Favourite military vehicle design in a game?

I always liked the many variations of the huge double barreled Mammoth tanks throughout the Command and Conquer series.
 
Whilst I'm partial to a Metal Gear Rex or Metal Gear Ray, this one is by far the GOAT...

I think Dog rips out a strider's "brain" in ep 2.

HOLY SHIT! THAT WAS BRUTAL

I miss this so much (ಥ‸ಥ)

But to add to the thread - Mad Cat/ Timber Wolf from Battletech. Ever since MW2 I have mad respect for it.

Just look at it.


ed: I love uuu

The Timberwolf (Madcat) from the Mechwarrior/Battletech universe has been a person favorite of mine since Mechassault.

I love Metal Gear Solid Rex's utilitarian design. Like most Military hardware, it's almost not trying to look cool. It mostly looks cool, because it is cool.
Rex's design is just beautiful. I'm glad that Sahelanthropus referenced it in its non-anthropoid form.

Reminds me of the mechs in Code Geas. Is it ZoE?
 
I enjoy mech designs in games and a special place will always be in my heart for the first ever PC game I played, Earthsiege 2, and Its HERCs (Humaniform-Emulation Roboticized Combat Unit with Leg-Articulated Navigation).


The learning curve they applied when you are forced to use that aircraft for a few missions was immensely frustrating.

The Homeworld 2 ship designs are awesome. While not Originally a Homeworld game, Deserts of Kharak manages to keep the overall feel of the series with it's designs. The land-based carrier is great:

The other units look pretty cool as well:
