Since it possesses a secondary canister shell attack, it can decimate infantry squads with ease due to its large area damage. The armor plating has also been improved, able to survive multiple shots from the [[Hunter|Hunter's]] [[Assault Cannon]], and can survive a sustained hit from the [[Scarab|Scarab's]] main gun twice as long when compared to the [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpion]]. The co-axial machine gun has a faster firing rate and inflicts more damage per hit than the [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpion's]], at the cost of taking a little longer to reload. Its main disadvantages are its turret's slow turning rate and the cost it requires to be researched. It is also a bit ineffective against airborne units. | ||
