Vehicle Description

The Gorilla shares its predecessors' defining feature: a rotating turret with decent armor thickness. This gives the tank destroyer a versatility that makes it effective from almost any position and engagement distance, while its cutting-edge partial loading mechanism ensures it's never caught off guard in combat.

Historical Reference

In the late 1960s, the U.S.A. was working to create a well-protected tank destroyer with high-powered weapons to fight prospective enemy tanks. A high-powered 155 mm or 165 mm gun was considered for the armament, while a radar rangefinder and a secondary optical rangefinder were planned for increased accuracy. The vehicle's hull and turret were supposed to have welded cage armor for better protection against HEAT shells. As a result, the prospective project turned out too complicated and expensive, and so it was abandoned.

Multi-Pack Charge System

This vehicle's gun can fire early: single-charge shots, fired during reload, have reduced effectiveness, while regular full-charge shots fired after reloading have optimal ballistic parameters.
