Unable to add amphibious capability for the time being, the turret being as big as it is renders that an impossibility for now, and the turret is the size it is due to the need to house 3 personnel inside it (Commander, Gunnder, Loader). It would be more feasible and practical to mount an unmanned turret, and that would also allow for more soldiers to be housed in the rear.
@MrOofington
Went looking through my unfinished builds, I have an 8x8 wheeled hull similar in shape to the Hrafn IFV, it's large enough to accept a turret that can mount a 120mm and is capable of accepting thicker armor.
@MrOofington
To provide sufficient protection against such rounds as 3UBR11, I'd have to almost triple the armor thickness or add some form of lightweight ERA, both of which would compromise the weight distrubution of the vehicle. That would disallow amphibious operations. Adding a 120mm manually loaded cannon would also necessitate a larger turret, of which this chassis will not be able to easily fit without altering or completely removing the crew cab in the rear, and not without severely compromising stability on both uneven terrain and in water, given the armor requirements laid down. Having capability to fire LAHATs wouldn't be an issue if the requirement wasn't for them to be gun-launched, either. Having them gun-launched would require a larger turret ring or bustle-stowed ammunition, both of which also lead to a larger overall turret size. The protection against chemical energy munitions such as RPGs and IEDs is already present, in terms of both armor and active protection systems. Mounting even a remote control .50cal would also prove a challenge without enlarging the turret, of which the detriments and disadvantages have been mentioned. Given your requirements, you might be better off using a modified M51A1 Hauld. It may not have the capability to carry troops like the Hrafn, but it has the capability to meet most of, if not all the requirements laid down by the WRMC and WRLF. The Hrafn, unfortunately, is not a suitable platform to meet such requirements. If you wish to wait for a more advanced option, I will soon be releasing my M78 Skofnung Advanced MBT, which will also be able to meet most of your requirements in a better fashion than that of the Hauld LMBT or even the Mjolnir MBT
@ShinyGemsBro
Any of my.vehicles you can use, my only request is that you share feedback about its receiving amongst TFM SF units and general vehicle feedback on how you feel it performs and functions. I will say though, I wish I had mitigated the barrel collision issue, and made a slightly wider wheel base.
@ShinyGemsBro
By all means, you can use it however you'd like lol
Although, to justify the stupidly heavy weight for what SPHs typically have (35 tons), I kinda had to give it armor kinda like a modern light tank. Means now it can be used closer to the front lines and can take far more than just shrapnel and small arms fire like most SPHs

@Yourlocalhuman
I'm out in the field right now, but I'm going to start working on designs on paper to make an SPH version. Not yet certain how I'll pull off IDF capability, but I'll start something and see how it develops. I've been stagnating on this for too long and have had several builds planned out but never uploaded, and I need to get off my fat butt lol
@MAHADI
In my defense, I did take this screenshot for the thumbnail about 9 months ago, this build has been in WIP status for that long. Will do, though.
@Ocllhn I can't build an island. Staging bots only works so well because I have to manually measure out how far away I am from the firing line, save that location, and repeat for farther distances.
If the CoM (red) isn't in front of and slight below the CoL (blue) then it won't fly. It also needs to have big enough wing surface area (which it looks like it does)
@Pigeony Smth must've gone wrong, I downloaded the post and added my gun, then uploaded it, found out I forgot a rule, removed it, and reuploaded it as the same thing but mkodified to fit within the rules.
@BaconAircraft Can u make this a successor to This post?
@Yourlocalhuman
Just a touch, mate. Got caught up with me mates inna pub near London, you know?
@Yourlocalhuman
After two years of no answer...

Spotlights? Like, modded or no? If it's modded, I already have tracks mod on my stuff which leads to fewer downloads, unfortunately

I just need someone to tell me what they find that's working funky or doesn't seem to be working correctly xD

Can someone verify if this works with Opera GX browser?

In hindsight, probably could've done better lighting or positioning on the thumbnail.

I'll admit I thought the ALTV would be more successful.
@Nerfaddict
Indeed it has
@TTL
Yes. That was a LONG time ago though.
Nice touch
Did u delete the gunsight too? That was a label
@That1Furry
Yesh
Am rare protogen :3
Do u habs discord?

The gunsight was a pain in the rear to make.

@BaconAircraft Can u make this a successor to This post?
@GuardianVN Ohh I forgot!! Can I remove this post and re-try?
@G2 Sure
@G2 I used to spam the forums a lot and pirated the game, and other stuff. Not proud of myself.
This is surprisingly unpopular
@jvvSihb What do you mean?
@MrOofington I mean, in a sense, this is like a pseudo-replica version of it, it seems.
