I've already made the lore for this one so...

the name of the craft is HM-03 Strider
Owned by Zemonth and made by a company called Bismuth Motors

so uhhhh, why is this thing made? it seems impractical in design. plus the spare engine on the back is too heavy to carry in the first place!

well here's the thing

sometimes in warfare, you don't want to just damage your enemy territory and claims them

sometimes, you'll want to destroy their minds too

that's right

Zemonth (Which is the same warmongering corporation who claims they'll defend their country Falklands even though they're just in for the cash) use this thing ENTIRELY for phycological warfare only

but the thing is, these tanks on 4 jet engines on hydraulic struts actually did their job pretty well being an MBT. despite their well ya know, everything else that can go wrong, these bad boys has caused 302m dollar in damage to their enemy territory, including 1 aircraft carrier fleet sunk and only 8 of em lost during battle! (which is actually pretty bad because only 23 of these things are made)

and they're pretty speedy as well, can reaching to speed at most 277mph on flat surface, these things are surely a monster of a "ground" unit and are a pesky pest to deal with (if you're on the opposite sides of course). and they can hover on water, which most tank in this universe couldn't.

Oh yeah and the launcher? they're mini ICBM fitted into a tube, it can sunk a whole ship in one blow.

(By the way Bismuth Motors aren't completely evil they're just dragged into the conflict when Zemonth decided to join in the conflict, and now are forced to make war vehicles by Zemonth against their will (they're once a mining vehicle industry))

    Smoke launchers:
    Blow up the tank, causing the enemy to no longer see the tank, nor the crew to see their family.
    An eye for a eye.
