'Atgeir' Main Battle Tank

Description
After playing around with some ideas in my head and coming out with a few prototypes, I'm finally ready to release my first public tank design, the MBT-02 Atgeir! Please note that this is by no means a 'meta' design, it was made to be an artistic build with a high degree of functionality for role-play or tank battles. Enjoy!!

Description:
In their efforts to bolster their catalogue to compete with their competitors, Hixson Defense began work on a new experimental tank in order to expand into the infantry sector. Designed for export to both private and government armies, the MBT-02 Atgeir is a versatile tank sporting a high-velocity cannon with an experimental cooling jacket and an array of systems intended to increase survivability on the battlefield, including an air and ground radar to increase visibility and provide useful information to friendly units. The linkage of the fire control system and drive train allows the tank to be piloted by a single operator, reducing resources and providing additional redundancy.

Specs:
-Blocks: 779
-PCU: 5,582
-Combat weight: 74,700 Kg
-Twin assault cannon
-Autocannon auxiliary turret
-Thruster assisted mobility

It's powered by the labour of the exploited working class

Is it serious or am I too stupid or is there no way to make curves with this vehicle? can you help me?

Thank you! I'm happy to hear you liked it. The idea was to have a super functional design packed with features while still being more or less just a fancy art build, but I will agree that comes with many drawbacks especially in regards to the compactness of the design. My solution was to reduce the friction significantly in tight turns in order to prevent flipping.

Comes standard with MART for turret control via mouse and Skid Steering cause.... tank.... with the added bonus of the Salvo script so your twin-linked Assault cannons have a double tap feature instead of one blast from the two main cannons. Hydro assisted boost in case you need to bug out fast... all in all a very solid, out of the box ready tank. The compact design is just the space saver I was looking for in my rover bays. I would like to point out that the narrow wheel base does pose some stability issues with difficult terrain and high speed maneuvers and the small connector being somewhat inset from the body can pose issues for rearm / refuel ops. Still a very solid compact build with a great aesthetic. Subbed, Upped, Favorited, and Followed!

ok soo how does someone use it in survival? I assume there is a printable version on the way where we can grind down red blocks and reassembly this awesome tank in survival?
