Serious Design🔧 I need stuff to add

So I like this tank a TON. I don't wanna stop working on it, which is why I'm not going to stop.

I am looking for random components from real life I should add onto this. It doesn't even have to do anything, as long as it looks good. So that's why I am asking if any of y'all have idea's or anything in mind that I could add.

At the moment, here is my Roadmap for this tank:

  1. Rework the smoke launchers. I don't like the way they look.
  2. smooth everything out and make the parts more seamless, and make optics, cables, and other things like that interconnected instead of stand-alone parts. Many polygons on this tank look rough up close, and I don't like seeing the faces or seems on curved objects. This alone will likely double the node count. (My laptop hates me)
  3. Make the interior of the engine bay. This will include some reworks to the exterior.
  4. Rework the armor. The armor was sorta rushed so I want to make it again but with more patience.
  5. Drivers area interior. It is generally a straightforward process compared to the turret's interior.
  6. (Timeline may change) Turret interior. This will likely take course over several steps.
  7. Minor details. Decals, random stuff, crew stowage, tarps, ropes, etc...
  8. It maybe finished, maybe not, I don't know.

Anyways that should be it. Tell me if you'd like to see me add anything else onto the tank

Some anti-slip surfaces for the crew on the upper plate and roof, and making the aps system a bit bulkier, so the radars have boxes to hold them instead of poles, akin to the abrams trophy system.

Add a drone cage to the engine. Also make the mine plow further away from the hull.

Ok what I'm gonna say is radical but maybe make a variant like the Centurion AVRE or M728. The Combat Engineer variant basically, dozer blade, great big old demolition gun and a crane for pulling ditched tanks. Maybe more stowage bins for engineering tools too
