M4 Harris



The GT1A1 Harris is the first battle tank developed by the Union of Everett. It is an entirely new generation of tank, bringing in new technologies such as the fusion engine and railguns.

Armor
The tank is armored with armor based on the British-designed Chobham armor, a further development of the British 'Burlington' armor. Chobham is a composite armor formed by spacing multiple layers of various alloys of steel, ceramics, plastic composites, and kevlar as well as Depleted Uranium mesh surrounding the entire turret (top section) of the tank.

Armament
The tank is armed with a 120mm smoothbore main tank railgun that automatically loads ammunition. The railgun is a gunpowderless weapon that uses electro-magnetic energy to fire tank shells. There are three machine guns. A .50 caliber (12.7 mm) M2HB machine gun in front of the commander's hatch. This gun is on a powered mount and can be fired using a 3× magnification sight, known as the Commander's Weapon Station. There are also two M240 machine guns. The turret is also fitted with grenade launcher platforms that can deploy smoke grenades, flares or chaff. Finally, the GT1 features an anti aircraft surface-to-air missile in a launcher on the left side of the tank. This can be targeted and fired at aircraft.

Mobility
The GT1 has a powerful fusion cell engine which powers the four separate electric motors in each of the treads. The tanks features four separate threads. Should one fail, three continue to function. The tank may lose up to two treads before becoming immobile. The GT1 has a top speed of 80 miles per hour on road and 67 miles per hour off road. For ease of use, the driver's seat features a power steering wheel and automatic shifter, much like a car to allow for simpler training and use.
