Realistic ALA

Aside from the level 3 radio, this is the ALA that appears in a lot of my builds, a moderately armored infantry tank with a advanced autocannon.

M3 lee early production

I'm back to present a historical reconstruction of the M3 Lee. At the beginning of production, its armor was riveted, but in later production it became cast. Historically, it was only a transitional tank for the USA. Indeed, at the start of the war, the only tanks available in significant numbers were the outdated Stuarts, and the Sherman wouldn't appear until 1942. In short, it was primarily the result of improvisation. It made a good impression during its first appearance in North Africa, where its 75mm gun riddled the German Panzer IIIs with holes, as they struggled to penetrate it head-on, forcing them to regularly rely on the 88mm anti-aircraft gun, artillery, and aircraft. But it was against the Panzer IVs and other heavier German tanks that it showed its limitations and was replaced by the famous Sherman.

HO-RI production

Here's a reconstruction of the famous Japanese HO-RI heavy tank destroyer. Let me know what you think. I enjoy posting rough reconstructions of real tanks. I should also point out that the autoloader you see is just a representation of the mechanical system designed to speed up the processing of heavy shells from its 105mm gun. Indeed, a Japanese soldier of that era was rather short and stocky, and handling such shells was no easy feat. This resulted in an incredible gun, capable of a rate of fire of 4 seconds with its 2-round priority ammunition rack. Fortunately for the Americans, it was never mass-produced and, in any case, would never have reached the front lines at that time.

Germanowerfer

This is the germanowerver, it werfs germans. Inspired by the summer beta changes, where rocket artillery finally has a purpose, stabilizers and autoloaders are buffed, and I'm trying to tempt paradox to make the squeeze bore adaptor good sometimes. Intended doctrines+spirits: Self propelled support, Tank Destroyer force, direct fire support. You will be able to push this rocket platforms hard attack as self-propelled artillery to the moon, all the way to ~15 even (Maybe even 20... Its really hard to tell what it will look like post MIO.) While it pierces nothing, pair it with some tank destroyers, the enemies will be a fine paste left in your path. GO OUT THERE AND WERF GERMANS. But do not werf the germans, they want to get werfed, its their favorite summer time activity. Its why they storm our borders in mass migrations roughly every 20-40 years. The doich-want-to get weerrffd~ The jdoich just wanna get werfffed. (For the love of god what am I writing.)

Super Heavy Spank (High mobility armor meme.)

It spanks and its as fast as mechanized, its reliability isn't the highest but the point is to have the most armor that can fit in a support company that matches early mechanized in speed. The enemy will be penetrated by this gun, and its fast so it spanks. What more could you ask for a tank (Don't look at the fuel economy don't look at the range.) ITS FOR PAPAL BATHTUB WARFARE OK. HE GETS THE FIST OF GOD AND WE WILL EVOLVE THIS INTO GODS KNUCKLES TO SEND THE MESSAGE.
