The B-001"Bad Neighbor" Tracked Artillery Vehicle

My nation, after a long period of R&D, has officially begun to produce the BN-001 "Bad Neighbor" Tracked Artillery Vehicle for service with our Army and Marine Corps. The vehicle itself is massive, very expensive and very deadly, therefore only a limited number will ever see service in the Armed Forces, and an even smaller amount see active duty. A large quantity, however, are available for purchase at a very reasonable price.

The main armaments are 2 105 mm smoothbore guns capable of firing APFDS as well as HEAT rounds, mounted on a turret with limited traverse. They provide excellent firepower against enemy armor when in a defensive role. The Artillery module is comprised of a well armored superstructure extending from a foot behind the turret to the end of the vehicle. The superstructure opens horizontally to form the combat platform. The picture below shows the artillery module with the superstructure opened. The 152 mm short-barrelled howitzer fires specially designed high explosive projectiles or HEAR (high explosive artillery rounds). The HEAR amunition is a chemical energy projectile that explodes on contact, releasing a form of liquid napalm.

The armor is reinforced steel armor and has both a Kevlar-lined chassis and a pressurized crew compartment to guard against ballistic, nuclear, biological, and chemical threats. It can be outfited with active ERA protection as well as additional passive armor skirts.

The commander and driver are provided with Night vision, thermal imaging, a fire control system, stabilised sights, and there is a mounting for external fuel tanks on the artillery superstructure. The deadliness of this vehicle comes at a high price in mobility and agility.

Crew: 6
Combat Weight: 362,938 lbs
Engine Power: 5,000 hp
Max Speed: 30 mph
Armament:
Main: 2 x Automatic Loading 105 mm smoothbore guns
Secondary: 1 x 152 mm short-barrelled Howitzer
Anti-Aircraft: 1 x 12.7mm machine gun
Co-axial: 1 x 7.62 mm machine gun

For Sale Price: $10 million (USD) <- Limited Time Discount!

If I were modern tech, I'd buy one ;)

Y'know, I bet if you melted down every single S-W Armored Car I've built and combined them into one, it's weigh about the same as one of these. God bless my 1/3" armor! :D

Thank you for your patronage! Since you are an ally I will chop the price down to $12 million, I would make it even lower, but I need to make some profit.

So your total is $120,000,000 (USD). I am using World Corp Frieghtline to transport these goods so they should be there in a few days (IC).

$240 million it is then! They have undergone extensive training on Grand Island, and have proven themselves very versatile, I am currently trying to develop an amphibious version for the landings in Licentamo but it is difficult with a vehicle as heavy as this. World Corp is transporting it, so it should be there very soon, especially since we are all in the same region!

(ooc: how was Cooperstown?)

if they were original I'd buy, but I'd rather not considering it's just a C&C rip.
31-07-2003, 08:33
Do you mind if I 'subtly' alter the 100 (which I have wired you for)?
I was thinking of maybe using them for my 'machine intelligence' improved AI experiments.
If they're successful, I'll let you know and we could discuss further business.
Alternatively, I'd appreciate it if you could custom-rig at least 50 of these to accomodate my 'Metal Tomb' bio-cockpits.
A business doing pleasure with you.

It was never used in any C&C game, besides I have been developing it for a really long time, before I even found the picture. You could ask any of my ANH allies. The description was written well before the picture and is completely original. Why don't you codemn the people who use pictures from Anime series and such? Isn't it the same thing?

All those conditions are quite acceptable, you can modify it in anyway you see fit. Those custom-rigs will take some time, a few more days perhaps. The first 50 are being sent right away.

*mumbles dazedly*

"Buy Tracked Artillery Vehicle, Buy Tracked Artillery Vehicle, Buy Tracked Artillery Vehicle, Buy Tracked Artillery Vehicle..."

I'll take 200, with the 152mm howitzer replaced with the Bofors Auto 155mm gun. :twisted:

The bofors gun is a clip loading Arty gun using 5 round clips which can fire one round every 2 secs til the 5 round clip is finished. the same mechanisim as their rapid firing 40mm scaled up. the clips can be changed in 15 seconds. so every 25 seconds 5 round land on the target! not bad compared to 10 secs per round found in handloaded guns.

Gonna hole my budget, But I can afford them... Barely.

Okay, it will take a little time to modify the gun. It will cost you an added 4 million dollars to the total. If that is acceptable I will begin modification immediately and ship them out as soon as I can.
