I noticed that the Zhukov gets no canon upgrades between its intro in 3030 and the early 3070s. Here are a few ideas I had for a few intermediate FWLM upgrades

A Fuel Cell engine gains you 8 tons to play with, allows gauss rifle.

Bauldar,
Great minds think alike. Your design is great plus the artwork is a nice touch.

 While i can only admit to modify (really butchered it) it with MS Paint, the real culprit of that masterpiece is unknow to me, but he did it for the fan-made TRO:3063.

thought about a fuel cell, but they aren't listed as common in IO until 3078. These were more "swap out the turret, put some FF armor on it and roll em out" kind of upgrades
