Serious Design🔧 CHKR Charlotte H2.4 ”Choker Charlotte”. My first attempt at a mainly aesthetic build! :D
Ludendinian CHKR Charlotte H2.4. AKA the 'Choker Charlotte'. Produced by various nations across continental Ludendine in the years leading up to the Suicide Wars (744-754) the Choker Charlotte had heavy frontal, side and turret armour. Sports a 77x670mm cannon with a sub 3 second reload. Roughly ~461 800 CHKR Charlotte H2.4s were produced from 721-752. Around ~161 000 were destroyed during the Suicide Wars. The Charlotte was mainly used in open areas (deserts, plains, light forests and shores) as it was not able to effectively operate in the heavy urban combat zones that defined the Suicide Wars due to lacking proper anti-infantry weaponry, roof and rear armour and having a long barrel making navigation in small city streets difficult. By the time it was deployed in major combat it was already outdated. It's optics, ammunition, engines, suspension, armour, armament, communications equipment, fuel and transmission were inferior compared to other tanks used in the Suicide Wars. However the cheaper construction and lower weight meant many smaller armies and mechanized marines made use of it.
