The Dragon Tank is an automated, steam-powered battle wagon that guards the Prison Towers in the Present. It was commissioned by the Chancellor to be the ultimate deterrent against anyone breaking out of the prison. Its wide bulk perfectly blocks the thin bridge connecting the towers to Guardia Castle, making it impossible to escape.
Construction & Weaponry
The Dragon Tank is made of three main pieces: the head, the body, and the wheels. Each has their own function.
Head
The Dragon Tank's head its on the end of a long, flexible neck, where it can easily reach targets. Its primary weapon is its dragon fire, an incendiary device that shoots flaming napalm at enemies. It also repairs the tank so that it may continue fighting a longer time.
Wheels
The wheels on the tank are large and covered with metal teeth, indicating its purpose to roll over uneven terrain, or perhaps obstacles in its path. By charging up the wheels' coils, the tank can charge and run down enemies.
Body
The body of the Dragon Tank houses its main engine. The body also contains a dorsal-mounted missile launcher and an anti-personnel laser weapon.
Destruction
As Crono and Lucca were escaping the prison, they discovered the operator's manual in the warden's office. Using this knowledge of the tank's weaknesses, they did sufficient damage to it before Crono leapt onto its back and thrust his sword into it, causing it to self-destruct.
The Chancellor and two royal guards came out and tried to repair it, but were caught in the explosion that destroyed part of the bridge. They managed to keep from falling by forming a human bridge that spanned the gap. Crono and Lucca simply walked across their backs and continued their escape.
Legacy
Sensing their earlier battle with the Dragon Tank, Lavos took on its properties during the first battle with the heroes.
