So it has an even higher ground pressure. The non-segmented area is still as heavy and the total weight is likely similar to the suggested vehicle. There are numerous issues with the concept, but length or weight aren't those issues unless you're armouring it like an MBT instead of an SPAAG.

Quads of truth. SHOYGU! Get on it!
I do have to ask though, why is there a distinct lack of radars on this thing except for the single piddly 9S86 ranging radar on the Strela launcher? Good taste with choosing Kubs though, motor performance may have been eh but their concept was good.
Artillery and terrain. Same things that killed the maus. But please, waste the money to put a company sized element of air defense into a single vehicle when you could do the same thing with 5 vehicles and not have it all explode at once from a single mortar or artillery shell.
Rocket equation where your volume of steel to fuel storage is too high.
Long, singular track place excessive stress on drive shaft, will likely need multiple engines placed across the tank along the length, at which point coordinating the engines to "work together" becomes a nightmare and you might as well have the length divided into multiple tracks, at which point you have multiple tracks that are liable to dislodge at any time, at which point you start wondering whether your stupid ass contraption can outrun counter artillery/rocket strikes, then you remember your two ostensibly AA measures are not coupled with any actual radars to begin with, rendering them LOS at best
who the frick is reloading the rockets
how much cheaper and faster would the whole thing be if you just put all 6 weapon systems on towed carts, and have some tractors/BMPs lug them around while carrying the crew, and how much more protection do you get from the additional mobility and reduction in maintenance compared to armor that's both too thick and heavy to dodge incoming fire, as well as too thin against any divisional level fire asset that will score at the very least a mobility kill and very likely secondary detonation on the three dildos on top
weight? size? operational range? the amount of fuel this thing would consume would require a strong logistical supply line for any extended operations. And thats ofcourse only on paved roads, god forbid you try and drive a monstrosity like that through bad terrain or even any terrain when it's raining. On the other hand it does look really cool
> That's a lot of firepower taken out at once if it gets hit by anything. Which it will, since it's big and slow
Seriously. If anything, the Ukraine war has shown the benefit of small, fast, mobile, easily hidden weapons platforms. Slow, obvious targets are a liability. These threads are made by children who don't realize that if it made sense to do, it would be done.
What’s the point. You’re combining strategic and tactical anti-air. This is like putting an 81mm mortar on a 155mm self-propelled howitzer. Sure you can, but why? What does this offer you? Either your mortar isn’t being used or your howitzer is being used at point blank range.
Turrets hit each other and the back blast from the missiles would damage or detonate the rest of the stuff. Also how would it even move and how much fuel does it take to run it?

It is very cool anon, I would also like to have one
That's a big boy right there
for you
What about mines?
I want to FRICK a Bolo.
whats the friggin point meatman
Rivers.

Needs to be longer
I got you senpai
MORE!
LONGER
That's not tracked.

Length and weight are both huge issues.
>concentrating at least 4 vehicles-worth of AA onto 1 chassis
Destined to explode violently.
This, you could just have 4 vehicles which in turn give you more tactical flexibility.
Did the artist draw another equally cartoonish monstrosity with a bunch of radars? If yes then its perfect
there's no fire control radar for any of the two Shilkas or the Kub

God, I wish we were.

Where is the RADAR?
So you are pretty much safe from the air, what if a tank turns up?
5 separate vehicles will be harder to wipe out, one of those weapons need separate control and radar vehicle anyway
Because it looks russian made.

By the power of OP(homosexual) it is now Ukrainian-made

Himars or guided artillery will bust all those 4 vehicle worth of frankenstein shit

Just put a reactor in it

I can't believe you wasted perfectly good quads on this
That's a lot of firepower taken out at once if it gets hit by anything. Which it will, since it's big and slow

It would break in half on small rock
As has been stated, track length would make this fricker be able to go in a straight line and pretty much nothng else.
Physics?

Rain, rivers, logistcs, supplies.
