The Medium Tank is the main battle tank of the Global Defense Initiative. Note: Currently under revision by Lightning. Some information may be missing or inaccurate.
Appearance
The Medium Tank is a gold-colored rectangular-shaped tank with standard treads. It has a large cannon as almost as wide as the body mounted on the top.
Function
The Medium Tank is the most common GDI vehicle in the game. It is equipped with a cannon that is capable of destroy most of Nod tanks and structures.
Strategy
Usage
The Medium Tank is the most versatile vehicle in the Global Defense Initiative's arsenal with many uses. The most common use is mounting siege into the enemy base as a large group. This will require assistance of Engineers and Hotwires to keep the tanks alive. Medium Tank can survive one-on-one head on combat with most Nod ground vehicles. However, it is wise to keep distance from the Flame Tank
Most players will choose Medium tank over Mammoth Tank. Due to having overall superior mobility at the cost of armor and firepower.
Counters
GDI players are commonly using this vehicle as their main weapon. A group of anti-tank infantry can take on the vehicles as long as the repairs aren't too strong. Consider employing snipers to assassinate the Engineers and Hotwires in order to out-damage the enemy repairs.
The three primary Anti-Vehicle classes for The 
Brotherhood of Nod are:
- Rocket Soldier - GDI & NOD basic Anti-Vehicle class
- Laser Chaingunner - NOD's Equivilent to Gunner
- Raveshaw - NOD's Equivilent to Sydney
A well-placed Airstrike can totally ruin a whole Medium Tank siege / rush.
Trivia
- The Medium Tank closely resembles the M1 Abrams tank.
- The Medium Tank is the only vehicle in the game with a Coaxial Machine Gun.
- The Medium Tank is one of two regular vehicles with multiple weapons, the other being the Mammoth Tank which is also used by GDI.
