	The original M10 deployed to numerous sandbox servers during the Second Summer War. The M10 was used in fire support, direct assault of fortified positions, and limited reconnaissance. Early M10s were plagued with issues involving the gun turret being powered by wire thrusters as it did not provide the fine control needed to engage targets. The gun also lacked any form of pitch control. Later in the summer war the M10 was given EZ Tank Turret control. This later variant of the M10 was speculated to have been fielded during [[Operation Dragon Strike]].		The original M10 deployed to numerous sandbox servers during the Second Summer War.

	The '''M10 Defender''', is a [[Tank Generations\|second generation]] main battle tank employed by the [[AEF]] introduced on July ~~22nd~~ 2015. With the [[Assault Expeditionary Force\|RFAI's]] deactivation of their previous [[Tzar T12\|T12]] series of armored vehicles earlier that year, the M10 became the RFAI's primary main battle tank during wars with [[Andy and Bryan's Militia Corps\|ABMC]], and [[New Germania]]. Countless M10s have been spawned by the RFAI and AEF. Though originally built in 2015, a retrofit was performed in 2019 updating their standard to the M10A2.

	The first combat usage of the M10 was with the RFAI during the 2015 [[Summer Wars\|Second Summer War]] where it saw service designated as the "Defender MBT." It was effectively used in combat against ABMC armor such as the [[Warrior Mk. 1]]. In 2016 the RFAI once again used the M10 during the New Germania War, equipped with upgrades such as [[EZ Tank Turret]] enabling a mouse aimed turret and main cannon, also making it the first non-ACF tank to employ such a method within the meta. The AEF retired the M10 after the New Germanian War, but was later slated for upgrades seeing the need for a primary wiremod vehicle in 2019. M10-series vehicles continued in service with the AEF until its dissolution in 2020. In frontline use the M10 was ~~superceded~~ by the [[M3 Blitzer]].

	Using a two man crew was proving to be ineffective and following Omegatrion's new research with the [[M175 Guardian]] proving that E2 control was more effective led to the adoption of Ez Tank Turret however the gun was still limited to rotating on the x-axis, [[Strayed]] resolved this by adding a pivoting system and a center of gravity (bathtub prop) to trick the ACF E2 into believing it was an ACF gun.

The AEF retired the M10 after the New Germanian War, but was later slated for upgrades seeing the need for a primary wiremod vehicle in 2019. M10-series vehicles continue in service with AEF, but have been highly modified and had their firepower, mobility and protection upgraded to increase their combat effectiveness on the modern battlefield and are now designated M10A2.

	The '''M10 Defender''', is a ~~[[wiremod~~ second generation]] main battle tank employed by the [[AEF]] introduced on July 22nd 2015. With the [[Assault Expeditionary Force\|RFAI's]] deactivation of their previous [[Tzar T12\|T12]] series of armored vehicles earlier that year, the M10 became the RFAI's primary main battle tank during the wars with [[Andy and Bryan's Militia Corps\|ABMC]], and [[New Germania]]. Countless M10s have been spawned by the RFAI and AEF. Production ended in 2016, but older models were converted to the M10A2 variant in 2019.

	The first combat usage of the M10 was with the RFAI during the 2015 [[Summer Wars\|Second Summer War]] where it saw service under the "Defender MBT" designation, performing well in combat against ABMC armor. such as the [[Warrior Mk. 1]]. In 2016 the RFAI once again used the M10 during the New Germania War, equipped with upgrades such as EZ Tank Turret enabling mouse aimed combat, also making it the first non-ACF tank to employ such a method within the meta. The AEF retired the M10 after the New Germanian War, but was later slated for upgrades seeing the need for a primary wiremod vehicle in 2019. M10-series vehicles continue in service with AEF, but have been highly modified and had their firepower, mobility and protection upgraded to increase their combat effectiveness on the modern battlefield and are now designated M10A2.
