I heard that the model for the light tank would be a bradley. Wouldnt that be a too detailed?

If we want to be as close to TD as possible, the light tank should be a roughly cuboid shaped thing with a huge turret and a long barrel. Totally the opposite of a bradley.

It may be a bradley in the cutscenes but in the game its a simply drawn tank. REMEMBER???

Whe've had a discussion about the light tank before... its not a bradley, its an Italian tank. Bit like the bradley, but not the same.

because it wasnt the light tank

i think a M551 or M60 would fit the role of a light tank well

[GDI officer]

isnt the m60 a hvy mg?

[ComradeJ]

I thought the M-60 was a Medium or Heavy Tank, while the M-550 has a gun designed for anti-tank purposes, not really what Nod's one does =/

[Godwin]

well nod's light tank isnt really a light tank if you ask me... it didnt get blown up in one shot by the medium tank or something

im sure they wont field super light vehicles for an AT role

[Allied General]

true although hit and run is key like the GLA scorpion, I wonder what upgrades will be implemented....

[ComradeJ]

well nod's light tank isnt really a light tank if you ask me... it didnt get blown up in one shot by the medium tank or something

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Neither did infantry

EDIT: I looked it up, the M60 is also 15 km/h slower than the M1A1. Not much use to it (Therefore I wonder how the M60 became RenAlert's Ltnk =/)

Bradley is an APC. Not the light tank....
While M60 is a MEDIUM tank
and EVEN Sheridan is the Light Tank, but it's look not so close to the nod one
Shat should NOD lighttank REALLY be??? the Return of the Tankette with the better Armor and Gun???

[Paranoid]

Maybe you should make sure you know what your talking about before you go around saying things. A Bradley is not an APC, it was a tank, a tank used for fighting, not for transporting personell around. If it helps, heres the most clear picture i could find of the Bradley.

Wasn't the Bradley an IFV?

[Allied General]

yes it was, its classified as a APC to assist the Abrams, it has inferior armour to that of the Abrams (as critic said) its meant to be like a 21st century replacement for the old M60 or something.

It just has some nice firepower, a 20/25 mm chaingun (can't remember calibre) firing APDS bullets and some AT missiles.

here is the light tank, right from the cutscenes, the VCP-Dardo, that have TowLaunchers and can be fitted with a 105mm cannon

[Allied General]

cool and u sorted out the upgrades 105mm gun and TOW rockets

[Major_Gilbear]

If you want the cutscene/cameo look, the Bradley is the way to go. It is neither an APC nor a tank, but an IFV. It has a 25mm autocannon and two TOW missiles, as well as space for a six-man squad.

If you want the ingame look, I think the T-54/55 might actually be more suitable. Nod doesn't have to use US equipment exclusively, and there are many east-European countries that Nod recruit from...

[Allied General]

Nod originate from Russia

[Kwartjuh]

The tank light tank is gonna look like the one in Garricks post

[Major_Gilbear]

Okay, but that is neither the cameo, cutscene or ingame tank
