The '''Hegedüs KT3 Konnik''' is a Ruvelkan self-propelled tank destroyer developed and manufactured by the Hegedüs Conglomerate. The Konnik was created to meet the requirements of the [[Imperial Armed Forces of Ruvelka|Ruvelkan Armed Forces]] to find a sufficient replacement for their aged [[KT2 Lancer Light Tank|KT2 Lancers]]. In contrast to Hegedüs’ previous project, the [[KH2 Ghost Main Battle Tank|KH2 Ghost]], the Konnik is light and air-mobile; however it is still capable of engaging and defeating tanks and hard-skinned vehicles. The main armament of the Konnik is capable of firing APFSDS, HE-Frag, HEAT, and ATGM ammunition. Due to its lightweight, the Konnik is both very maneuverable and amphibious at the cost of light armor protection.
