Description

While often derided as a poor man's Rommel/Patton tank, the simply constructed and dependable Po Heavy Tank, named by Romano Liao for the mischievous and vengeful spirit of Chinese tradition, has become the principal combat vehicle on Capellan worlds lacking 'Mech units. Selected as a Light Gauss Rifle testbed by the FWLM in the late 3050's, even though this model boasted far superior range when compared to the old AC/10-equipped original, the reduction in firepower made it unpopular with tank crews and Ceres discontinued production of the variant in 3064.
