The Cunturion Mk. IV was a planned close support variant of the Centurion. Initially there was a requirement for 10% of Centurion tanks produced to be close support tanks, but this requirement was later dropped and none were built in this configuration.
It has the same 95 mm howitzer as all other close support tanks except for the Crusader tanks and the Matilda III CS. The large turret means the main gun is reloaded faster.
In difference to the A41 Centurion it has a machine gun instead of a Polsten 20 mm cannon next to the main gun. The Coaxial Besa has a higher rate of fire than usual, making it more effective against infantry.
The model was made by Nanntetokai, the texture by Ningen and tweaks to implement the vehicle into the mod were done by FHSWman.
