Devil's Tongue Flame Tank
The Flame Tank was an experimental multi-purpose weapon developed by the Brotherhood of Nod. The tank was comprised of twin fixed flame cannons joined to two large pressurized napalm tanks on its back. The driver's canopy was located between the giant flamethrowers. The whole vehicle rested on a light tracked chassis. The armour of the vehicle was non-existent, as the weight of the fuel on the tank and the size of the weaponry prohibited all but the minimum protection for the operator.

The resulting tank was a fast, versatile weapon, dangerous to infantry and buildings alike. The vehicles usually projected their napalm weaponry in brief bursts to prevent accidental combustion of the fuel tanks ; however, a special model utilized by the Black Hand was more capable of sustained projection ( as well as a turret that could move independently of the treads. ) Its main weakness was the lack of armor and short ranged weaponry, compensated to a degree when operating in conjunction with other tanks of the Brotherhood.

Weaknesses
The flame tank was vulnerable to GDI Humvees and APCs because of the Flame Tank's short range weaponry and the fragility of its design, and their major bane were armored units, Mammoth tanks in particular. Battlefield records indicate that to effectively counter enemy armour, flame tanks had to be deployed in packs of five or six.
