Devil's Tongue

The Devil's Tongue was essentially a subterranean version of the Flame Tank used for sneak attacks and against infantry.

Developement
Nod commanders recognized that the Flame Tank weapon was primarily used against infantry and structures, and had to be used at close range. However, it often had to face GDI armored vehicles before it reached that point. Therefore, they decided to mount the Devil's Tongue flamethrower on a subterranean platform. Now the flametank could travel underground and emerge immediately adjaicent to its target. Unfortunately, they had to sacrifice armor to mount the sophisticated tunneling mechanisms, but the end product was still considered a success.
