Taran-3B HIFV

Heavy infantry fighting vehicle derived from the Taran-3 chassis. It is equipped with a large multirole turret armed with a 35mm autocannon, 38 70mm rockets, and 2 top-attack missiles. The Taran-3B can carry 6 passengers. However, due to the vehicle's weight (roughly 40-50 tons), it is not amphibious.
The 3B is most obviously inspired by the BTR-T and BMO-T. I originally wanted to go for more distinct tank-to-APC/IFV conversions like the BMPT-64, VN11, and VN20, but because I will not have as much time in the coming weeks and months, I settled for the more simple design so I can finish other stuff.
For the armaments, I wanted something crazier than just a simple regular IFV autocannon, so I went for something like the QN-506 and BMPT Terminator. I also wanted to try something new: fire-and-forget weapons. The 3B has a launcher for top-attack attack missiles. Aim to activate them. A circle will appear to inform you of where the missile can lock-on. However, I have to admit, it is a bit janky at times. If anyone knows how to properly configure them, please inform me in the comments!
Like the Taran-3A, the 3B features ERA blocks on the upper glacis, upper hull, and sides of the hull. They cannot be damaged by small arms, but heavy arms can slowly chip away at the ERAs’ health and anti-tank weaponry detonates them on impact.
The Taran-3B also has strong and weak points. The fenders only take 0.75X damage from anti-tank weapons while the engine block is susceptible to 0.2X damage from heavy arms and 1.5X damage from AT weapons.
