>the Magella Attack, the stupid fucking tank with a turret that can't traverse horizontally and is a vtol.
To be fair it's a setting:
- where long range detection/missile isn't possible anymore (magic particles jam everything, even visual spectrum)
- where 18m tall mecha are considered a valid weapon

I can imagine the reasoning behind the magella attack:
- it's a tank-hunter (very big gun),
- if you obtain information about the enemies tank, you keep the lower frame hidden and take off,
- enemy tanks can't hit you with their big guns with no elevation,
- you can destroy the tank using your big gun then go back,
- it can also be used to support troops, artillery strike from any direction

It's basically an Attack-copter that don't operate from a base, and has a huge gun because missiles can't be guided anymore unless wired
