Very likely. Anything that'll twat the turret from a Royal Tiger is likely to make a mess of whoever is inside as well.

That doesn't look quite right though. I'm not an expert but it doesn't look real, like there's no fire damage, no impact holes, the turret shape looks off slightly.
I dunno.

I think you're on to something.
It's weird to say this, but the damage looks too clean. That turret looks like it just popped out and you could pop it back into its socket with a crane.

There's no equipment either. No turret basket for example.

I used to think the TIE Crawler was weird and impractical and was something they made to look cool cuz it has no turret and the side was unprotected

But then looking at the StuG and the Archer, I realized the real world has weird stuff too

I know basically nothing about tanks, but this cool video popped up in my subscription feed earlier today and I figured you guys would like it:

I'm bored so I think it would be cool if I make a modern version of an old tank (model, of course). Let's make the Crusader Mk IV, an IFV based on the WW2 era Crusader Mk III. It will have an auto cannon that will replace the 6-pounder, better armor, a more powerful and reliable engine so it won't breakdown as many time as the old tank,...
Any idea?

I think we should keep the 6-pounder and maybe add a flame thrower, cos why not?

Ah, I forgot about it. Very cool tank

Auto cannon shooting AP and HE would be ideal for fighting against infantry cus you have higher fire rate. I heard that the 6-pounder couldn't fight infantry effectively so it was used for fighting tanks

Maybe add an MG then. The MG and flamethrower would be for anti infantry and the 6-pounder for fighting against tanks. Oh, and maybe add a side skirt to protect the tracks too.

The old Crusader already had MG and skirts. Beside, the 6-pounder is an old gun, there're better guns with better penetration and performance.
I'm thinking of putting a commander's cupolar or something like that, ATGM, fancy radar, increasing the size of the turret and put spaced armour like the one on the Leopard 2A5, that fancy thing on the Abrams that shoot down incoming projectiles,...
This is gonna be the best (impractical) thing ever
