Couldn't you field some Deffkoptas? TL Rokkits on a Deffkopta hit at about 55% with BS2, which is actually a greater hit ratio than Kans. With the added mobility and a Buzz Saw per model, that could conceivably be your AT choice while retaining a precious Heavy Support slot.

Unfortunately, Deffkoptas suffer if taken in a squadron due to moral when losing a single unit - and they are only str7 on the charge with a buzzsaw. Being 50pts each without the buzzsaw makes them a more epxensive choice than Killa Kanz, which are vehicles, and have strength 10 dreadnought close combat weapons. They may have a 5% increase in chance to hit, but it's arguable if that alone makes up for their shortfalls in comparison to kanz (or grot tanks, if applicable).
