Aztechnology "Jaguar" Self-Propelled Howitzer

  The Jaguar is the standard artillery piece used by Aztlan forces, both in the nation and in the contested areas around the Yucatan. It is a highly advanced design, offering many differences over other SP systems.
  The vehicle follows the standard layout, with three crewmembers in the front, with the vehicle commander, gunner, and driver. All have the standard displays and the vehicle is fully rigged. The crew compartment has cabin overpressurization in case of NBC warfare. APPS helps protect the crew from any accidents that should happen. The engine itself is sealed against any leaks or damage to the fuel tanks. Protection is given by standard composite armor, with options for Ablative Armor. This is used extensively in the Yucatan area, with the additional armor stopping the numerous AVMs and ATGMs being fired from the guerrillas. Additionally, the vehicle can accept data from the Liebre UAVs that the Aztlan military uses, as well as accepting data from other units as well. Thermal baffles mounted on the engine area mitigate the vehicle's thermal signature, as well as having increased maneuverability. The vehicle is also fully amphibious as well.
  The vehicle's defensive and offensive systems consist of electronics and cannon. The Jaguar mounts military grade ECM and ECCM for EW protection of the battery. Weaponry consists of an Aztechnology J898 155mm/52 barrel mounted on an extra large turret. Local protection is afforded by two small remote turrets on top of the main turret that mounts Medium Machine Guns fed independently by a belt of ammunition.
