Yes, as said in the suggestion, it’s the LV-157, a T-34 carrying the Vz.53 quad DShK mount in order to rangefind for the 57mm LP-157 version. Even though it only reached a full scale mockup, it’s something I’ve wanted for a while now.

Btw i found a viable chinese heavy cruiser (not armored cruiser but ww1 style heavy cruiser).
The Montfalcone Yard 4900 Ton Class “Number 68”, left half complete in 1915 as a result of the battles of isonzo.
Main battery of 2x2 8 inch (203mm) L/50 cannons.
Secondary of 12 5 inch (120mm) cannons, various smaller guns, and 8 Schwarzlose AA mgs.
Speed of 28 knots.
Citadel armor of 4 inches (100mm).

There were a lot of ships that china planned to build, sadly, literally almost every single one got abandoned
Well if the russians can get incompleted ships, so can everyone else.

Exactly. Incomplete ships are just fine. The 4 montfalcone cruisers were all about 1/6 done, so theyre perfectly viable.

The Number 68 is the most promising one i know of, but i cant read chinese, so there are probably others.
Its basically a heavy cruiser version of the Omahas.
I will say that 28 knots for a 1915 design of 4900 tons seems rather optimistic, but the old fashioned armored-cruiser style gun layout probably gives a lot of extra weight for machinery.

If laid down, this can be suggested. Would be a unique suggestion and if half complete must have been laid down.

Yes.
I dont know how far work progressed on her in particular, but i do know her 3 scout cruiser half-sisters (64, 65, and 67(?)) were each about 18% complete when the Italians overran the Austrian yard in 1915. They wrecked the place, but apparently left the Chinese ships intact, as the Austrians restarted work on Number 68 in 1917 after Capporetto, planning to complete her to a simpler design for their own use.
Point is, yes, she was laid down.

if with detailed design paper
No.It’s in Moravia or Austria…
How much armor can its best round penetrate?
same round as D-44, but longer barrel, little faster.

Maybe some useful helicopter mode other than a PvE.
Good question. Would need some time to even look at it.
Edit: Okay- so sub-caliber AP shell 85-JPpSv-TK we also used in T-34/85s. But for the vz.52 AT gun it self there is one more AP round named 85-JPSv-K52 but i cant find much but drawings of it describing the parts of the shell itself. Maybe if someone else is better at seeking information about shell types
