But to start with this complicated mess of an AU nation:


In the mid 1990's, the M113 was starting to show its age and Canadian defence firms began to develop a modern APC. Due to the fall of the Berlin wall, the project was cancelled. Following the fall of Canada, and the eventual rise of the Empire, the project was brought out of the dustbin to be the face of the new legions armoured and mechanized forces. Here it can be seen in its initial, factory form.

Crew:
3 (Commander, driver, gunner/radio operator), with 8 passengers
or,
1 (driver), with 10 passengers, and the sergeant commanding the APC
Depending on doctrine and the legion it is in

Armament:
As factory model, 1x2 0.30 GPMG

The Rhinoceros looks a little dated compared to its real life contemporaries and could benefit from additional detail, but its great to see a diagram of the seating arrangement and I hope to see this thread grow over time.

And the Rhinoceros with its armour added on for combat use, still in its factory green.



The Mk. 1 light tank- as part of a modularity program for the new Rhinoceros program, a version was converted into a light tank to help support mechanized units. These had a crew of three- gunner, commander, and driver. The commander sat in the modified troop transport slot, and controlled the RWS.

armed with:
1x Bushmaster 40 mm cannon
1x 0.50 cal HMG RWS
1x 0.30 GPMG

The conversion was relatively cheap, allowing the fledgeling nation to develop light tanks and begin to develop its light-tank tactics and crew.
