Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Kōwhai

"Kōwhai here and barrels loaded!"

-Kōwhai exiting armor facility

The Kōwhai is the MBT of the Delteroa Self Defense Force. Planned to be voiced by Ryan Bartley (default)

Tactical analysis

 * Sextuple threat: Despite its small size the Kōwhai is a deadly MBT that deals the first, likely killing, strike. Its armor tough enough to withstand small arms fire, albeit that's the limit, and fast enough to get into position and retreat over land or sea, thanks to amphibious capabilities
 * Sextuple tap: The strength of the Kōwhai is the six wind cannons mounted on the turrets, each firing a concussive blast strong enough to crack open an MBT armor and shatter bones and fired in rapid sequence from a longer than average range, allowing it can tear apart any armored target before retaliation
 * Wait for it: When not in motion, the Kōwhai automatically goes invisible, which can lead enemy forces into making dangerous mistakes. The Kōwhai also deals increased damage while camouflaged, as the crew takes time to target the vehicle's weakpoints. In addition, the Kōwhai can mark out a single target for even more damage
 * I'm reloading as fast as I can: But the position of their cannons also means it's a chore to reload, meaning that it has no choice but to run once it fires its salvo if the target survives, especially since it must be still to fire. Combined with its paper-thin ceramic armor and inability to deal with aircrafts means a caught Kōwhai is a dead Kōwhai

Trivia

 * The vehicle is based off the Ontos tank destroyer, and by proxy the peacock tank destroyer from red alert paradox, and the mirage tank from red alert 2
