Bio:
The Bear Ultra Heavy APC is one of, if not the most protected and heaviest APC out there. It is designed to bring troops into extreme high risk and urban environments. To insure it will survive it has a FLIR and a LASAR Device that is able to blind enemy Infrared systems and soldier’s night vision devises. Its armor is impervious to all small arms fire, .50 cal, 12.7mm, 14mm, and up to 25mm machineguns and cannons and can withstand prolonged attack from 40mm machinecannons. It can take a hit or two from a 105mm tank cannon, and can take a hit from most RPG and Anti-tank rockets. Its armor is an Honeycomped Ultra High ceramic (Sp?) incased in Titanium incased in Kevlar incased in Steel.

Its weapons include a 7.62mm AOWS or Armored Overhead Weapons System (that is basically a remotely controlled 7.62mm machinegun), one 7.62mm machinegun is near the commander’s hatch, and two 7.62mm machineguns are located near to top troop compartment hatches. The most unique thing about the bear is its clamshell hatch. Because the small engine is at the rear of the vehicle, the troop compartment in the middle and the crew’s compartment in the front, a normal door was not possible. So a clamshell door was made for it. To open the lower part folds down to form a ramp while the upper part opens upwards.

Bio:
The Hammer is our most advanced MBT. The improved 120mm smooth bore gun has been developed by Anatoray Enterprises. The new gun is an advanced generation of the gun developed for the SG-T5V4. A Vidco thermal shroud on the gun reduces bending of the barrel resulting from environmental and firing conditions. The gun can fire higher power munitions including new 120mm high penetration projectiles and guided shells. The loader can select semi-automatically the ammunition type. The tank carries 60 rounds of ammunition each stored in a protective container. An electrically operated revolving magazine contains 10 ready-to-fire rounds. It can fire HVAPFSDS rounds at a velocity of over 6,500ft/second (1969m/second) which can knock out all known unprotected MBTs. It can also fire the 9M134 Krokodil ATGM than can penetrate 1700mm of explosive reactive armor.



The fire control system includes very advanced features including the capability to acquire and lock onto moving targets, even airborne helicopters, while the tank itself is on the move. The computer controlled fire control system includes line of sight stabilization in two axes, a second-generation television sight and automatic thermal target tracker, a laser range finder, an improved thermal night vision system and a dynamic cant angle indicator. The commander's station is fitted with a stabilized panoramic day and night sight. The integrated operating system includes advanced data communications and battle management. A FLIR and a LASAR Device are also able to blind enemy Infrared systems and soldiers



A nice feature of the tank is that a fitted modular special armor covers the turret. These are easily replaced whenever better ballistic technology is introduced. The tank is also covered with the Kaktus Explosive Reactive Armor, capable of defeating both Triple-Warhead HEAT and Kinetic Energy Penetrators such as the one used in the M1A2. Tests made showed that it took 6 directs hit from the 120mm Rheinmetall Cannon used in the M1A2, Leopard II and Leclerc to damage the main Armor. The tank is protected against a range of threats, including air launched precision guided missiles and advanced top attack anti-tank weapons by means of the ARENA Active Protection System and the SHTORA Optronic Jamming device. The underside of the hull has been fitted with additional armour protection against mines. The driver and crew compartments are equipped with heating and cooling air conditioning and a Anatoray Enterprises combined individual and overpressure protection systems against contamination by NBC warfare. A skirt of chains with ball weights is installed on the lower half of the turret bustle. Incoming HEAT projectiles detonate on impact with the chains instead of penetrating the turret ring. Sprung armor side skirts protect the wheels and tracks. All this makes this tank one of the most protected in the world.
