What do you guys use or think of as Cobras main battle tank?
A lot of people would probably say the HISS tank. I love the HISS, it's an awesome and very iconic Cobra tank, but see it more as a an infantry support vehicle. I've been thinking of using the Fury/Rage tank, although it seems a bit light. But Cobra vehicles are generally lighter and suited for fast attacks, so it would probably fit well. The alternative would probably be to build some kind of custom vehicle. |

Te Hiss Tank Mk 2 looks appropriate. Well armored, good weapons and can carry troops.

It does have a more bulky look, and it definitely has a lot more firepower? Do the modern figures fit in it?
I also really like the 2005 HISS, but i'd have to switch those missile launchers with a gun instead. |

I use the modern 2011-present Hiss Tanks versions, like the Retaliation ones or the 30th and POC hisstanks.
The Cobra Rage or Fury will work. There's a bunch of cool stuff like the Parasyte. (might be a bit too apc like) Maybe something like this for anti-tank? https://www.yojoe.com/sgtsavage/panther.shtml |

I guess the Retaliation HISS is cobra's main battle tank for now. Although it looks too light compared to an Abrams or Challenger or Leopard Tank.

I'd say Cobra doesn't have an MBT by design; it's not really in their strategy of hit-and-fade tactics. The HISS II probably is their heaviest hitter and even that is more of an IFV.
I love the Retaliation HISS (I've got a half-dozen of 'em), but I think in "real life" you'd need two or three of any HISS to go up against one Mauler (assuming the Mauler really is an Abrams equivalent, and not a light tank like a Sheridan). That's where the Rattler comes in for Cobra. |

My first response is the HISS, but to fit your criteria I would say the Crimson Attack Tank.
