A tank concept I made.
I don't believe that the placement of the main gun was a good idea. It looks like it would offset the stability of the tank as it would make one side heavier than the other. I'm also concerned about its ability to keep track of a target when firing. As the recoil of the gun would be more to its right it would force the turret to shift to the right. Likely causing damage to the turret ring and to the mechanical parts for the turrets rotation.
AFIK, EMT guns have lower recoil than that of the conventional munition and the smaller caliber and the massive muzzle brake are added primarily to counter that.
And this is the only practical way I can think of for installing a clip fed simple autoloder without using a Oscillating turret.
