The Imperial Medium Tanks were a new standard in Imperial tank design during the Second Europan War.

Information[]

A vast improvement over the previous models of Imperial tanks, over 12,000 units were constructed during the course of EWII. This success can be attributed to the increase in both armor and firepower over the Imperial light tank.

While the design of the Imperial medium tanks sacrificed the mobility of the previous models, this was made up for with a solid balance between armor, firepower, and speed. The medium tank was also easy to adapt and modify, leading to the production of numerous variants across the battlefield and earning it the nickname "Fatherland" by the Imperial soldiers who served alongside it.

Valkyria Chronicles 3: Complete Artworks[]

This newer model of Medium Tank was assigned to Calamity Raven. Borgia's financial support allowed for an upgrade to the engine that provided greater horsepower.

Trivia[]

  • One curious hitbox bug that affects both the Medium Tank and Medium Tank + in Valkyria Chronicles is the "Frontal Radiator" bug. If a unit, approaching the tank diagonally from the front, aims roughly at the rear end of the tank, the game engine will count a shot to that area as a radiator hit (and will display as such on the "to kill" shot counter). However, it is incredibly difficult to exploit this, as there are few weapons with both high-enough accuracy and anti-tank power to reliably hit this "Frontal Radiator" and damage the tank; the ATR-series anti-tank rifle is one of the few weapons that can hit the frontal radiator without any sort of additional accuracy or anti-tank buff. If one is willing to abuse orders, it is also theoretically possible for a lancer using the Concentration order to hit the frontal radiator.
  • Unlike other vehicles in Valkyria Chronicles and Valkyria Chronicles 4, the Imperial Medium Tank's field of interception fire faces backwards rather than forwards. This can cause difficulties for infantry sneaking up for a close-quarters radiator shot, with only lancers and shocktroopers having enough defence and HP to endure the machine gun fire long enough, except when orders are used.
    • In the gameplay of Valkyria Chronicles 3, Medium Tanks lack a rear firing machine gun, making them much safer to attack from the rear. This contradicts official artwork, which depict VC3 medium tanks with the same rear-facing machine gun as in VC1 and VC4.
  • This tank's design is based heavily on the Medium Mark III British interwar tank and Soviet T-28 medium tank, with the differing design features being for artistic purposes rather than being based on other tanks.
  • Despite having only one machine gun (both glossary and in-game), these tanks actually possess at least 3 machine gun barrels, 1 in the rear, 1 in the turret, and one next to the mortar.
  • These tanks fill a similar role as the Shamrock in the fact that they can be either cannon/mortar, machine gun, or flamethrower mounted. The machine gun and flamethrower mounted tanks are uncommon, with the machine gun mounted type in particular only appearing inside Citadel Ghirlandaio during the fight with Selvaria.
  • Most weapons of the Medium Tank+ do very low damage, but they have a very large range. These tanks only appear in Jann's challenge, the Kloden Expert skirmish, and Fouzen Expert skirmish.
  • Curiously, in the Valkyria Chronicles III OVA's opening, Calamity Raven is shown to have at least a dozen medium tanks at their disposal, yet in the anime itself, only two were present.
