Description
In 3030, Aldis Industries deployed the successful follow up to its venerable Demolisher design, the slightly lighter Zhukov. While it shares many of the parts and features of the design that inspired it, the Zhukov is smaller, better armored, and packs less weaponry than its predecessor. Its first major deployment was with the Wolf's Dragoons whereupon the Zhukov has since seen constant improvements and tweaks as suggested to Aldis Industries by the field units that use it. Despite this, the Zhukov's constant updating was eventually halted by Aldis Industries in 3058 when it could no longer keep the design in pace with advancing technologies.<ref=name=TRO3058p68>Technical Readout: 3058, p. 68, "Zhukov Vehicle Profile"</ref>[2]
Armament
The Zhukov's strength is its relative simplicity. Two turret mounted Autocannon/10s are more than adequate at providing sufficient firepower for the discriminating buyer while imitating its larger cousin the Demolisher. A single SRM-6 offers some added punch to anything daring to venture closer to the Zhukov.<ref=name=TRO3058p68/>[2]
Variants
- Zhukov (WoB) - The Word of Blake introduced a advanced Zhukov equipped with an Improved C3 Computer, a pair of Large Variable Speed Pulse Lasers, and a single MML-7. Additional armor and CASE protects the tank crew from ammunition explosions. To make room for all these changes this version is equipped with an XL Engine. BV (2.0) = 939[4]
- Zhukov (LB-X Variant 1) - This variant change the normal AC/10 for the LB-X version and the SRM is only a 4 tube version. The protection is increased through CASE and the unit is part of a C3i network.[5] BV (2.0) = 956[6]
- Zhukov (Liao LB-X Variant) - The CCAF modernized their vehicle with the LB-X class and the SRM 4. The units possess a C3 Slave and Guardian ECM equipment.[5] BV (2.0) = 1,021[7]
Related Vehicles
- Demolisher - An older tank whose effectiveness is well known and is a parts donor to the smaller Zhukov.
