The AAV-10 Heavy Tank is the most powerful land vehicle employed by the Rethast. Unlike it's light counterpart, it is groundbased and moves using a tread system. The main cannon is also significantly more powerful and turret mounted, allowing a larger firing area. It is, however, far slower and is unable to move through difficult terrain as the LAV-12 can. It is made for 4 crewman, one pilot two to operate the cannon and a single machinegunner.

Primary Weaponry

The AAV-10 is equipped with a single turret mounted AT-04 Anti armour cannon. This weapon gives the tank a powerful punch and is quick to reload. It is still light enough to allow decent mobility of the tank, but is very powerful against all targets.
