The '''HT-10 Tiger''' is a [[wikipedia:super-heavy_tank|super heavy tank]] produced and used by the [[nation/Free_Pacific_States|Federated Alliance of Free Pacific States]]. It is named for the [[wikipedia:Javan_Tiger|Free Pacifican tiger]]. Designed for sustained combat against [[Pax-Draconica|Pax]] [[wikipedia:cyborg|drones]], the HT-10 is extremely heavily armored, and carries a powerful armament. Notable features include a secondary armament of a 35 mm [[wikipedia:autocannon|autocannon]], sophisticated [[wikipedia:composite_armor|compossible armor]], and separate ammunition storage in a blow-out compartment for crew safety. Weighing 119.6 tonnes (131.8 US tons), the HT-10 is amongst the heaviest tanks in service. Though conceived of and named as a heavy tank, the HT-10 is generally recognized as a super-heavy tank, and is commonly referred to by military personnel as the "SHiT."

The HT-10 entered FPS service in 2011, replacing the [[MBT-76 Leopard]] in units stationed on the Pax border, the [[Cuttersville]] border, and in [[Lyon]]. It is complemented in these units by the [[HATCV]]-MT, a medium tank that also entered service in 2011. Army units not stationed along the Pax border use the vastly smaller [[MAWCV]]-LT, a light tank that entered service in 2009. Marine units continue to use the MBT-76, as do many Army units that have yet to completely update to the HT-10, HATCV-MT, or MAWCV-LT.

The HT-10 Tiger is a super heavy tank produced and used by the Federated Alliance of Free Pacific States. Designed for sustained combat against Pax drones, the HT-10 carries 80+ tons of composite armor, stores ammunition in a separate blow-out compartment for crew safety, and has an escape hatch on its underside that is accessible to the entire six-person crew. The heavily armed vehicle features a 120mm smoothbore gun, a 35mm autocannon and a 50-caliber M2HB heavy machine gun. The tank's sizable V-16 diesel engine can propel it to on-road speeds of 65kph (40mph), and off-road speeds of 40kph (25mph). The vehicle is named for the Free Pacifican tiger; its designation is short for Heavy Tank 2010.

The Free Pacifican Defense Department ordered the development of a heavy tank in 2006, following the Drone Insurrection. The Defense Department sought a vehicle capable of effectively combating heavily armed Pax forces along the Pax border. Several companies submitted competing designs for the project, but Osmand Industries ultimately succeeded with the HT-10 design. Osmand completed its design process in 2010, and delivered the first operable Tiger tank in 2011. The Federated Alliance has ordered 650 HT-10s, and Osmand completed the order in 2015. The HT-10 largely replaced the Common Main Battle Tank (CMBT) in units stationed on the Pax border, the Cuttersville border, and in Lyon. The HT-10 is complemented by the AV-14 Rhinoceros; the two share numerous interchangeable parts and use the same fuel and ammunition.

A single variant of the HT-10 exists, the HB-10 Mobile Bridge. The mobile bridge features an extendable bridge placed upon a HB-10 chasis. Osman Industries manufactured 50 HB-10 Mobile Bridges.
