It also features a numberplate in the front that will generate a new number when it is rezzed (or can be changed manually). The tank also features a parade mode allowing the driver to pop out of the hatch.
The tank is compatible with BNWCS. linden combat, and has basic vice support (hopefully more coming soon).

Astaro make the tank!
It's has popular combat system to do combating RP in Second Life.
Vice is okay but only okay
This tank has potential but not in VICE at the moment. Also tank wants to jump out of place when you fire, there are a few times it practically shot its self over on its side. Another when giving support on a canal it jump shot into the water. Does thing need brakes or something? I'm a VICE user, so in that regards it gets a 3. Looks decent, its cheap yes but the thing about it leaping around when it fires is rather aggravating.

The best stupid purchase I have ever made.
I love this tank. I had low expectations for it because it was so cheap. Everything works on it. It shoots, it moves, and the treads actually turn. This thing is a magnificent piece of SL engineering. I will be buying one of these for my alt as well. Very much worth the L$600 I spent on it. Will be recommending this to my friends.
Great Little Tank
I purchased this tank to serve as the primary armored fighting vehicle. As far as appearances and the weapons it is a good little fighter that punches above it's weight. The ability to customize the appearance is a great feature and nicely done.
Downsides are a bit on the bad side. During LLCS combat the vehicles armor is nonexistent and once you get killed the tank will stay where you died. I found this frustrating as I attempted to recover my downed tank against a larger force.
All in all though though it's a good tank with multiple ammunition choices. It has some faults that limit it's deployment. All of these can be easily fixed in an update so I'm not going to be too harsh.

Trusted Reviewer says: "Possibly one of the best tanks in second life!"
After spending approximately $15,000L (about $60 USD real world) testing various tank models I came across this gem and be it one of the most affordable it is also one of the best in the simple fact that aside from being low land impact and looking nice it actually works!
If you are thinking about a real combat vehicle don't let the size and price fool you and consider this one first before wasting your money on anything else. Most tanks on the marketplace sadly (despite being listed at combat vehicles) are either worn attachments or role-play type vehicles that utilize special systems/huds you have to pay extra $ for to work.. While the LFT-30 works perfect straight out of the box!
Yes, you can actually shoot stuff with this, do damage, and utilize it as a true combat vehicle! Ontop of that and many customization features you can also set it to allow your friends to use so they don't have to go out and spend money on extra items. Simply rez an extra tank, click it for the user friendly menu, and allow access.
Again check this one out first if you want an actual combat vehicle opposed to an RP prop, although for RP its nice too and has an extremely low land impact.
The problem with other tanks are they are either high on prims, use only special combat systems, are worn and not actual vehicles, and cost to much. This beauty address all those issues and *WORKS* so look no further.
Personally when not goofing off with friends or shooting zombies I use it as an anti-greif tool since most attack huds cant effect a person if their seated in a vehicle. So you can turn LL damage on your land equip your own combat huds and also utilize this things cannon on the side while remaining mobile!
Excellent built at an insanely low price/prim-rate given the competition. Don't get "moo-moo-milked" for money with more expensive and less functional tanks. Its small but its not the size that counts in these things, its how you use it! The Astaro LFT-30 is recommended!
