Meet the 🇨🇳BZ-176 on steroids. Now you can unleash HE shells with an autoreloader at Tier X. Development on this tank dates back to around 2022, when the 🇨🇳BZT-70 was initially planned to feature a multi-track mechanic. Over time, this idea was dropped. Years later, it has now reached full-scale testing.

Historical Reference:

The tank project was notable for its extreme armor and firepower values for the time. However, the outstanding technical characteristics meant the vehicle’s weight was huge. Chinese engineers got the idea for a caterpillar propulsion system composed of four tracks from the American 105 mm Gun Motor Carriage T95. Well-armored with a small frontal projection area, the tank surpassed most contemporary vehicles in terms of protection. Nevertheless, the project turned out very expensive and remained in blueprints.

  1. The fact that it doesn’t have multi-track mechanics is ridiculous. This reminds me a lot of when the BZ-176 entered its first super test, a derp cannon that evolved into a 3-shell cannon and finally into the cannon it was launched with at the end…
    Will this be in the Christmas matrushka boxes?

  2. This tank is useless af – slow, no accuracy, no dpm, no armor (its like type 5)
    I would say its a lootbox filler tank
