M7 Priest 1.7 by Uncle T

1,015 bricks.

My version of the 105 mm Howitzer Motor Carriage M7 American self-propelled gun.

It's an approximation, not a 1:1 replica.

The 105 mm HMC M7 was produced during World War II, and was given the official service name 105 mm Self Propelled Gun, Priest by the British Army, due to the pulpit-like machine gun ring, and following on from the Bishop and the contemporary Deacon self-propelled guns.

A total of 3,489 M7s and 826 M7B1s were built. They proved to be reliable weapons, continuing to see front-line service in the US and other armies well past the end of World War II.

The M7 Priest served in North Africa, Western Europe and in the Pacific Theatre, and also in the Korean War.

It is armed with a 105 mm M1/M2 Howitzer and a 0.5 in (12.7 mm) M2 Browning machine gun for self defense.

The vehicla had a crew of 4 - driver, commander, gunner and loader.

The 105 mm Howitzer had a reload time of 8 seconds, which I set the timer to, but in game it's more like 4 seconds.

NOTE!
The real thing had up to 7 crew, but since Bob is a thicc boi and the three extra crew were basically extra loaders/gunners I kept the crew to the minimum.
Also since the guns in the game are so huge I had to freestyle the whole gun carriage and some minor clipping may occur with the gun at its most extreme angles.
