Kazakhstania

Kazakhstania has for too long been forced to use IFV's as a pose to APC's, and the lowly BTR-90 does no longer cut it for troop movement and protection. Therefore, we have created a new APC to rival even the highest APC's in the world. It is a revolutionary APC, and we hope it will lead us into the new world order, offering its services for many years to come.
So, lets announce, the:
BTR-90UM Armored Personnel Carrer

Design
Built around the strengthened base of the BTR-90, a relatively new Russian Vehicle. The BTR-90 is similar to all the previous BTR vehicles, but our latest version has strenthened armor made of a Titanium Alloy, inner coated with a Radiation Soaking Material and padded with Heat Insulated Steel. It is a crew and passenger proteting vehicle, and has been lengthened to allow for more troops to be carried.
The inner design is centered around the turret. The gunner and commander sit under the turret, and the driver sits in a reclined seat in the front. In the gap between sits the engine, highly defended and coated with insluation. The ammo hold is to the left of the vehicle, in a Tungsten, Titanium and Ceramics. The passenger compartment is to the rear, with overhead lockers, top hatches and a rear door.
The turret is very similar to that of a BMP-3. It is gently sloping, and well protected by Titanium Alloys, and Epoxy Resin Honeycomb and Tungsten. All around, the armor on the vehicle is about as strong as an IFV, but is ultra light to allow for greater speed and maneuverability. The armor is not cheap, but makes up a lot of the tanks defences.
Systems
The systems on this vehicle are the same as on the M-26UM Main Battle Tank, and are among the most sophisticated in the world:
[quote]First off, there is the Joint Tactical Information Distribution System. It allows tanks to talk to other tanks, records and sends data and manages the tanks communications systems. It is high speed and is managed by the SuperComputer just in front of the engine. It looks after inter-tank and inside tank information, and can communicate with any JTIDS equipped vehicle/unit on the planet. It either uses Satellite Communication or laser Communication.
The little antennae on the tanks roof does a lot. It transmits all satellite, radio and laser communications to communicate in any way. It is directly linked to the SuperComputer and can transmit to any covered area on the globe. This may seem minor, but is central in communication.
The 360-degree camera systems are mounted on the roof and are integrated with the Thermal and Night Vision Imaging systems. There are 2, for the Gunner and Commander. Screens at each position show the tanks status and various other things, which are monitored by sensors and the SuperComputer.
Both the gunner and commander enable the targeting system. It conveys messages to the Autoloader, co-axial gun and turret-mounted gun. The aiming system incorporates wind, temperature and target positioning and caters for it in adjusting the gun. The gunner can even target manually. It can be set to aim at Heat giving objects or targets given to it by the JTIDS. It also manages the targeting of the Anti Missile Laser, depending on which mode it is set to. This means quick and effective anti missile targeting.
The tank economy system monitors the engine and tread movement and modifies it depending on where the gunner wants the tank to go. It also varies the water exhaust flow, and manages the movement controls. A full NBC system is installed with filters in between the crew compartments and various exhaust systems.
The Jammer installed is a Multi-Frequency Electronic Jammer, nicknamed ARENA-4. It can jam electronics up to 600 metres away guaranteed and less so for hardened systems. An anti jammer-jammer called Dragon is installed, which uses jamming to cancel other jammers out.

The supercomputer itself is ultra fast and can hold, give and pass on info in nano seconds. It is liquid cooled, amazingly by the liquid produced by the engine. It maintains everything in the tank, and is vital.[/b]
Weaponary
The arnament of this vehicle is very, very good for an APC. It includes a 90mm Cannon, a 30mm Co-Axial AutoCannon and a 12.7mm "NSVK" Machine Gun. The 90mm gun has 50 roudns of ammo, in a vertical axis AutoLoader, Infinite-2. It can fire Sabot, HEAT and HE-FRAG. It can also fire modified Kornet ATGM's. The 30mm Co-Axial has 250 rounds of HE rounds and 250 of Super-Shot AP rounds. The Co-Axial Machine Gun also contains 200 roudns of ammo. On top of the turret, to commanders weapon is the NSVK 12.7mm Machine Gun, on an automatic mounting.
ATGM's can be fitted in two four missile pods, Kornet ATGM's. These are the latest versions, and can ake out tanks such as the M1A2 and Leopard 2, even fitted with ERA. The countermeasure smoke dispensers are four forward facing and 3 rear facing. These can be loaded with varying loads.

The latest Anti Missile Laser System has been fitted, complete with its infrared sensors. It can target and take down most anti tank missiles, and has been known to blast Tomahawks in testing. It can also target tank shells, if theya re detected early enough. This protects the tank from most misile attacks launched against it.
