The units listed here are typical of what one will use/encounter. Other Pre-Rain models/derivatives (such as the T-55, T-90, T-14) as well as German Leopards and numerous APC's and support vehicles are in service having been salvaged and refurbished for use by E.B.S.I.S ground forces.
T-72 MBT The standard tank of the E.B.S.I.S. Over 5,000 of these are in service, a combination of new production and Pre-Rain models from numerous locations across Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa. A modernized gun and improved armor make this equivalent to the default 'Tank' from the Robotech main book

T-80 MBT The second most common Soviet tank. Similar in outward appearance to a T-72, the T-80 series is much more difficult to produce due to advanced mechanical and firing systems. As a result, most T-80's are refurbished Pre-Rain models with approximately 3,000 in service. For game purposes, the primary difference is the increased armor protection, decreased operational range, and the main gun which is capable of firing short range missiles.

ZSU-23-4 Anti-Aircraft Tank (Zenitnaya Samokhodnaya Ustanovka (Russian: Зенитная Самоходная Установка) With only about 3 dozen 'acquired' Raider X mecha in their arsenal, E.B.S.I.S. commanders needed to find a way to counter superior RDF air capabilities. To do this they turned to the ZSU-23-4 tank. While not as effective as a Raider X, the 4 barreled auto cannon mounted on the turret combined w/ improved radar guidance allows this vehicle to destroy Zentraedi mecha and can severely damage a Veritech fighter. It's major drawback is that it's relatively lightly armored, able to be damaged by conventional weapons and slow speed. ZSU-23-4's are usually assigned as multi-unit batteries (occasionally w/ a Raider X as a command vehicle) and should not be taken lightly.Only about 500 are currently in active service although large numbers have been located in North Africa and an operation in the South American region formerly known as Peru has uncovered several dozen. All are currently being refurbished for service.

BM-30 Medium Range Multiple Rocket Launcher (Russian: Смерч, "whirlwind") No Spartans have fallen into the hands of the Soviet Military so they had to (re)develop their own missile systems. Long range weaponry being beyond their capabilities at this point, the BM-30 is capable of firing 12 medium range missiles from it's launch tubes before needing to be reloaded. This provides much needed artillery support to E.B.S.I.S. forces engaged in heavy combat. Only about 150 of these are in service presently.
