		<description><![CDATA[Now, IF they would actually add this vehicle; the worst thing they could ever do is to label it as an TD. It would be a huge insult to the entire concept, It was an MBT during it&#039;s entire service of 30 years or so.

Ammo/gun info: 105 mm, 50 rounds of ammo and a fire rate of 1 round every 3 seconds.

Today it&#039;s clearly considered a TD, but the technological shift didn&#039;t occur until mid/late 80&#039;s. After which it was doomed to a corner in the museum...

So, do you really want a 50&#039;s/60&#039;s tank in the game that didn&#039;t became outdated until the 80&#039;s? 
And how would the game handle the fact that one single crewman could operate the tank (in worst case) by himself? And addition to that; the crew were all placed centered with maximum protection...
And furthermore; with it&#039;s &quot;HEAT fence&quot; it was immune to all known (tank) ammunition until about the same time. 

I hope they never add it, because it would be one of the most unfair battles ever towards anything produced/updated until the mid/late 80&#039;s. Sadly though, even for a Swede :(

[Bonus info: the &quot;strv 103&quot; was suggested for duty in Kosovo 1999, but due to it&#039;s retirement this was canceled. Too bad, it would have been our first MBT abroad until this day.
But the designated ARV did two tours there before it&#039;s final days, bastards...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sweet article!

I have always loved the S-tank and would love to see it ingame.
Intressting thing I found while watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjdLJbJBgUM (Swedish) is that apperantly it got a Automatic 3 geared transmission system which gives it 3 gears in both directions. Meaning it can reverse at the same top speed (50 kph) as it can drive forward.]]></description>

I somehow don&#039;t see it possible within the game. Even if they lower the damage to 320, that&#039;s still 4800 DPM]]></description>
