Sheridan II Tank by Gnaeus
The Sheridan II Tank has an unconventional design. It now sports a gas turbine engine, a 145mm main gun, and increased protection. This design is a concept which seperates the crew from the automated mechinisms held further to the front of the tank.

I can say for a fact that Tanks in combat mostly engage in combat from the front. -

Some tanks like Panzer 3 J-N, late T-34, KV, IS 1,2 and Tiger I actually had rear armor almost as thick as frontal so they could do reverse peek-a-boo to avoid being 1-shot by enemy tanks. Modern tanks have weak side and rear armor in favor of frontal armor but someday, the concept of strong rear armor can possibly return. -
Gnaeus 10th Jul 2020@Wasteland A tank engages combat from the front, if a tank fights backwards it is doing something wrong. Tanks are not bunkers.

Gnaeus 10th Jul 2020I cannot add a blowout panel because it is autoloading and there is no space behind the turret. I also want to show its functionality.

you should add a blowout panel instead of a generic ammo storage -
Beatless123 10th Jul 2020Every tank can be easily destroyed from side, even modern tanks have only about 30-100 mm side armor. Maus had 180 mm side armor. Not enough to withstand a basic APCBC shell. Armata has probably more armor in side and rear parts of crew capsule but it has paper turret. This Sheridan II seems to be too heavy.

this would be so easily killed from the side and back, still +1 for the effort you put into it -
Gnaeus 10th Jul 2020The turret, detached from the crew and brought forward, is to help lower the profile of the tank and take advantage of armor geometry.
