The pinnacle of Soviet armour superiority, the Apocalypse Superheavy Tank is a massive doomsday machine on tracks, one that requires an army to take down. Like it's legendary predecessor, the Mammoth Tank, the Apocalypse mounted a pair of 120mm cannons that can blast through vehicles and structures alike, and Mammoth Tusk SAMs to swat aircrafts out of the sky. The new generation model has been drastically redesigned, being a more modern state-of-the-art machine that still retains it's existing purpose as a heavy duty assault unit. Its nearly twice the size of the previous model and is a whole lot heavier, heavy enough to crush smaller vehicles under it's weight. Its also armed to the teeth: a pair of 152mm cannons that can annihilate vehicles and structures easily, supplemented by Shmel incendiary rockets for additional firepower and anti-infantry capability, and the ever reliable Mammoth Tusk SAMs for anti-air duty. This effectively makes the new Apocalypse an all-purpose assaulter, capable of withstanding obscene amounts of damage and practically able to destroy nearly everything. That goes without saying its still flawed though. Its immense size and weight makes it extremely cumbersome, making it easy prey for faster, nimble enemies. It's Mammoth Tusk SAMs are also most effective against slow aircrafts such as helicopters but not fightercrafts, which can easily outrun it's targeting radar and the missiles. This naturally leaves it extremely vulnerable to airstrikes, it's slow speed making it impossible to escape from ground attackers and bombers.
