Modern Da Vinci Tank

The Da Vinci tank, or 'Leonardo's Fighting Vehicle' can be seen as the ancestor of modern tanks, even though it probably wouldn't have been very good in actual combat. To try and remedy this, I have tried to bring the tank into the modern age by applying some of our modern technology and techniques to the vehicle. To start, the armour is no longer made of wood, rather it's been upgraded with high density and strong steel to withstand modern armaments. The cannons have been stripped out and replaced with a central, roof mounted remote control turret. The turret packs a good punch with two MGs and a strong main gun. A small radar has been fitted as well, working in conjunction with the remote turret. The vehicle is no longer powered by hand, rather a powerful V12 is in the rear of the tank with two exhausts out the back. There's also a radio inside the tank opposite the gunner station.

Top speed: 22 MPH.

Crew: 3 - driver, gunner and radio operator.

Controls:
WSAD to drive.
ALT + view pitch/yaw to control turret.
Action 1 to shoot.

Enjoy this re-imagined look at the Da Vinci tank. It's still not the best in a one-on-one situation, as the design is showing its age, however it's still a force to be reckoned with as it does have very good gun depression, a good main gun and two MGs for tearing up infantry.
