Monitor AVP

"Who was the stupid Sierra Indigo Bravo who stuck a warship gun on a tank?!"

- Anonymous Marine

The M811A2 Monitor AVP was a major refit of the standard Scorpion chassis to feature a 120mm Anti Tank gun.

The vehicle its self has been lengthened, widened and heightened, with a meter added to the width and length and the vehicle is 50 centimeters higher. The main chassis has been formed into a boxy shape, with a driver/gunner on one side, a gunner on the other then a gunner where the turret formerly lay. In the centre the 120mm Gauss gun has been emplaced, inbetween the gunner and driver. The A2 features various additions to quieten the engine.

These combinations make a excellent tank hunting vehicle. Its low profile, Hydraulic suspension allowing it to raise the front or back boogies to change its elevation and limited gun mantle manouvrability make it perfect for ambush attacks or launching first strikes on tanks in dense enviroment.With the abilities to effective hide behind hills, in ditches, in forests and in towns, its adaptability is fathomless. Its only problem is, while facing targets on their flanks, faster vehicles can out run its turning time or the time it takes to move the gun.

UNSC remarks
"The A2 model is a ambusher'sbest friend. When the engine is on standby, its near silent, but then it can spring into action on a moments notice. Means they could pass three meters from you and not know your there."

"The frictionless materials coating the barrel interior are a god send but it still gets damn hot in the tank."

"The Gauss guns are deadly accurate over extreme distances. When you check out its stats on the net, there is no max distance, we haven't figured it out yet."
