AlgoriZone: Main Battle Tanks

Main Battle Tank: As a required Standard choice, these units are aimed primarily at destroying enemy AA and are the core of your ground firepower.

In a MBT vs MBT fire fight, here are the AlgoriZone calculations (kill%):

Threat   Unit        Sabre   Hunter   Hunter   Tomahawk   Tomahawk   Damage        Kill
                                                      Skimmer                      Skimmer       Ares           Ares
28"     Sabre          28%       56%       33%         46%              28%           28%          14%
21"     Hunter        42%       69%       42%         46%              28%           28%          28%
30" Tomahawk     28%       56%       33%          46%              28%           28%         14%
27"      Ares          42%       69%       56%          46%              37%           28%         28%

*With the Longbow Smart Smoke, the 28% becomes (22% (+1Ac) and 17% (+2Ac), respectively.
                                                         the 42% becomes (33% (+1Ac) and 25% (+2Ac), respectively.
** Ares - Targeting Array so Skimmers and Smart Smoke will only work for +1Ac.

TACTICAL TIP:  You may fire through one vehicle in the same squad as the Shooter.  However, remember that the Sabre is articulated so you can use 1" above the hull for drawing line of sight.  Enemy return fire to this point would be at hull down.

       Target  

     A     A     A
     B     B      B
     C     C      C        With articulated, C may fire over B & A (two rows of vehicles)!

TACTICAL TIP (from PipeRider361):  You can land a Condor after dropping off your Sabres and use as a "shield" while using articulated to fire!

As you can see from the above chart, you want to prioritize Tomahawks/Hunters when they dematerialise/disembark as they will lose the skimmer bonus.
