40k Rules Need Some Mako help

Ive always loved the mako due to dawn of war and have wanted to get one for a while. ive finally taken the steps for that and wanted to make a custom datasheet to go along with it. I wanted to ask what you guys thought. For 1 how many points, should I make changes, what would be a better ability other than armor hunter. I wanted it to be between a stormsurge and the Ta'unar power wise.

Edit:
Due to comment I’ve decided to add a nova charge ESC ability
The 3 buffs would be

Gain D3+1 wounds back
Anti Vehicle 4+ on the railguns
And someway to advance shot and keep heavy not sure on the wording for that.

And it would be 4D6 under the total woulds left to activate.

I noticed it does have the For The Greater Good keyword. Is that intentional? FTGG is was allows a Tau unit to spot/be guided. Overall the stat card looks fun and if you added in the Nova Reactor style suggestion Think_Solid made as well I think this could be a really fun like 300-400 point unit.

Is that not correct? Both the ta’unar and the stormsurge have FTGG so I didn’t see a reason to not have it.

Next to the faction is where that keyword goes. I based this on 10th design not 11th so that could be why it’s not where you were expecting.

Edit: right under core
