Rattlesnake light tank

The Rattlesnake (Tipsprek: Rattelslang), officially the "Rattlesnake" Armored Combat Vehicle (Tipsprek: Panserefjochtreau «Rattelslang») abbreviated as PsF Rattelslang, was a Tiperyn light tank used heavily during the Great Kesh War. Production of the Rattlesnake began in 1943 fielded in airlanding formations as a primary armor asset, the reconnaissance subunits of mainline armored divisions, and Tiperyn's primary export tank pre-war. The Rattlesnake was adapted into the Iguana infantry carrier in 1944 which was Tiperyn's most numerous armored vehicle in service during the war.
