Tank Destroyers are Tanks developed specifically to destroy other tanks.
Contents
Construction
Tank Destroyers are commonly constructed with thicker armor than other tanks. The Destroyer Tank Hunter has much thinker armor than the Leman Russ it was based off of, and the Hammerhead has much thicker armor than the Devilfish it was based off of. Their weapons are also commonly more powerful than the base vehicle, as is the case with the Land Raider Terminus. ...
Employment
Tank Destroyers are either used to ambush enemy tanks, as is the case with Tau Piranhas when armed with fusion blasters, or used to annihilate enemy vehicles from afar, as is the case with the Eldar Fire Prism.
