[quote=@Foster] To be fair, franken-tanks [url=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/dd/Iranian_Army_Ground_Forces_New_Equipment_2019_%2806%29.jpg]is kinda Iran's thing[/url]. From left to right: Shahram (radiological-recon lab), Hiedar-5 (minelayer), Hiedar-6 (BMP-1 turret on BTR-60), Tiam (T-55 /w a 105mm gun grafted to an M47 Pershing hull) and a pair of Zulfiqars (M48/60 Patton series with a "new" turret featuring the T-72's 125mm gun and fire control system), and a Karrar (Zulfiqar's turret on a T-72 hull) [b]Anyways, I'm thinking about throwing an NPC'd APC to take the right flank, but debating whether it'll be a surplus M113 Zelda, or a rebashed Norkie tenk with some Serbian ATGMs. I did consider momentarily the LVTP-7, but I figure those are better used hauling freight (follow-on infantry).[/b] I was also been regretably informed that our M60 Patton does not have any WP smoke rounds. Gonna note Iran only received like 300 BTR-60s, so every variant kinda detracts from this number; which is why they've kitbashed BTR-50s back into the role of the BTR-60. Iran also has/had like one of the only production-plants for building/upgrading M47s overseas, meaning they can maintain M47s considerably easier than aging T-55 hulls (which'll likely end up being used as 170mm heavy-artillery [M-1978 Koksan]). /[url=https://tank-afv.com/coldwar/North_Korea/koksan.php]tangental info on the M-1978[/url] for [@PrinceAlexus] so they can get into an arty-duel: Due to center of balance issues, the gun needs to be shoved forwards to the middle of the hull for transit, but slid back to the rear of the hull to be in firing position [i]after[/i] the recoil-spades have been dug-in. [url=https://youtu.be/7o3FTgL2L0g?t=114]The amount of recoil they contend with is also hilarious[/url]. [/quote] Not a shoot and scoot platform then, more a long range seige partially/ heavy countrt battery gun. And they cannot just turn thr gun on a "turret" mount.
