Zhukov

The Zhukov Main Battle Tank was originally designed in June of 2017 while Elias briefly served with the Izakian armed forces. It's primary armament was a large 203mm howitzer, often married with a 50mm cannon and a variety of missiles. The Zhukov is the symbol of Izakian enginuity despite it's foreign origins, seeing service for many many months, all the way through the ISA-IZK war, and up to the present day due to it's stellar performance.
== History ==
The Zhukov was originally designed when Elias had taken the chassis of the Pzkpfw-Raser medium tank from New Germania, and mated it with the turret of the Cougar IX heavy tank from New Germania, giving them a new color scheme and armor layout as a result. The resulting tank was highly mobile with the strongest armament known at the time, and was capable of flanking all MBT's at the time and ending them with just one shot. The vehicle saw service in many battles against various nations, as stated before. It's first run was against ABMC and OHAPIC, where it tore the competition apart and resulted in a total victory. Not too long afterwards, Elias would retire from Izakia, but the vehicle would continue to see service on many battlefields, famously fighting ISA and their T-88 MBT.
