Hey, have you considered making the engine out of the Jet turbine engine using that new power generation piece they added recently? If you did that it would literally work just like an M-1 Abrams. I suppose you could have maybe 8 batteries and 8 electric engines power the wheels.

Didn't know that
Thanks for enlightening me :D

Nah, already got a German friend, and the name comes from the fact that the irl austro-hungarian tank designed in 1911 was called the motorgeschutz. Hence, that became the general term of "tank" or medium tank, for the AH empire. And as the main battle tank concept was developed from the medium tank concept, they just stuck "Hauptkampf" on the front.

So, if I am to suggest a name, it might be something like
"Schwerer Kampfpanzer" (heavy battle tank),
"Panzerkampfwagen" (armored fighting vehicle/battle tank) or
"Panzerselbstfahrgeschütz" (armored selfpropelled gun), if you want to stay true to the "motorized gun" meaning of your original name, but the term "selbstfahr" is usually reserved for selfpropelled artillery pieces and selfpropelled guns, rather than for fully grown battle tanks.

Of course, I didn't mean to offend you.
If you want, I can help you with some translations of names or terms.

Pretty cool model, I love the details :cozybethesda:

May I recommend a slightly better name?
To german speaking people, "Hauptkampfmotorgeschütz" may sound a bit clunky.

I assume, you meant something like "main selfpropelled gun" or "main fighting vehicle", but in some cases meanings of words in english might differ from their german translation.
For example most german WW1 and WW2 tanks were officially named "Panzerkampfwagen" which roughly translates to "armored fighting vehicle".

Interestingly, the word "Panzer" ist also used, to reffer to many kinds of armor in a wide sense of the word. For example, a turtles shell is also called "Panzer".

In everyday use, armored vehicles are simply reffered to as "Panzer", with various additions like for example "Kampfpanzer" for MBTs, or "Schützenpanzer" for infantry fighting vehicles.

Wow, this thing is amazing. The detail you gave to the interior and even the sound effects and look of the engine is very impressive. Love builds that give a life-like operators experience. Thank you for making this.

You can't fool me that's a Challenger. Good tank though.
