The '''Korvin Tank''' was built in the early 2300s around the [[large laser]], which had recently been developed by the [[Terran Hegemony]] and copied by the [[Capellan Confederation]]. The penetrating power of the energy weapon was second to none at the time and it gave the Korvin a powerful edge as most [[combat vehicles]]  were ill-prepared for it. The Korvin did not age well; as armor became better and a single blast from its signature weapon was no longer enough to penetrate to the internal structure, the vehicle was victorious less often, so it was relegated to garrison duty. [[Wu Industries]] attempted to bring it back with a new model in [[2430]]. The average design was not able to save the company, which failed in [[2612]].<ref name=TRO:3075/>

The [[fusion engine]] that was needed to power the laser also gave the Korvin an edge, as it was lighter than an [[internal combustion engine]]. It gave the tank enough power to get up to 86 km/h. Eight tons of armor provide reasonable protection for the vehicle.<ref name=TRO:3075/>
