2S3 Acacia
From 1d4chan
In Team Yankee
Now the 2S3 might look like just another 2S1, in the same way that we Soviets have 3 different SAM tanks, but looks can be deceiving.
First off, the 2S3 is a lot less mobile than the 2S1 with an inferior cross rating of 4+ and is not amphibious, meaning that this thing is a dedicated backline support platform rather than an assault gun. This shouldn't really be a problem though as your 152mm Howizer has a range in excess of 7 feet.
