  • Light tank (Red Alert 1)
rdfs:comment
  • The Light Tank is the smallest and quickest tank in the game; its footprint and speed allows it to dodge enemy tank shells if directed properly. It is among the fastest armored tracked vehicles in the game, only beaten by the APC, and the Minelayers (AT and AP). Like other armored tracked vehicles, it can run over infantry and it is well suited to this due to its speed. The light tank's firepower, speed, low price and fast production often make this tank a weapon of choice of many Allied commanders.

abstract
  • The Light Tank is the smallest and quickest tank in the game; its footprint and speed allows it to dodge enemy tank shells if directed properly. It is among the fastest armored tracked vehicles in the game, only beaten by the APC, and the Minelayers (AT and AP). Like other armored tracked vehicles, it can run over infantry and it is well suited to this due to its speed. The light tank's sole weapon is a 75mm gun, which fires a HEAT projectile against hostile targets. Compared to the main guns of other tanks, while a single shot from the 75mm gun causes the least damage, the 75mm gun also has the fastest reload and this gives the Light tank the highest damage output rate. However, the Light tank's relatively weak armour means that it cannot match Soviet tanks in one-on-one duels without extreme micromanagement to avoid return fire. A Light tank can also be destroyed by a full discharge from a Soviet Tesla Coil. Allied commanders often combine medium and light tanks, using medium tanks to absorb enemy damage, prolonging survivability of the light tank to exploit its higher rate of fire. The light tank's firepower, speed, low price and fast production often make this tank a weapon of choice of many Allied commanders.
