I initially thought of glider/plane slingshot with a runway, but a long-range blade disc launcher would make more sense.

You launch cars from it, of course. AMC Matadors with bolt-on airplane conversions.

OK now I got the idea: the conveyor belt is stripped and made into a ramp, and flywheels will be installed before it.
[Looks a bit like that. Much of the power that once went to the crusher will now go to the flywheels] .
All the car has to do is to line up, then gun it. The car will pass through the flywheels and they’re gonna fly enough distance to clear certain obstacles or go past enemy vehicles.

I do believe that is a Ninja Frisbee training device. No?
Ah, maybe a prototype Posleen aerial denial device. No?
So, possibly a macadam über layer-downer built by Germans? No?
Ok... I don’t have a clue. But it’s got multiple power plants, which makes it cool.

Steam catapult system. 0-140mph in 140ft.

Looks like your planning on repaving a large surface?

Thought so, too. The bars by the side can be made to move around like a turret, or a baseball bat.

Make it like a Destroyer/Battleship on land. All different types of guns all on one platform.

Wow. One, a pair, or four of every cannon and repeating gun in just one rig. That’d rock, and may be a PITA to escort.
Problem is that I have already envisioned a War Rig that does that, and it’ll be based on this.
Front outriggers can have pop-up cannons and mounted with guns, rear outriggers can be swingers. Now to fuss about the boom/gigacannon...

The concrete ballasts could be replaced with some sort of vertically launched missile arrays as well, and the boom would make a great railgun.

Missiles, eh? I was going for a grenade machine gun mount, but yours is sweet, too.
As for the ginormous boomstick, the third extension is the barrel itself, while the second extension moves on rails during recoil.
Or how about a revolver system that uses the first section only?
Last order of business, the Y-guy structure. Possibly a new version of the pole vault thingy?
