Description
The final SPG tank series to be ever created by the VB TDC ( short for tank development company) used for yet again support for its allies, and used effectively on destroying heavy bunkers, as well as heavy fortifications. This time this SPG is equipped with a first ever auto-loader gun and is now turreted, for maximum support and rapid-firing capabilities.
This tank is a little bit inspired by the Bat-Chat artillery tank. And the idea of being turreted and having a metal shell around the gun, belongs to gunnergoat.deviantart.com/
This tank design coming into reality wouldn't have been possible, without your help my friend! Most of the credit belongs to him, actually!

This tank uses the VB-2 chassis, that was most famously used as an assault tank, to combat against the enemies on the Siegfried line, to further give its allies the advance that they truly need to win the war.
Fitted with several radio devices and comms units capable of signalling out its allies for support at a long firing range
Hull armor
Front: 120mm (with additional armor plating which is up to 78mm thick)
Sides: 70mm
Rear: 40mm
Turret armor
Front: 120mm
Sides: 50mm
Rear: 12mm
Mounts a powerful yet sluggish 186mm auto-loading Howitzer G6H7 gun, which has a maximum clip of over 3 shells, tho it does have a sluggish reloading speed, due to its separate ammo storage.
This tank has maximum ammo capacity of over 28 shells
The G6H7 gun is compatible with AP, HE, and HEAT shells
Having thicker tracks for better grip on slippery and uneven terrain, as well as in mobility, and cross-country performance
As well as being mounted with two 500hp turbine engines for maximum speed and acceleration.

An SPG with an auto-loading gun was clearly needed to further and swiftly support and protect the allies' advance towards the Siegfried line. As the enemy prepares to further improve its defensive capabilities with more and heavier tanks. And so the Military Ministry gave that requirement towards the VB tank development company to create an SPG, but the VB was not known for designing artillery pieces, the company was known for creating various innovative heavy and main battle tank designs.
But anyway accepted the offer. And so development started in the year 1941, and one prototype was built in the early 1942. The ministry was greatly impressed with the design, and immediately started production. It was in the year 1953, that the tank had finally been retired. A total of 1,126 tanks had been produced.

Modification has been done in this vehicle, the turret has been moved slightly to the rear of the chassis
The modification had been requested by LoneWolf071, thanks for helping me out on this artwork!
