MAT 102A (Based off of the leopard 2A4 2A7 and Strv 122) TANK/MILITARY VEHICLE/WEAPON

Description
INFO
MAT Stands for MEDIUM ASSAULT TANK 102 Referring to the it being my 10th tank build of class 2 version series and the A referring to it being a second edition of this tank, i.e this is the second version

THE TANK
COMMANDER
The commander has access to 3 screens - The gun sight of which he has no control over
- The Binocular sight, on the left there are controls for this sight, it can be elevated using the BINOCULAR RISE lever, it can be rotated 90 degrees left and right, this sight also has NVD, this system is based off of the system used on the Strv122, there is also a zoom function that can go up to 100% increased zoom
- Commander Periscope, this is the central camera and there are no controls over it, it is shielded to try and prevent destruction and is a small basic camera for regular sight.
On the Right hand side of the commander are some Binoculars NVD and regular, as well as two primary warning systems, ICE WARNING and RADAR LOCK WARNING, as well as this he has access to an emergency distress beacon. The commander ha his own hatch which he can use for spotting and it can be opened on the move.

GUNNER
The gunner position is directly in front of the commander and has control over 1 screen, the gun controls are quite over complicated however can be easily understood after some experimentation, however 1 thing which I will explain is the button labelled TURRET ROTATION SPEED ABSOLUTE VALUE, this is here because if you only use a velocity pivot then quite often the turret will not stop rotating, to make it stop press the button and make sure that the keypad has a value of 0, this will make sure that the gun stops rotating
The gunner position also has access to NVD

DRIVER
The driver position does have access to its own hatch, however for it to be used properly the turret must be turned 90 degrees left or right for proper access like an ABRAMS tank, there is also a crawl hatch from the main turret basket through into the driver's position. The driver controls are fairly self explanatory, after a few minutes of exploration you should understand it. The only thing I will explain is the button labelled switch throttle control system, this will switch the throttle to the lever on your left. The driver also has access to NVD

DRIVE SYSTEM
This entire tank is electric and therefore eco-friendly your welcome trees
The steering system is an accelerator and you slow down the rotation of one of the tracks causing the tank to rotate, quite primitive but easy to understand and learn.
Unfortunatley this tank has no suspension however one with that system is in the works as well as a system with hydraulic suspension also

SUBMERGABILITY
This tank can ford water at any height as long as the following conditions are followed.
-Only the driver can be in the tank whilst it fords water above the turret height (if below turret height make sure that hull pumps are engaged)
-All of the driver's hatches must be sealed and locked from the inside until you are clear out of the water
-The other compartments of the tank are not water proof, only the driver's area is submersible
-Whilst underwater switch to the lever throttle system and raise monitor and engage NVD for further help, though not mandatory, for advice try and keep throttle below 50
-Once out of the water, re-engage the hull pumps and wait 10 seconds - do not engage hull pumps while tank is submerged, you can then exit and get the crew back.

Any questions just ask me :)
