T-34-3
The T-34-3 medium tank was to be a modification of the T-34-2.
Unlike the Type 59, the T-34-3 featured reduced armor. The
design was developed in 1957. However, mass production of the
Type 59 was started in 1958, and the T-34-3 project was
discontinued.
Loyd Gun Carriage
A proposal to mount a 76.2-mm gun on the chassis of the Loyd
Carrier artillery truck. Developed from 1940 through 1941. No
prototypes were manufactured.
Birch Gun
The first SPG originally designed in Great Britain. Development
started in 1923. The prototype was built on the basis of the
Vickers Medium Mark II in 1925. A few prototypes were
manufactured, and underwent trials starting in 1925. The project
was canceled in 1928 due to lack of interest by the British
government.
Bishop
Developed by Birmigham Carriage and Wagon in June 1941 on the
basis of the Valentine II infantry support vehicle. From 1942
through 1943, a total of 149 SPGs were produced. In general the
vehicle was unsuccessful. The vehicle was used for training
purposes since 1943.
Crusader 5.5-in. SP
A modification of the Crusader featuring a 140-mm howitzer. Soon
after WWII a prototype was completed. However, the vehicle never
entered mass production, nor saw service.
FV3805
A modification of the Centurion featuring a 140-mm howitzer. A
total of 2 prototypes were built in 1956. The development of the
FV3805 was discontinued in 1960. The vehicle never saw service.
Conqueror Gun Carriage
A proposal to mount a 234-mm howitzer on the chassis of the
Conqueror. Existed only in blue prints.
FV304
Prototype light SPG developed by Vickers. Development started in
1947. However, the prototype was not manufactured until 1953.
The design of the SPG was already obsolete by this time, and the
project was canceled.
FV207
An SPG variant on the basis of the А45 Conqueror. It was planned
to mount either a 105-mm, 140-mm, or 152-mm howitzer in a closed
armored cabin. The vehicle existed only in blueprints.
LTP
A proposed light vehicle developed by Lieutenant Provornov in
the summer of 1942. No prototypes were manufactured.
MT-25
A proposed project of a light wheeled caterpillar vehicle. The
draft was completed in February 1943. The most innovative
feature was the suspension design. The suspension wheels were
interleaved, and power was delivered to all wheels. No
prototypes were manufactured.
Maps:
Empire Border
Scout vehicles and SPGs are vital on this map. Other vehicles
have little choice but to stick to the conventional line of
attack: directly through the town.
Belogorsk-19
A town is the primary setting for combat actions. Mountain
trails can offer tactical advantages. High-speed vehicles should
provide cover for friendly SPGs that will probably linger near
their base.
