Thanks for the comments guys. I will look into it. The cannon is 80mm btw.

80mm wowzors, I would defently look into some sort of Recoil buffer or your joint life is going to crap.

M1A1 Abrams is 120mm smooth bore and yours is 80mm, thats gonna put some hurt on something. that round will evaporate a human.

okay, it looks smaller than that!

You could keep the ammo the same size but make the barrel look beefer?

Oh no, it is 80mm, I measured it in comparison to the size of the mech. I don't think most people realise how enormously oversized most sci-fi weapons are. The barrel will stay the same size, this is supposed to be a "light" weapon, but I will be beefing up the rest of it I guess. Also you gotta take into account that weapons have been getting bigger and bigger as technology progressed, for example tank guns, and this is about 30 years from now. Also the ammo is proper size in regards to the barrel.

I can't believe its been a month since I've done any updates. Life sure has been hectic. Anyways I finally did some work on it today:

That has PWN your Infantry written all over it.

Yeah, that thing'll rip right through an infantry batallion front-to-back. It'd be fun to see that thing pop Humvees like wrapping plastic too... *pop* *pop* *pop*

Your attention to detail is astounding. I am enjoying this project, keep it coming!!!

Berkut · 08-18-2008, 07:16 PM

heh, thanks guys. This can rip apart heavy tanks with ease and can even attack other mechs to some degree of effectiveness(prolly wouldn't punch through front armour but can take out guns, damage joints, etc). It uses high velocity penetrator ammunition that can defeat most ERA. The small missile launcher has HE warheads for anti building/personnel role.

/OMG

so It Vapes infantry in to pink mist, Shreds Humvees like plastic wrap, punches M1A1 and A2 like a .50cal to beer can all while looking cool. Also it can effectly engage another Mech.

Next up, 80mm Shotgun..... you want over kill you got it. Talk about a street sweeper.
