Various Notes or Comments: The Rat is quick, lightly armed and armored and is useful for quickly placing or evacuating troops. The armor even covers the wheels to protect them from being shot out.

OOC: The tanks have way too little armour(Milan can take out 40 inches of armour... you have 4 inches). They weigh very very little. Some of the guns are unbelievable to say the least(Recoilless machine guns, recoilless guns dont work in confined spaces like tanks)(Depleted uranium guns which fire over two miles. Most tank guns dont have a range over 3000km, and realistically 2000km.)(Napalm Flamethrower, wont even start). Just trying to help you make more realistic tanks. Depleted Uranium isnt all that its made up to be.

OOC: These are first generation tanks. Celdrone military researchers are more interested in killing the enemy then defending against them. An A-1 abrams can kill an enemy thats about 2 to 2 and a half miles away. Whats wrong with Napalm flame throwers? The Recoilless Machin guns are located on the outside of the tank only the controls are inside.

OOC: Napalm is hard to explain, but it cant be used like a flamethrower. IT can be used like ay greek fire, but thats a very very short ranged thing and would only be useful against infantry...

And yes, the M256 120mm Smoothbore can reach up to 4000km(12000f, about 2.2 miles). However, that is an L44 cannon, and the smaller round means more range but weaker power. You didn't say what type of cannon it was, but for a 13 ton tank, it cant support that large of a gun, or the recoil would break it fairly quickly(and you cant really make it recoilless cause again, its in a confined space, and would kill the crew.

OOC: Napalm flame throwers actually exist I saw them on an episode of mail call. The produce a fire that burns at like 800 degrees. I'll do better with my second generation tanks.

OOC: Maybe its the words that are confusing me, as flamethrowers are technically flame being thrown, while napalm is a substance that is explosive but is basically more than fire. As long as its all good, and I know what its like to start out tank developing. My old stuff was horrible.
