This tank was designed arround its main armorment, a 155mm high velocity cannon. This gun is the most important feature of this tank. 35mm bigger then the M-1A1/A2's cannon, the 155mm fires an extreemly high velocity round, that contains a powerful charge. A charge powerful enough to destroy an Abrams at 7 miles distance.

Cost is 2.5 million USD per unit. UNAOTO members get a .5 million USD discount. Other discounts will be given on a case by case basis. Licenses are avalible.

The Tiger is vertually identical to the Ocelot externally, with most diffrences being related to the engine and armor composition. The origional name for this tank was Ocelot T.Mk.2, but it was decided to make it a new type.

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/leopard-05.jpg

The engine in the Tiger is a 24 cylinder W diesel, developing 3,000 bhp. This large reserve of power is used to give the Tiger around the best acceleration of any tank ever. This engine is also highly efficent, giveing the same range as the Ocelot, but with twice the cylinders.

The armor is where the diffrence between the tank destroyer and MBT is evident. The Tiger's armor package is mostly of light weight composites, with steel in small quanity. The purpose of useing composites is to keep the weight down, while the plastics themselves are over 5 times stronger then the steel that would normally have been used. This also has the advantage over Depleated Uranium of not being radioactive.

The cannon, which made the Ocelot so desired, is the same. 155mm HV. The diffrence is, this time the shell information has been released. The 155mm HV cannon fires a green round. This green round is a Shaped charge composite round, with 55lbs of explosive contained inside of it. In order to defeat newer types of armor, a small explosive charge is carried on an extention on the front of the projectile. This charge acts to weaken the armor, literally "cracking" the armor, allowing the shaped charge to destroy its target.

HEAT round? Any idiot with Chobham can deflect that! Of course, our tanks are armed with small nukes...wait. You never heard that. Why would a space colony nation want nukes?

The max range isn't 750 miles. The most fuel efficient tank is the Leclerc and it has a range of 500km. This monster would be considerable less then that.

You are one of the dumbest person on this web site.

Really buddy. You no nothing about anything about military knowledge whatsoever and acuse someone else of idiocy.

New American that is.

Jonistan (what is spelling, duh) you are fairly correct.

Good point, reduced.

psst, you need the http:// to make the images work.

A developement of the Ocelot tank destroyer, the main diffrences are related to the engine and armor. The origional name for this tank was Ocelot T.Mk.2, but it was decided to make it a new type.

The engine in the Tiger is a 24 cylinder W diesel, developing 2,400 bhp. This large reserve of power is used to give the Tiger around the best acceleration of any tank ever. This engine is also highly efficent, giveing even greater range then that of the Ocelot.

In future, make sure you have http:// after the [img] or the picture won't come up.

Bump.

It wasnt the lack of the http://, it was the lack of correct URLs.

Intersting, that has a slightly larger cannon than our "Sabre" heavy tank, the Sabre has a 150 mm smothebore main gun.

Right, and my tank can kill aggressors at up to 8.5 miles.

You are one of the dumbest person on this web site.People. The plural of person is people.

Does anyone else find irony in this flaming? :)

quite. Bump.

The plural of person is persons. Not very well acknowledged but still a fact. Yes I do find that ironic since I put person instead of persons (or people, I don't care). Anyway I should note that 8.5 km would likely be the max range for 155mm main guns. Effective range would likely be much less. Trust me (the fool who doesn't know how to pluralize words) I've done my research. bump (you're welcome).

Hump
(Makeing lots of little posts!)

Hm, if what'shisface's tanks had guns as big as this one they could fire small nuclear devices. Of course it'd turn into an artillery piece, but..never mind.

Anyway, I dunno (Walmington's best tank carries a 49 or 60mm 6pdr anti-tank gun), but..isn't this thing..huge? I mean, it carries a gun that would normally require a huge ugly looking turret..that of a big mechanised artillery piece..like the GCT

This thing looks like it pretends to display a pretty good profile and to carry a good ammo load, with the same gun (bore wise)

Seversky, may we buy 200 of those please? 8)

The diffrence is, it doesnt need any elevation, relitively. And unlike western 155mm Self propelleds, it does not have seperate shells and powder. Its all in one package.

2.5 * 200 = 500 million. - 50 million discount for being first = 450 million USD. Please wire.

All right.

Ah, makes some sense I suppose.
