Description

State-of-the-art tank vehicle made for combat in rough terrain. Driver, gunner, and 2 passengers are seated within its thick armour plating, protected from harm - whilst the gunner still has 360 degrees line of sight for targeting foes. Its powerful engine allows for a moderate top speed, with moderate acceleration but excellent turning ability due to its 4 chain tracks.
