Description The remake version of this one: www.deviantart.com/vnpilot12l4…

After many times, the final, mass-produced version of the "super heavily armored" self-propelled gun of the United Empire has shown itself. 2 330mm guns, 6 127mm guns and 4 40 mm autocannons, this thing will make the Maus looks like a humble mouse while parking next to it. Packed with a shield generator and an anti-grav device, it is practically a monitor on tracks. In fact, it spends most time flying in the sky, only lands in several occations. The monster's so huge some people called it a thing came right out from sci-fi novels. However, considering that this is the United Empire, the fact that they can pull out of their ass not just 1 or 2, but thousands of these beasts means something. In a world where Godzilla belongs to the lower half of the food chain, having something like this is seen as "a must". 

Yes, it is an airship. Shaped like tank. And used like artillery. The mini reactor it has produces around 170000 shp, however due to the track configuration, it can only crawl slowly on land. Not that it matters, since the vehicle mainly flies to its destination. 

Class: Design 1916 super heavily armored SPG. 

Armament: 
- 2 x 330mm/L50 guns.
- 6 x 127 mm/L38 howitzers.
- 4 x 40 mm autocannons. 

Protection: 
- Front hull: 450 mm.
- Front + top turret: 510 mm.
- Main gun protect blocks: 460 mm.
- Side + rear turrets: 380 mm.
- Side + casemates: 330 mm. 
- Rear hull: 300 mm. 
- Belly: 480 mm. 
- Material: 2 layers of steel-titan-Stalinium alloy, with a layer of lead (for anti-radiation warfare) in the middle.  

Performance: 
- Max speed: 60 km/h (on land, anti grav activated), 400 km/h (flying). 
- Effective firing range: 28 km (on land). 
- Max firing range: 32 km on land using conventional shells, 120 km with rocket-propelled rounds (UE secret weapon). 
- Rate of fire: 2 rounds per minute.
- Reserves: 100 shaped-charge non-radiating 30 Kt nuclear rounds for 2 main guns (50 each).

They are mainly used as monitors and SPGs, but that doesn't stop them from going full BANEBLAAADDDDDEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Currently, the UE is planning to build a new version of the Design 1916, using its chassis but replace the main turret with a set of 8 400mm nuclear jet-propelled guided flying bombs. Basically making ICBMs since those things are calculated to be able to fly indefinitely - on theory - and can carry warheads up to 30 Kt of TNT. or tip them with neutron warheads. Either works.  

And this thing was made in 1916, lol.
