Frontal Armor: 600mm
Rear Armor: 200mm
Side Armor: 400mm
Turret Armor: 40mm
Engine: MAN/Honeywell Ausf. A

Cost: 6 million USD



Pz. VIII Nebuchadnezzar

Macabean Panzerwaffe Industries is producing a stable 20,000 per year, if demand is hot or 200 per year if demand is low. The Panzer VIII incorporates the best of the Merkava 4 with new techniques and features invented by Macabean engineers. The Nebuchadnezzar is offered for export, without production rights, for 6 million USD each, bulk order (2,000 +) with a discount of 10%.


Armaments

Main Gun: 140mm smooth bore with a Viaco thermal shroud reducing the bending of the barrel, due to high heat or enviromental features. Internal "R" rings, a technique solely used by Macabean engineers, reduces recoild by supressing the rear firing mechanism. Then the muzzle reacts in order to propell the rounds at magnificent speeds, knocking out up to 2,000mm of armor, and having an effective range of 5,000 meters. The tank hold 60 mixed rounds.
>>>munitions<<<
1. Conventional 140mm Anti-tank piercing rounds
2. HEAT-MP T M325 rounds
3. Macabean Heavy Rounds

MG's: The top gunner and the commander, both, have M90's. The M90 is a 40mm rapid firing heavy machinegun capable of cooling in under 20 seconds after firing over 3,000 rounds continously. The gun is made to cut down in droves and to be effective until all enemies are down. The tank hold over 30,000 rounds of ammunition.

60mm Mortar: The mortar fires illuminary rounds at 2,000 meters and standard 60mm mortars.


Fire and Control

The Nebuchadnezzar computer can lock on and fire on the move and at moving targets. The system includes sigh stabilizers upon two axis, a thermal tracker, and a dynamic cant angle indicator. Inter-communication systems work on two channels, between tanks and between the crew members. They are relatively safe from enemy spy radios, and such.


Engine

V-18 diesel engine rated at 1,800 horsepower can move the tank at a max speed of 57mph. Two fuel tanks in the rear and on et the front. Max distance of 423km and six gear transmission.


Hull Improved frontal armor with increased driver field of view. A camera improves rear view. Modular special armor protects the turret while the front has 900mm of armor, well sloped. The underside is fitted with limited armor to protect against mines. Tests have seen the armor block air to ground missiles as well as conventional AT missiles.


Crew

Commander, Top Gunner, Loader, Gunner, and Driver.
Carries an additional 6 soldiers and 2 stretchers.
4 hatches have been installed.

Crusader


The system uses a revolutionary new system to completely automate the loading of the artillery ammunition and incindiaries. Capable of launching its 100 lb. projectile over 40 km, it's rate of fire, thanks to the automated system, is 10 rounds per minute for the first 3 minutes, and a sustained firing rate of 3-6 rpm. It also comes with a .50 cal machine gun.

For targets within 30 km, the Crusader can fire up to 8 rounds in a simultaneous attack - that is, by firing at different angles and velocities, the Crusader can strike an area with 8 rounds which land nearly simultaneously (within 4 seconds). The Crusader can be fully reloaded by an A100B in 12 minutes.

Because the loading, preparation, and firing are all automatic, the crew brought out of considerable danger and the rate of fire does not suffer from crew fatigue. The Crusader can hold up to 60 complete rounds.

There is also a resupply module (RG-A100B) which is based on the Crusader chassis. This is capable of holding up to 120 rounds (supplies for two Crusaders) and contains an automatic loading system specifically designed to connect to and supply the Crusader. The resupply module also resupplies Crusaders with gas as it is reloading. The A100B ensures that the Crusaders can remain effective for indefinite periods of time, with both crews under full armor and NBC protection.

Just out of curiosity, how many torpedoes armed with four tons of plastech can one of your battleships handle?

Just out of curiosity, how many torpedoes armed with four tons of plastech can one of your battleships handle?
Don't ask me such extreme questions... freaking naval expert :P .. lol j/k... ask me in English lol

I meant, how many torpedoes with the explosive power of a 10 megaton warhead can one of your battleships handle?

Less than one! MTs? That's a nuke torp.

I meant, how many torpedoes with the explosive power of a 10 megaton warhead can one of your battleships handle?

Yea...I doubt anything on the sea can withstand that....

Less than one! MTs? That's a nuke torp.

Its not a nuke torp... Its a very long torpedo with a solid-rocket fuel propulsion system... There was a book about that...

Less than one! MTs? That's a nuke torp.

Its not a nuke torp... Its a very long torpedo with a solid-rocket fuel propulsion system... There was a book about that...

In that case... erm.. you're going to have to figure it yourself... using mathematical equations..which I wont do myself due to extreme lazyness.

I meant, how many torpedoes with the explosive power of a 10 megaton warhead can one of your battleships handle?

Yea...I doubt anything on the sea can withstand that....

That's what I thought... And because of its solid-rocket fuel propulsion system, it can go plus 500 knots an hour, which is extremely fast...
