These are very nice drawings (but that's not a surprise), though top-view of T3201 lacks some details from side-view (like smoke grenade dischargers on the turret).
But the "b-side" description, esp. 2nd paragraph about the 180mm artillery piece is painful to read.
Two things - in the context of "large" artillery "gun", "howitzer" and "gun-howitzer" have particular meanings and I have a suspicion that You don't quite see the difference between them. Also "mountains" and "tanks" (in the 1st paragraph) don't go well together. ;)

I have just put on my glasses and see that I have to rewrite the entire text :mrgreen: :

- the details, that lacks in the top-view. they was added at last... and thus failed to be updated on to the top-view.
- I am not happy with that text to, late in the night and just wanted to get the text finish, before going to bed is never a good idea.
- The howitzer, was designed for an self propelled gun armed with an howitzer. I have to rewrite the text so it comes out a bit more clear.
- Oh that mountains, I could have write occupied or hilly company, but mountain had a swing in my head at that time. hm. yeah funny that.

Generally "self propelled gun armed with a howitzer" is called "self propelled howitzer". ;)
In practice of English language "(artillery) gun" describes something that shoots at relatively flat trajectories ("direct fire" - more or less "straight ahead") - like anti-tank, anti-aircraft or long-range artillery for example (and that includes also majority of naval artillery), and "howitzer" describes something that shoots at very angled trajectories ("indirect fire" - for example to targets that are covered behind something). Gun-howitzers tend to combine features of both.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to see further drawings in this thread. :)
