The Strv M/51-90 (SA) The Desert Beast

"Combat photos" of the M51-90 taking several low caliber anti-tank hits whilst fighting insurgent forces.

Lore:

The M/51-90 was a replacement for the AML-90 and Ratel 90-20. Being an export of the M/51-105 using the already existing 90mm cannon was a cheaper option to the Swedish 105mm Anti-tank cannon. The M/51-105 was equipped with a 1.2 second autoloader that was swapped for a 2.3 second autoloader to accommodate the 90mm cannon. The barrel was extended to increase the effectiveness at longer ranges. After the first encounter with insurgent forces the M/51-90 was given the nickname "Dessert Beast" due to the 9-1 K/D ratio achieved during combat.

T-73-UK The next generation of cold war era Soviet MBTs

This tank took about 10 days to build and modify. The armor is 100-900mm on the hull front, 1000-250mm on the turret and 200-300mm on the hull sides. I really appreciate all of the feedback that I got whilst building this tank. It weighs 73.37 Tons and has a max forward speed on 57Mph and a reverse gear of 7.21Mph. It is armed with a 130mm autoloaded cannon (7 second reload) with 337mm of penetration. The add-on armor weighs 6 tons altogether.
