Microwave tank

The Microwave Tank was an advanced support tank introduced by the USA in the latter stages of the conflict. By focusing a microwave beam on enemy buildings the Microwave Tank could disable them. Using the same technique it could also clear buildings garrisoned by the enemy. When on the move it generated a microwave field, causing harm to any infantry in the vicinity.

Upgrades

 * Scout Drone/Battle Drone/Hellfire Drone - One of these drones may be selected as an upgrade per unit. The Scout Drone, the most inexpensive, simply provides information to the tank crew that increases their sight range and reveals otherwise difficult-to-spot stealthy units in the vicinity. The Battle Drone is armed with a small machine gun, giving some protection against infantry, and may also repair its parent vehicle. The Hellfire Drone, initially made available later in the conflict, fires a small, but surprisingly effective missile against enemy units. Drones may be upgraded with Drone Armour.
 * Advanced Training

Tactics/Counters
The Microwave Tank was often used in lieu of artillery to disable enemy defensive structures, thus allowing other units to move in and finish the job. In addition, it was used to disable certain important buildings (e.g. Arms Dealers during base assaults, and clear garrisoned buildings from a distance.

However, the tank was useless against enemy vehicles, which it required protection from at all times. Although it was sufficiently armoured to escape small arms attacks, tanks and missiles could quickly finish it off.
