Study: Unofficial Main Ground Combat System (December Update)

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- The German and French Army started a joint venture in building a new main battle tank, the "Main Ground Combat System" (MGCS).
Since there is almost nothing known about the project yet, nobody can tell how the final MGCS will look like in 2030/35. So i came up with my own, fictional design of that Tank.
As part of that i did a major research about today's and near future's available technology and tried to create my own tank.
Of course its way beyond my ability to design an even nearly working tank. But one rule of the project is, that every part of the tank has to be based on real world technology and nothing can be pure fiction.
It's still work in progress but modelling should be done by now.
Next in line:
-Unwrapping
-Texturing
-Shading
Hope you like it
SUPERB!!!!!! I WANT TO PRINT THIS TANK
Glad you like it! You can download the 3D file here: skfb.ly/6XZvY
I highly appreciate the effort you put in this. But why would you separate parts of the engine? I think the concept of one easy accessable engine block in the Leopard-Series proofed well and is superior for maintenance.
Thanks for your comment! My initial concepts had a single engine block in mind. However i later decided to change that. Because a conventional transmission is highly interconnected with the engine. For my understanding, this is no longer the case when using an electric transmission, which is why i decided to move the engine to the front. This has the following advantages: additional frontal defense for the crew (engine works as armor). It also allows for a rear entrance to the vehicle, which can give the crew a much saver exit in case of an emergency evacuation.
