Presenting The M99A5 Silhouette Superheavy Stealthed Danium Accelerator Tank for the gallery in my upcoming third book, which is a full length novel! I spent a total of 15 days making this.

Armaments:

Light Danium Accelerator Cannon with 3,360 mm danium block
8x 40 mm anti-air and infantry projectile autocannons

Other details:

Charging time: 1 minute
Recharge time: 10 minutes (reload time)

Initial velocity of main projectile: 30 km/s
Mass of main projectile: 400 tonnes

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2
Kinetic energy = 0.5 * 400,000 kg * (30,000 m/s)^2
Kinetic energy = 0.5 * 400,000 kg * 900,000,000
Kinetic energy = 180,000,000,000,000 J

1 Kiloton of TNT = 4,184,000,000,000 J of force

180,000,000,000,000 J / 4,184,000,000,000 J = 43.02 kilotons of TNT per shot

Programs used:

Sketchup Pro 2013
Indigo Renderer

One of the most unique types of tank concepts I have seen. It's almost like the futuristic version of a self-propelled artillery. You definitely took time to make a thorough renovation on this concept, as you decided to make it more realistic. Although I think that the tank is overpowered, it sure looks "over-cool."

In general, my best point about this tank is that it clearly is a unique tank; specifically, it is a war machine with a unique type of "cannon." I appreciate your originality, which is your number 1 thing about it. My biggest objection is that it's overpowered. When I mean that, it's not the Danium blast; it's that it has too many protection systems in place. The Danium blast more than makes up for the protection system.

However, at the end of the day, this tank rocks. I appreciate you putting much thought into it. Congratulations!
