Welcome Tank trooper.
This handbook will be used to teach new NCOs how to properly use the tank, as well as the guidelines so they may be battle ready when the time comes.
Before we begin, please ensure the trainee is the rank of SGT+. That is the minimum requirement for tank certification.
Lets go over the vehicles available to the Tank trooper corps, as well as a brief description of them;
C-PH patrol Speeder bike: It is one person bike and has one powerful gun on its side. It's used for Patrolling and escorting
This may not be spawned at 90+ players and may NEVER be spawned on the ship .
K79-S80: The main ground transport vehicle. It can fit up to 14 passengers and has two weapons, the first is the pilots forward facing blaster cannons and the next is the co-pilots roof twin laser cannons.
This may be spawned any time for patrols and transports.
TX-427: The heavy Cavalry of the Tank trooper corps. It fits up to 6 passengers and has two heavy weapons. The pilot uses a small laser cannon for light attacks but uses the hail fire rockets as the main heavy weapon. The co-pilot has full access to the top heavy cannon.
