The Perfidious
Typ-26 'Maschith' MBT
What started off as a joint project with Transnistrian military firm SniB to produce a well-protected 3rd-Generation Main Battle Tank eventually split in two directions. The Chenchnan-made turret was too large for the Transnistrian chassis and accommodatory railroad transportation (particularly, many bridges and tunnels), and the Transnistrian project eventually became the SniB-90 series. The turret sat in a warehouse for nearly a year before a new military ordnance request dug it out. A new, domestic chassis was fitted with great assistance from the Sangheili officers and engineers from the crashed ship "Liturgy of the Sacrament". Whist an absolutely massive vehicle, the extremely durable polymer armor and incredible speeds from the repulsor-based propulsion system gave it an uncharacteristic speed and power. Floating a foot above ground, the Maschith can glide above rough terrain with ease. However, it is not without its issues. A plasma-based fuel system eats fuel for breakfast and is highly volatile, and an interior designed with primarily Sangeili in mind does not suit human ergonomics especially well. However, testing has concluded it is not only an effective warmaking vehicle, but one whose presence on the battlefield should not be taken lightly.
Based off of the Type-26 Wraith, from the Halo franchise. Turret was a Black Eagle/Obj. 640 project I had been making with Ian, but the turret turned out too large for a realistically-scaled chassis. So now there's this.
Also, can this count as Mechtober?
