T95E3

The T95E3—along with the T95E2—were used primarily to test the automotive capabilities of the T95. Although they were initially built as insurance against the potential failure of the smoothbore gun program, the appearance of more powerful weapons eliminated the need for these vehicles.

However, the T95E3 proved to be a valuable asset in evaluating the performance of a 45-ton tank. It was effectively a T54E2 turret mounted onto the T95 chassis.

In-game, compared to the actual T54E2 as I proposed it, this tank simply has a worse hull in exchange for better mobility.
