[[File:IG5EManticore.jpg|200px|right|thumb|A '''Manticore''' unleashing its payload<sup>2</sup>]]
The '''Manticore (Missile Tank)''' is a mobile missile launcher platform that can provide air defense with radar guided missiles and fire unguided rockets in an artillery role. Massed numbers of rocket armed Manticores can deliver a greater amount of bombardment fire than a larger group of Basilisks in a shorter amount of time, although the reload time is much longer.
