Scout Tanks

Scout Tanks tend to have graphics that show wheels rather than treads, look more like jeeps than tanks, and have rather smaller guns. They also have wheel icons on the left of their spinner on the Battle and Edit Teams screens. Scouts are most known for having 2 or more First Strike panels on their spinners, and doing slightly less damage than Assault Tanks. A team of Scout Tanks paired with a tank that gives a bonus to First Strike, using Targeting and Jammer, is a solid way to farm the AI and can get you moderately high in the PVP rankings as well, especially once Targeting II and Jammer II become available.
