Please read the warning below.

The AML.3 was a light tank in service primarily by the Royal Army during the FCW. Designed as the successor to the AML.1, the Cavalier was larger, had better armor, faster, had more crew, and a better gun. It served as the main light tank of the Royal Army until the introduction of the AML.7.

The Cavalier was produced in great numbers and was used by several nations during and after the FCW. The main feature of the Cavalier was its main gun, a modified AG32 37mm auto cannon, which can fire off 60 rounds a minute. The gun was loaded via clips, with the commander loading it, though the gunner can reload the gun with slight difficulty due to the location of the loading port. Though the gun was capable of sustained rapid fire, crews were trained to fire off the rounds slowly, and to use its rapid-fire capability only when needed to maintain barrel life and to keep less fumes inside the turret. It has a driver and assistant driver, the latter of which has access to a 7.62mm machine gun. The turret itself doesn’t have a co-axial machine gun to give space for the main gun’s breech. On the roof is a 12.7mm anti-air machine gun which are used by infantry and rarely by the crew, some would just remove it.

Warning
It is my second time using this sort of track system, first time uploading with it. On my first model which this track technique was used, I didn’t have too much issues, but now its apparent that I’m not good with it. The tracks, or shocks, probably, causes the tank to vibrate, something breaks at the beginning, when going down or up a curb(runways) its ideal to do so while moving fast as moving slowly will break the tracks. With more research and development I could fix this issue, but I have other projects to do(next one hopefully will be spicy) and I just got pissed after several days of failing. I apologize for not fixing this issue, please forgive me.
Enjoy

    @Blue0Bull Thank you! I did disable, well I think I did, the collisions of the tracks. When I nudged them to snug up against the suspension(which also has disabled collisions) then they started to glitch, from what I saw its more of the shocks and fuselage parts connecting the wheels that are the problem although there could be some other parts that are causing the problem, but then again it is a learning experience for me and I hope I can do better in the future.
