Why, the MCA-7 series of course. Arguably one of the best tanks available in NS, among the heaviest modern MBTs, and among the best protected.

The "official" tank is the T-100 "Ogre", but the bulk of the tanks are T-72 and T-80 Tanks, with about 700 T-90A additionally.

Name-Judgement
Code-ISSAT-90.2
Speed-40 MPH
Year designed-2000
Year released-2009
Firing mode-1 shot per load
Primary armament-150 mm smooth barrel gun
Secondary armament-small chain gun
Fuel-diesel or biodiesel
Armor-12 inch thick flexi composite steel
Price-3,500,000

The judgment is a tank made from the T-90. It is a strong main battle tank. What is most special is its armor. It is a new material which bends more before it breaks. It can also run on biodiesel which is a big help considering that gas is more expensive. It has a large gun which can fire many different shells. It also has a four barreled chain gun which can fire 2,500 shots per minute.

The Indian Soviet Commonwealth of Beddgelert has in service two MBTs (and one lighter mountain tank). This is owing to the fact that with over one and three quarter million tank hulls in service all told, the task of replacing the older model with the newer, larger, more sophisticated machine is on going. BG is a strictly Modern Tech nation without ETC cannons and super-sized calibres and nano-tube armour and all that whizz-bang gubbins.

The MT/TB-110 Tarw ('Bull') Batch 3 main battle tank is most numerous, with around 1.6 million currently available. Its basic technical data is as follows:
Crew: 4
Weight: 48 tonnes
Dimensions: 9.98m length, 3.44m width, 2.6m height
Armour: ~600mm against KE
Primary armament: 110mm smoothbore
Secondary armament: 6.5x50mm co-axial machinegun, 6.5x50mm or 11x72mm anti-aircraft machinegun
Powerplant: 900hp diesel
Suspension: torsion bar
Range: 500km (310mi)
Speed: 64km/h (40mph)

My MBT is the M2032A2 Sabertooth (I use the picture of the Leopard 2A6 for it because I can't draw). It has a 125mm/52-caliber ETC main gun for projectiles & missiles (MGM-235 Corona from DDI). Coax is a 25mm autocannon. It also has an HMG for the commander and LMG for the loader and weighs 76 tons.

A model of our tank for comparison with an average humanoid:
Image
Heavy Defender Tank

These vehicles are extremely powerful and greatly armored but short ranged, and are mostly used as a last ditch offense to hold off attackers so that our infantry can retreat and regroup for a counter offensive.

Other than that battle tanks are only used in military parades and, as such, are produced in very small numbers. We don't use much else in combat other than infantry, but we are making way with research for fighter aircraft in the future.

These are our main assault vehicles:
Image
Blitz Offender Tank

Although also used sparingly (even less than the previously mentioned Defender Tank) these vehicles are used for fast offensives when a chance arrives to punch through enemy lines. Their main tactic is blitzkrieg-type fast paced spearheaded advances.

There are two...

This is the most common type of tank one will see with an Amn'Voss force.
M-75 ArmTech Battle Tank

This is a less common tank used, mainly, in urban scenarios.
BZT-172 ArmTech Urban Warfare Tank

Also, under development there are several Metal Gear-ish machines currently being created. It is estimated that in the next few years these will enter the battlefield.

We use the NDII 'Devastator' Super-Heavy tank in small numbers to engage masses of smaller enemy MBTs

Image
The 'Devastator' is an aptly named, armoured monstrosity designed to challenge any enemy on the battlefield and be the last one standing. Armed with Dual C130G systems, Dual 'Asylum' Ordinance Projectors, a twin-linked 30 mm Autocannon and a roof mounted .50cal 'Knee Capper' machine gun

The Devastator was a huge behemoth dwarfing other MBT systems on the battlefield. It sported two, independently aimed and fired 'Compact 130mm Gun Systems', capable of firing Armour-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot (APFSDS), High-Explosive Anti-Tank Fin-Stabilized (HEAT-FS) or High Explosive FRAGmentation (HE-FRAG) rounds at its Commander's discretion. Thus, the Devastator could be outfitted with a variety of rounds to suit the required mission parameters. A high rate of accurate fire (6 to 8 rounds per minute per gun) was ensured by a reliably functioning autoloader system and convenient arrangement of elevating and traversing 'worm screw' mechanisms to allow for swift and fine tuning of the guns' aim...

It also had two 'Asylum' Ordinance Projectors - missile/rocket pods normally mounted on Heavy Helicopter Gunships - that fired the 'Stabber' Anti-tank/helicopter guided missile. Each missile was based on the highly successful PG29V, an anti-tank rocket intended to defeat most modern tanks fitted with ERA and other active protection systems. The newer, domestically produced 'Stabber' is a 120 mm triple-stack charge, anti-tank guided missile that can be switched to dumb fire in a missile barrage launched from the 'Asylum', or individually launched to engage low flying airborne threats. The 'Asylum' was also capable of housing the smaller 'Spiker' 90 mm unguided rockets in greater amounts than the 'Stabber'. They could be fired in massive volleys to suppress enemy positions and destroy light armour columns.

The Devastator's heavy firepower was only half the reason for its battlefield supremacy however...

...each and every Devastator was equipped with a Three-Tiered Active/Passive Defence, supplemented by many built in survival mechanisms.

Tier One was the 'Deceiver' - an active system designed to disrupt enemy Anti-tank Guided Missiles, be they laser, thermal or even electro-optically guided. The Deceiver contained an aerosol grenade launching system that masked the tank from laser rangefinders and designators as well as the optics of other weapons systems and a modular laser system to 'blind' any missiles that managed to surpass the screen that can also be used to confuse the thermal scanners of other missile systems.

Tier Two was a double layered front-to-back network of housings for advanced ERA tiles. Each tile was a specially placed explosive sandwiched between two ceramic carbide plates - the plates themselves could widthstand standard .50cal and 20 mm autocannon rounds and were highly resistant to 30 mm shots. When hit with a tank gun round however, the explosive would detonate, causing the top plate to slide sideways, forcing the impact of an enemy round to be spread across more armour and in the case of penetrators, may break them in half without damaging the underlying plate, which then serves as an extra layer of armour on top of Tier Three.

Tier Three was the Devastator's own Heavy Duty Hull Armour - consisting of Kevlar lining, ceramic titanium plates sandwiched between top secret armour composition material and a controlled deformation section.

Built in survival mechanisms included NBC protection, automated firefighting systems, hardpoints for frontal dozer blades used for mine clearing and extra armour.The Devastator also contained a complete system redundancy for all vital components and systems...a hit that would otherwise disable the tank would merely slow the lumbering juggernaut down, and give its location to the Devastator's vengeful crew...

This system of heavy weapons and supreme defence allowed the Devastator to take on any number of combatants and still have a high success and kill ratio. It has been documented that one Devastator successfully engaged 3 actively firing M1A1 Abrams heavy tanks used by enemy militants simultaneously, single-handedly and at extremely close quarters - although the crew eventually sacrificed their lives and the tank to critically disable a fourth by ramming it...

GODMODDING IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR EPICICITY!!!!

The Sino 2 series of Main Battle Tanks and their smaller cousins of the Sino 1 Series of Stealth Tanks, including their many mountain, amphibious and future airborne ULTRAGAVIN Sino 1 variants for paratroopers. Arguably among the best tanks for asymmetric, airborne(together with the M113 Gavin, or better, the M135 MacGavin, of course) and amphibious warfare in NS.
