There was a quite extensive concept study as part of the ACVT program, conducted around 1979-1982, in which 25 designs were explored. They considered both 75mm and 90mm Ares autocannons and different weight ranges, from 16t all the way to 60t. A book by R.P.Hunicutt about Sheridan light tank (page 156-159) gives a rather detailed overview of ten 16t concepts and their technical drawings, specifically concepts 1 through 11 but exluding concept 5, which was wheeled. An overview of concept 5 can be found in an unclassified report ADA120737.

Do we know anything about remaining 14 concepts and how they looked?
