Description
The XM557A1 Knox MIRAGE is a main battle tank designed by the General Armory Corporation in partnership with ARCTECH,
the Antarctic Technology and Weapons Development Center, and ACRA. the Antarcticia Central Researched Agency, specifically for the Antarcticia Army.

This formidable tank is armed with a 120mm cannon and a 30mm autocannon, making it a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.
Its advanced technology and robust construction allow it to operate effectively in extreme cold,
while its powerful engine and advanced defensive systems ensure its reliability in the face of any threat.

The tank is also equipped with the MIRAGE active camouflage system, enhancing its already impressive defensive capabilities
and making it a difficult target for enemy weapons systems.

Overall, the XM557A1 Knox MIRAGE is a highly capable and versatile tank ideally suited for the demands of Antarctic warfare,
ensuring that the Antarctic Army is well-equipped to defend their territory against any threat.

History:
The XM557A1 Knox MIRAGE was first operated by the Antarcticia Union Army in 2037, but its development began in 2010. The tank was designed by the General Armory Corporation, who based its design on the Eurasian M13A1 SSIP. However, in order to make the tank suitable for the harsh and cold conditions of Antarctica, significant modifications were made to its design.
In 2025, ARCTECH, the Antarctic Technology and Weapons Development Center, acquired the design and license for the tank from General Armory Corporation. ARCTECH invested heavily in the development of the tank, with a focus on enhancing its performance in extreme cold weather conditions.
After several years of testing and development, the XM557A1 Knox MIRAGE was finally ready for deployment in 2037. The Antarcticia Union Army was the first military force to operate the tank in combat, where it quickly proved its worth as a highly capable and versatile main battle tank.
Today, the XM557A1 Knox MIRAGE continues to serve as a key component of the Antarcticia Union Army's armored forces, providing them with the firepower, mobility, and advanced defensive capabilities necessary to defend their territory against any threat. Its development represents a significant achievement in military technology and a testament to the skill and ingenuity of the engineers and designers who worked on its development.
