HVK Vanguard II H Main Battle Tank

Update 27.2.18: New Skid Steering Script! Link below.

Although the introduction of the Vanguard I hasn´t been long ago, here is it´s successor, the Vanguard II, this being the H (heavy) version.
Light version.

It is equipped with the so called Stage 2 armor upgrade including heavy side-plating and cage armor at he engine compartment, as well as a bulldozer shield in the front.

The Vanguard II was build with the intention to minimize the flaws of it´s predecessor, like a very vulnerabel turret ring, low ground clearence at the rear, unoptimized use of space on the interior and bad gun depression over the front hull. Also the decoy system and especially it´s placement have been overhauled.
The turret now sits lower on the hull while improving it´s behaviour and making turning it smoother.

Huge thanks to Whiplash and MMaster for their incredible scripts, which allow us to build cool stuff!
Also thanks to Inky for his Tracks!
