STRENGTHS

• Diversity: There is certainly, well at least a few different rounds that can be used, maybe two or three.
• Range: The cannon in an ground emplacement format can function as artillery and fire many kilometers away.
• Recoil: Despite having a massive round when it fires it will take about a second to return to original firing position.
• Damage: It's a 105 mm round, it can punch a hole through many things.
• Firerate: Due to being non-autoloading a skilled crew should be able to place a new round in every three seconds, not factoring in aiming.

WEAKNESSES

• Ammo Capacity: The Cannon can only hold one round at a time.
• Heavy: Anything that this cannon is put into will be heavy.
• Large: It is hard to transport in bulk due to size.

DESCRIPTION
The X75 Cannon is a cannon designed to be placed in tanks and used as artillery. It has an advantage of not being as big as many forms of artillery which means that more can be lined up or it is put into different positions. It is also meant to be used in tanks as it can be modified to fit in a frame. The Cannon has a requirement of at least a team of one but is optimally done with three members.
