History of the Sholef

The Sholef (שולף= “draw, scoot out” in Hebrew) was an Israeli experimental self-propelled artillery developed in the 1980s by Israel Military Industries (IMI) and Soltam. Considered one of the most advanced self-propelled artillery systems of its time, it never entered production and only 2 prototypes were ever created.

Bandkanon 1C - Fast Firing and Explosive

The Bandkanon was a Self-Propelled Artillery Gun developed by Bofors from 1960 to 1965. It was part of a longer Swedish Army project to develop a modern autoloaded SPAG for its forces. The Bkan was based on the S-tank chassis and initially used the powerpack of the A version, which was severely underpowered to drive this 50-ton tank. Because of this, all Bkans were later upgraded to the powerpack of the Strv 103C, giving it the 1C designation.

T30 — When Size Actually Matters

The T30 is an American heavy tank designed in World War Two equipped with a very powerful 155mm cannon which is capable of knocking out even the best armored vehicles in the game with a single shot. This vehicle features surprisingly good mobility for its size as well as a decent armor profile that will make surviving the long reload a relatively easy task.

The M44: The Big Fast Metal Box of Doom

The M44 is a Tank Destroyer introduced in Update 2.43, "Storm Warning", and resides in many tech trees. This vehicle currently sits in Rank III. The M44's 155mm cannon is feared by many due to its higher-than-average HE velocity and quick traverse, although it is also just as vulnerable due to its open-top design.

PLZ05 – Long Live the Artillery Corps

As the representation of PLAGF transformation from Warsaw Pact caliber to NATO caliber howitzer, the PLZ05 is the earlier variant of its family with basic digitized equipment. The hybrid of Russian carousel autoloader and NATO caliber howitzer is what makes PLZ05 unique among its counterparts; the introduction of this artillery piece also fills a gap in Chinese tech-tree with a long-anticipated SPH equivalent to NATO counterparts.
