sweet work.
may want to add more places for stuff to be tied on.
Like shovels and tarps and stuff like that

I agree with Raja, I would like to see some equipment like tow cables, shovels, extra reactive armor pieces, and some troop ruck sacks on the turret, that's were we stored all our gear during maneuvers. I would maybe have some tie down points on the top of the turret aft of the hatches for this kind of storage.

Also do you think that this tank could use some small arms support at the hatches for anti-infantry like most tanks have? Some U.S. crews in during the Vietnam conflict added weapons to there already in place complement.

Added some experiamental reactive armor in the center section, not sure if i'm keeping it or not. feels not really right look wise. Soem more details and "little" guns for the crew.
Oh and a size comparison as well

Dude those armor plates on the hull are awsome. I think your heading down a great path with that. The Crew serve weapons are a nice touch too.

I am looking forward to seeing the completion of this tank, and I am hoping to seeing more vehicles that you will be designing in the future.

Great work!

Dag but that is a really nice design, it seems a little big to me, but very cool just the same.

thanks guys,
As for the ERA, not sure, removed it again for now.
But started with the general armor detailing as replacement
It just doesn't feels right on a flying tank to slap large blocks of explosives onto it you know.
You also can catch the first glimps of the landing gear, well at least a tiny bit of the front section
