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 HATCV family.
A single variant of the HT-10 exists, the HB-10 Mobile Bridge.
