M145D Rhino

Rhino

The Rhino is a UNSC tank in Halo Wars. No info has yet been released on it but it has been theorized due to the large and heavy nature of its name and the light nature of the Scorpion MBT (Compared to modern battle tanks). It has been theorized it was this tank in the Halo Wars art.

Appearance
The Rhino seems to be a similar looking tank to the Scorpion with several differences. While it has the same double bogie set up for it's tracks, it seems distinctly larger (compared to the warhog in the picture), the gun turret seems very different to that of the scorpion and it's chassis seems to be shorter than bogies (more so than the Scorpion)

Speculation
Due to the possibility of it being a heavy tank, it could carry a high caliber gun, possibly 100-120mm and a machine gun mounted coaxial on the turret, on a cupola (either on the turret or on the hull like the Halo 3 Scorpion), or on the hull. Also due to its larger size and mass it may not be air mobile, at least not by a Pelican but perhaps by an Albatross dropship.
