I don't think you can really say its any particular tank, It has combat systems like a modern tank but far more tough and rugged and can be manufactured quickly in huge quantities. The size and speed is questionable to say the least, I certainly believe they are faster and smaller than what Forge World states in their books. I seriously doubt (although I will freely admit I have no experience of this) that any single modern tank could survive a maneuver war in a desert and then immediately be dumped into a vicious trench war, then travel across a frozen tundra with no modifications without it falling apart.
