Not really, although it cannot cross bridges it is designed totravel underwater thanks to a snorkeling mechanism. Repairs are not hard either.

Wonderful, going 23-40 Mp/h on the ocean floor to reach the nation because it can't be airlifted or put on a ship.

You can put them on ships, but no MBT can be airlifted.

It seems more like a fixed-ark artillery cannon, from the pictures and technical information... isn't it abit of a hassle having cannons that are always pointed forward?

Fixed- or limited-traverse forward arc would be a disadvantage in an offensive manuever, but would count for little on the defensive. But yeah, still, you basically got yourself a big mobile artillery peice.

Nope, its fully rotatable. The turret is electronically turned.
The pentagonal stucture contains a bunker where up to five men can fight from.
The square stucture is where the commander sits. Both stuctures rotate to move the guns.

Id try and find a picture that looked like the turrent moved. Because in your picture it looks like to move the turrent it would have to move the cockpit and everything.
Link not working, deleted.
