Talk:Briggs Tank

Tanks in Central
What makes you think Central has tanks? I don't remember tanks being shown in Central except for the ones that the Briggs soldiers brought with them. CorbeauKarasu 23:35, March 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Have not seen the 2009 series yet, but in the first movie at least one is shown assisting in the defense of the city. BrokenSphere  (Talk) 23:30, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

Tanks at the 2nd ½ of the 2003 anime
There are tanks at the 2nd ½ of the 2003 anime, which (if any) real world tank are they modeled after? If someone knows a military expert, ask them, please, OK? --Boris Baran 19:12, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

Huh? Second and a half... what? You mean second half of the series? That's a really odd way of writing that. Was this in the our world or the FMA world? Gotta be more specific if you want an answer. Tommy-Vercetti 21:57, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant in the second half. The tanks were in the FMA world... I just wanted to know the real world tank models the FMA world tanks were modeled after. --Boris Baran 01:42, July 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * I need to look further into this, but in Episode 50 of the 2003 series Hakuro's reinforcements send a group of tanks against Mustang's men in the trench. Which makes it really odd as to why Havoc is using a machine gun against them, unless the armour is thin and can be punctured with machine gun rounds. These particular tanks are somewhat similar to the Renault FT but the gun is definitely larger. Also they are shown from the front. I also need to confirm if the military brought tanks to Ishval the second time around. Does anyone familiar with the manga know if tanks are in there as well? Even if the prior incarnation of the Amestrian tank was not named there is likely enough information to have a Tank article stand on its own instead of redirecting to Briggs Tank.

Let's Go Back
When Ed and Al headed toward Fort Briggs and met Falman, didn't Falman say that the tanks were being created in an area where new weapons are created? If they are new weapons, then they couldn't possibly have been shipped to Central unless Central already had tanks before Briggs. 71.239.231.154

What are you talking about? You seem to be referring to the 2009 series, but in that series, Central didn't have tanks. The tank used on The Promised Day wasn't shipped to Central under normal means; the hiding Briggs soldiers brought it with them. And there was a three-to-six month gap between the time they decided to leave the north and when they emerged in the capital. CorbeauKarasu 14:03, November 20, 2011 (UTC)
