Or you could make an anti-tank vehicle from your CV90 IFV like this:
CV 90105 ANTI-TANK VEHICLE
The CV 90105 anti-tank vehicle is fitted with a Giat TML turret armed
with a
105 mm stabilised gun and has day and night sights for both commander
and
gunner. The vehicle is operated by a crew of four, the commander,
gunner,
driver and loader.
The TML 105 turret is equipped with a two axis stabilised 105 mm CN 105
G2
NATO standard gun. The gun laying system is power stabilised and
controlled
by a digital computer. The elevation range of the gun is -6 to +18
degrees
and the traverse is n x 360 degrees. Secondary armament consists of a
7.62
mm coaxial machine gun and a roof/pintle mounted 7.62 mm machine gun. A
Galix self- defence system is also fitted.
The turret is fitted with a SAVAN 15 stabilised sight supplied by SAGEM.
SAVAN 15 is a derivative of the stabilised sight developed for the
Leclerc
main battle tank and includes a thermal imager. The turret provides
protection against 7.62 mm weapons at any range. The gunner's sight can
also
be fitted with an infra-red charge-coupled device (IRCCD) thermal
imaging
system. The commander's station can be equipped with periscopes and
panoramic stabilised sights.

While not a MBT, it's a good AT vehicle.
