ELC Even 30

Lert: One of the prototypes / variants of what would become the AMX ELC was the ELC Even 30:     It was basically an early ELC chassis with an ugly oscillating pedestal type turret on top with two 30mm Hispano Suiza HS825 cannons and two 7.62mm machine guns.     The ELC Even was intended for AA and anti-infantry use. However, with limited elevation its AA capabilities were suspect at best.     The Hispano Suiza HS825 guns were designed for aircraft use, but not much information is available about them. Just that they fired a 30x136 cartridge and were belt-fed.     The Luchs and Leopard show that a 30mm autocannon armed tank would be viable in this game. However, the German MK103 autocannon in those tanks fired a much more powerful 30x184 cartridge.   I think the ELC Even would make a viable tier 4 light tank. What it would lack in firepower it would make up in stealth and with its twin 30mm autocannons it would still rip softer tanks to ribbons. Although the HS825 was considerably less punchy than the MK103, the Pz I C proves that you don't need hundreds of millimeters of penetration to have fun, and the 30x136 would be considerably more powerful than the 7.92x94 that the Pz I C carries.
