OOC: Please let me know how I did, I based these on the U.S's tanks of similar design, except with a few add-ons. Becasue this is my first time making specs for weapons I would like comments.

The years of blood sweat and toil over the new Makai research project has come to an end. Last night the first of these Makai type war machines rolled off the assembly lines and drove through Republic Skyway in the capitol of Kattor. The Sumpreme Chancellor annouced that these tank will be sold at a minimum of 50 per country due to it's difficulty to produce. "This", he said "Will help cement our place in the global community as an arms producing nation, and hopefully bring peace to war torn regions."
