Also, your S54 smg has some major errors.

Why is the folded stock longer than extended?

And why is there only 2cm difference?
For it's length, it appears to be more of a PDW.

Also, the Panther MS1 has an engine too small for it's supposed top speed. Around 45 tons? With an 860hp engine? 50mph? This would only be achieved by some really, really shitty gear ratios, which means poor performance of all kinds and it's not going to be liked at all.

The badger must have no armour at all and be wheeled for performance and weight like that. And 10 infantry? Bringing people inside to 13? You need to get your proportions right for a lot of things. These are way out.

Also, you should get pictures, perhaps some history, and individual pages for write-ups.

The K132 is light because it is used mainly for recon missions and its 105mm Cannon and its 7.62mm Machine Gun is mainly for defensive purposes. The new improved version K145 is coming soon with improved armour and heavier tonnage.
Antigr
21-11-2007, 19:57
So? The British Scorpion was used only for recon purposes. It had a tiny stub of a 76mm gun, almost no armour, a smaller thus lighter engine, a small fuel load, excessive compromises, and was 3 tons heavier. K132 article needs major modification.

This (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingray_Light_Tank) is a closer comparison. Not as well equipped as your tank, similar weaponry, and an engine weight increase of perhaps 50kg. It weighs 22 tons.

Just because the weapons are used defensively doesn't change their weight.

Never tested? Not even the prototypes when you were building them? I have never come across a tank that has never been tested. Almost all the time, at least the prototypes have been tested.

So the gun might fire backwards and the engine could turn into a pie, and you wouldn't know about that? Really, every single military product that has surpassed the mock-up stage has been tested in at least one shape or form.
