As expected, Tanks tend to be slow and lumbering due to its excessive size, but the vehicle is regarded as special in the games due to its extraordinary strength and durability, its ability to ''run over'' smaller vehicles (inflicting large amounts of damage and typically resulting in them exploding), as well as possessing a [[Rocket Launcher|rocket launcher]]-like turret capable of firing explosive rounds at any direction; the turret, however, has limited shots when the player uses it in GTA 1 and GTA 2. Tanks in GTA Advance are also capable of maintaining their speed while traveling off-road, something most road vehicles are not able to do. Tanks are only weak against explosive weapons (rocket launcher, [[grenades]], or another Tank's turret) in GTA 1 and GTA 2, and [[Molotov Cocktail|Molotov cocktail]]s in GTA 2 and GTA Advance. Tanks can also be destroyed in GTA 2 by setting up a car to explode near it with dynamite.

When used against the player in GTA 2, the Tank proves to be extremely deadly due to its tendency to open fire at the player using the turret; the vehicle will also be used to good effect in military road blocks to halt the player's advance while firing at the player. When one is in the hands of the player in any game, however, the player can inflict substantial amounts of damage and rake up a [[Money|large numbers of points]] in the process. The Tank is less effective against tank blockades in GTA 2 because it's a very easy target for other tanks, whose cannons will make short work of it. Like other law enforcement vehicles in GTA 2 road blocks, a Tank cannot be stolen there.
