Tank (Helldivers 2)

Shamelessly copied from Super Earth tank designs, the Automaton Tank is plainly inferior in a multitude of aspects. Slow turret traverse and movement speed while ripping-off a 20th century classic! How offensive!

They can be divided into two types:


 * Annihilator Tank - Equipped with a Heavy Cannon.
 * Shredder Tank - Equipped with quad heavy machine guns.

Tactics

 * Annihilator Tanks can appear in difficulties as low as medium, albeit rarely and more probable when multiple Helldivers are assigned to the same mission.
 * The Annihilator Tanks have a 360 field of view, so Helldivers will need physical cover to evade its cannon.
 * The vents on the back of the tank's body and turret are weak-points, allowing Helldivers to damage it more.
 * Top armor of the tank's turret is thinner, allowing for rockets and grenades to deal more damage.
 * Just two grenades (preferably impact grenades) can kill tanks with this method.
 * Destroyed (and active) tanks can be used as physical cover if needed, especially from enemy infantry.
 * You can jump directly on top the tanks turret, making it impossible for it to shoot you.
 * This can be combined with the strategy above, allowing you to target its top armor easily with armor-piercing weapons.
 * This can also be used to turn the Annihilator Tank's cannon, allowing other members of your squad to take aim at its weak point.
 * It will eventually explode upon death, so jump off once it's dealt with.
 * Orbital Railcannon Strikes will target Dropships over Tanks so assure none are in the area before calling one in.
