P12A3 "Wolverine" Plighia Main Battle Tank

The P12A3 "Wolverine" is a latest generation Main Battle Tank, produced by Troula Manufactory, a company adhering to the APMIP of the Defense Department of Plighia. It was conceived as a future national MBT that will support and, over the years, supplant the old MBT dated to the Cold War. The P12A3 is equipped with the latest technological innovations: a new "York C233" 125 mm autoloader cannon, a 1500 HP diesel engine, a displacement of about 60 tons, Gunshot Detection System, Laser Warning System and various smoke dischargers. A CROWS station is positioned on the turret, and the two periscopes equipped with advanced optics and IR sensors can be identified. It also has an advanced APS (Active Protection System) system, codenamed "HOMELAND", capable of intercepting missiles, grenades and projectiles on the fly, like its rivals TROPHY and AFGHANIT. But the biggest novelty of all introduced on this MBT are the new ERA plates. These ERAs, called "ADAMANT", are much more advanced and functional than their predecessors, in fact they are capable of blocking not only normal projectiles and missiles, but also the new generations of "tandem" projectiles designed to penetrate normal ERAs. This greater protection, however, has the side effect of making the new MBT heavy by several tons and therefore making it less agile and faster than the factory features.
