T-80U

The T-80U is a Main Battle Tank currently used by Karelia, used alot more new tank concepts for the Laatokka Munitions tank designers at the time. As an attempt at improved mobility, the T-80U utilizes a Dual Large Standalone Electric engine setup, which it uses to achieve moderate to good speeds.
Initially, the tank had mobility problems but was still very much usable. However the mobility problem was mostly remedied later on by Helleman, an ABMC engineer who opted to help improve its mobility. This resulted in the T-80UM, which has hydraulic suspension and a new gearbox setup. Unfortunately, it seems the tank is quite unstable mobility wise in this setup in current ACF. Another setback it has is its armaments, while allowing for more armour, it suffers from lower power compared to other MBTs, using a 120mm Cannon instead of opting for a 140mm Cannon, aswell as using a 30mm and not a more powerful option. 
This was also the first Karelian tank to use the funny black smoke
