Am I correct in saying the Russians currently use the HJ-8 model?

How many tris should I be aiming for here?

Well all our current stationary ATs are around 4k tris (without deployable dirt base, but with legs etc) for there 3p models (not much in the 1p models btw other than a slightly rounder tube if in view and 3D scope with reticle to view).

I would aim for under 5k tris if you can, 6k would be just about acceptable with good LODs but only if really required but I don't think you will need that many tbh.

Right now your making your model far too round on areas that really don't need to be that rounded. Small things like legs and bolts don't need so many sides to them where larger things like the main tube do need more sides to look as round.

I suggest looking at the current ATs in the editor and seeing how they are made and where they have made compromises in there tri counts and do the same for yours might help you out a lot here :)
