125 was needed. The hT-125B1 hyper-velocity cannon was developed, and proved far more capable than the hT-125 and hT-125A1. Numerous other modifications were made, including a Gunner's Machine Gun, a change from the 15mm CROWS with a FB-150 15mm HMG to a 25mm CROWS sporting the all-new hT-25A1 25mm autocannon. In essence, the M80A1 SEPv2 is the Apex Predator of Spartan Ballistics MBT designs, and can face off against almost any modern and futuristic threat you can throw at it. Abrams X? No problem. T14 Armata? We've all heard the rumors. This will turn them into facts. KF51 Panther? Hell, the Mjolnir II is a Lion God compared to it. With all being said, Spartan Ballistics is proud to present the Mjolnir II.

Yeah so I think I've found I'm at my most creative when I'm moderately intoxicated, but don't take that as an excuse to drink. Everyone is different. I do not condone drinking, especially when under 21 (Regardless of your country's minimum drinking age, I'm referring to my country, the USA). That being said, I do hope you enjoy the Mjolnir II, and I would like to request that you please leave any feedback regarding this build in the comments below. As always, feel free to leave an upvote, and a spotlight if capable, and I thank you for checking out my newest MBT design.
