Original Note:
This is a self-propelled howitzer, not a tank. A tank is built to break through enemy line and destroy enemy opposition with direct fire. Howitzers' armor however is too thin to survive direct fire. They are designed to fight enemies spotted miles away with indirect fire. https://www.forbes.com/sites/sebastienroblin/2020/11/25/this-is-not-a-tank-a-laypersons-guide-to-armored-fighting-vehicles/?sh=2ed887a41831
