Druzynik Tank



Druzynik picture

Druzynik size

Picture demonstrating the huge size of the Druzynik tank, compared to a normal-size human being.

The Druzynik is a Russian tank that has been on Spectrum’s side and against it when the Mysterons managed to capture one.

Access

The Druzynik is huge and extremely slow, but its firepower makes up for that tenfold. The only thing that can take down a Druzynik is another Druzynik.


The crew manning the Druzynik access the inside of the tank through a set of stairs and a hatch in the front.


Although the tank can be operated by a single person, it usually has a crew of at least one driver and one gunner.


Firepower Sinking

The tank features six decoy flare launchers, four rocket launchers, and the gun on the turret is powerful enough to raze a small town.


The very few weak points the Druzynik have are its immense weight, which means it cannot travel on all types of terrain, and the fact that it is not watertight, so should it sink, its crew has very little, if any, chance to survive.
