The Comet Tank is unlocked via Hammer Specialization. An improvement of the Cromwell tank, the Comet has thicker armor, a much more powerful main gun, and retains all of the original vehicle's speed and agility. The 77mm High Velocity Gun is perfect for engaging and chasing enemy targets- both tanks and infantry are prime targets, although it it still more effective verses vehicles. With it's formidable armor and speed it is possible to break through the enemy lines, destroy the target and then safely retreat.

  • The Comet tank, or Tank, Cruiser, Comet I (A34) was a British cruiser tank that first saw use near the end of the Second World War. It was designed as in improvement on the earlier Cromwell tank, mounting the new 77mm HV gun in a new lower profile and part-cast turret. This gun was effective against late war German tanks, including the Panther and, at most ranges, the Tiger. The tank was widely respected as one of the best British tanks of the war, and continued in service afterwards.
  • The Tank, Cruiser, Comet I (A34) was a British cruiser tank that first saw use near the end of World War II. It was designed to provide greater anti-tank capability to Cromwell tank squadrons. It was armed with the 77mm HV which was effective against late war German tanks and a superior weapon to the 75mm gun of the Panther when firing APDS rounds. As a development of the Cromwell, it was an interim design before the Centurion tank.
