This is the <C7-K> Strv-103 for VICE. Now you too can own your very own cold war danger wedge!
A very interesting Swedish approach to the main battle tank (it is in fact not a tank destroyer) which featured an advanced suspension system for aiming as opposed to the traditional turret. Similar to its real life counterpart it aims the same way in SL with mouselook guiding the tank left, right, up, and down where you look. Primarily intended for defensive combat its armed with a powerful autoloading cannon and very strong frontal armor, but the lack of a turret limits its mobility in combat while its rear ammo stores make it extra vulnerable from behind.
The vehicle was made with the ability to use it almost anywhere in mind so its relatively low LI for what it is (under 50) and holds up pretty well doing grid drives, even having a cruise control mode for doing such.
You can get the item for slightly less by visiting one of the in-world <C7-K> store locations, I wanted to encourage folks to check out the neat sims people put a lot of effort into making.

A fun and rather unique tank to surprise your enemy.
The Stridsvagn 103, Sweden's unique and innovative main battle tank, stands out as a testament to the country's prowess in military engineering. An absolute blast to operate, this tank not only excels in performance with its smooth running and driving capabilities but also boasts an impressive cannon that fires with precision and has a commendable reload time.
Its 105 mm L7 gun, mounted on a fully traversable turret-less hull, is a formidable weapon that adds a thrilling dimension to the tank's operation. The cannon's striking resemblance to a real one adds an authentic touch to the experience, creating a sense of realism that enhances the overall immersion for operators.
Despite the fixed cannon design, aiming is surprisingly intuitive, thanks to its advanced hydraulic system and swivel capabilities. The Stridsvagn 103 promptly tracks where you look, making the aiming process seamless and enhancing the overall enjoyment of the experience. The innovative suspension system not only allows for rapid target acquisition but also contributes to the tank's overall agility, making it a joy to handle on the battlefield.
The tank's low-profile silhouette, combined with its impressive top speed, makes it a challenging target to spot and hit. This, coupled with the tank's excellent defensive capabilities, showcases the Stridsvagn 103's versatility on the battlefield. The armor, although not the thickest, is cleverly designed to provide effective protection, emphasizing Sweden's commitment to cutting-edge military technology.
