Description

This is a CE-Only Mod. Muzzle Flash compatible. Since I've only played in the CE (Combat Extended) environment starting from version 1.2, I don't know how to create weapons for the Vanilla environment.

Added Rh120-D Smoothbore Tankcannon(120mm, 120x570mmNATO), which was not selected by the colonial fleet for mass production as a standard weapon. The sound effect of this tank cannon is derived from the firing sound of the Rh120 in War Thunder.

The bodysize restriction for using this weapon is greater than or equal to 3.

The M829A4，M830 and M200E4 are from RimThunder - Desert Sabre:

The M200E4，LAHAT，KONUS，APAM120，DM73，DM63PELE，M830A1，M908，M1028，DM11 HE temp，M337，M357S are from my new ammunition pack:

To better market their tankcannon, the designers and manufacturers borrowed the name of the renowned Rh120 cannon from RheinMetal. In reality, the design of this cannon was more influenced by the CTG tank gun of the CV90120 light tank. Ultimately, this cannon was not selected by the colonial fleet for mass production as a standard weapon. Although it was lighter, offered better accuracy, and had a wider range of functional ammunition, its cost was significantly higher than that of the 125mm tank gun. The production of this cannon has long been discontinued, but the wealth of information left behind by the designers and manufacturers is sufficient for skilled craftsmen to recreate this artillery piece.

Below are some real-world demonstrations of the structure, operating principles, and damage effects of various ammunition types. Those interested may take a look to learn more.
