AY2-1E "Panthera Tigris" Main Battle Tank.

Hi! This is Your Local Asian speaking!

Overall this product page is very nicely done and is descriptive. However, I must note that reading all the information was daunting and that most people wouldn't bother reading the specs because of it. Um....I suggest condensing some of the information into several bullet points that would keep each section clear and concise.

For example in the "electronics" section, I would get a chart or list of all the electronic equiptment and then type what each device does and what is it for.

This is only a suggestion, so feel free to ignore this. ( I felt sad when I wrote that. )

Ooc: Thanks for the criticism and input!

I was writing all of it to closely give the impression of Yohannes' in-context connection with the design as much as possible, hence why there are quite a lot of NS background and history being put into the design's writing. Regarding the bullet points... i have tried doing it, in the form of paragraph-wise description and explanation of each features utilised by the AY2-1E. I guess i just got taken up by the fact that i enjoyed writing it for the sake of my enjoyment... rather than for its readability purpose.. which i will then have to admit to be 100% my fault in entirety

Regarding the chart idea.. thank you for giving me that suggestion..! I will get into that, in fact, as i think that that is a really good idea.

Cheers for the input Symphonia.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E (English: Rapid Bridge Tank 2E) is the primary rapid launched, tactical assault bridge tank of the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces). The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E was envisioned with the primary task to establish multiple crucial tactical bridgeheads which will influence the much larger, strategic initiative of its corresponding attached formation(s). In some cases, unfavourable tactical situation on the immediate field of operation will find one’s formation lacking upon the availability of a sizeable or qualitatively secured bridge. It is in such a situation that the Panzerschnellbrücke 2E will be most useful within. Its other usefulness is the fact that the bridge can rapidly be assembled and launched, at no more than five minutes, and can rapidly disengage at no more than nine minutes.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E utilises a modified chassis and is based of the state-of-the-art Pz.Kpf.W AY2-1E Panthera Tigris. The turret of the vehicle has been removed to accommodate for the attachment of the automatic special bridging carrier system in place of the turret. The arrangement of powerplant and transmission systems has been kept from that of the AY2-1E, alongside the arrangement of the Panthera Tigris armour.

The Panzerschnellbrücke 2E has a total crew number of two, which consists of that of the vehicle’s commander and associated gunner. The length of the folded carried bridge is approximately 17 metres, whilst fully expanded will be that of 26 metres. The carried bridge can accommodate one of any AY2 variants at any given time, whilst it can accommodate up to two AY1 variants simultaneously at any given time. The innovative, state-of-the-art Panthera Tigris bridging layer of the Panzerschnellbrücke 2E will fill its role as the primary tank-launched, rapid launched tactical assault bridge, of the Wehrmacht well into the future.

Is tank-bridge, we buy! How much for one of thses?

Panzerhaubitze 2E

The Panzerhaubitze 2E (English: Armoured Howitzer 2E) is a self propelled gun artillery system developed by VMK, and was designated as the new replacement of the Panzerhaubitze 1H (PzH 1H) series of mobile artillery within the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces). The Panzerhaubitze 2E utilises a modified chassis and is based of the state-of-the-art Pz.Kpf.W AY2-1E Panthera Tigris.

The Panzerhaubitze 2E incorporate an enlarged autofrettaged and fully-automatic ammunition handling and firing Halstenmetall AY3H 170/L50 cannon, modified from that of the AY-1E Panthera Tigris' AY7M 140/L50 gun to resemble its indirect power projectile role. It is also equipped with an extra ammunition information management sub-system alongside its modified AYTRACK fire control system, borrowed heavily from that of the Panthera Tigris. Simultaneously pre-programed together is the PzH 2E modified AY3H 170 mmm compatible XA1Y-E2 automatic loading system of the original Panthera Tigris, with the ability to initiate MRSI (multiple round simultaneus impact) firing capability, which enable the PzH 2E to fire up to six rounds simultaneously within one targetted spot.

The AY3H is capable of throttling and exerting its rounds to over 40 km, with an extended projectile reach of over 50 km, a burst fire rate of thirteen rounds per minute and a sustained accurate firing rate of five rounds per minute. Developed with an indirect assault support role in mind, the AY3H is capable of handling multiple range of rounds essential in the ever growing scope of modern technological advancement, high explosive shells, infrared illumination rounds, multispectral smoke projectiles, being some example of rounds it utilised, and its thirty 170 x 1,000 mm rounds are stored within the modified XA1Y-E2 series of autoloading system, with its previous ability to fire its rounds if need be on the move terminated.

The PzH 2E's ammuntion resupply vehicle is based on the AY2 B variant chassis, with a thin 75 mm aluminium layered armour to provide protection against enemy infantry and light armoured vehicle small power projectile capability. Dubbed the AY2-T1, it is capable of delivering twenty rounds in five minutes' time, and is capable of delivering extra fuel to the PzH 2E mobile artillery system. It consists of three crews and is capable of holding up to 85 AY3H rounds.

The co-axial Halstenmetall 20mm AY1A TCR automatic cannon was removed, and replaced with a 12.7mm AY14-HMG which holds one thousand and two hundred rounds divided by two equal stock accomodation. The twelve laser detection countermeasure aerosol and smoke discharging-capabled grenades were also reduced to six, and the eight LA-420A1 Havik II BLATGM two-box launcher was removed.

The PzH 2E maintained the E variant's Adversus and Hauberk armour layout, thus maintaining the excellent all-around protection trait and well-armoured characteristic of the Panthera Tigris, consequently enabling the PzH 2E to become a mobile ground infantry assault support unit if need be. The E variant's integrated AYHK10 ADS was kept, although electronics and sensory unrelated to that of the PzH 2E's intended role was removed. The Forza FB-12TSD propulsion and 8GDCT automated double clutch transmission systems of the Panthera Tigris was also kept, alongside its VLT HPVS-MBT hydropneumatic active suspension system, which was moved to the front section of the mobile howitzer to accomodate for the change in its role, thus allowing the PzH 2E to maintain the excellent mobility of the Panthera Tigris.

All in all, the PzH 2E is seen as a step up over that of its predecessor Panzerhaubitze 1H (PzH 1H) series of mobile artillery system within the Yohannesian Wehrmacht (Defence Forces), and it was conceptualised and developed to fill a flexible role as the Wehrmacht's mean of a domestically manufactured Yohannesian primary assault gun if need be depending on the circumstance involved, ground formation offensive support unit, and an operational indirect mobile artillery system as its primary functional role.

The innovative, state-of-the-art Panthera Tigris self-propelled artillery and mobile gun howitzer variant of the Panzerhaubitze 2E will fill its role as the primary mobile artillery and gun system of the Wehrmacht well into the future.
