The MBT-67 is a step-up from the MBT-104 'Carrion' Main Battle Tank. It offers more firepower and higher mobility. This tank is unique in that it has a mortar that can be lifted and aimed hydraulically and autoloaded. It uses the Strix mortar round, which is guided to targets via infrared.

This tank can also carry a compliment of 3 fully-armed soldiers in what is usually used as an extra ammunition storage bay.

The Galm is fully protected from all top-attack munitions and landmines. It is able to withstand extremely high powered explosions without damage to the tank itself. The crew of the tank is protected by extra layers of anti-spall armor to defend against HE and HESH rounds.

The MBT-67 is also fully protected against all weapons of mass destruction. The only WMD able to destroy the tank is a nuclear weapon. The tank uses the Kleen-Air system developed in Asgarnieu, that purifies the air 7 times through different types of filters.
