So a few days ago i asked about killing a Sectopod with no strong weapons against it (im happy to report that I managed to take it down but not with AP rifles, the thing that took it down was a Incendiary rocket from a launcher which my heavy weapons soldier found in a hangar store room thing, quite lucky) so i wanted to prepare for future situations so i built a laser tank because i heard that the Sectopods dont like laser cannons.
After this a thought went through my head "why not use this in a mission" so i tried to equip it on to a Dragonfly but it didn't show up. "Ok maybe i need a Skymarshall or another ship type" so i got Skymarshall but still no luck.
So i ask, does anybody know how to bring this in to a fight, do i need a tech or something?

HWPs are equipped on Basic AI Units like soldier Armour.

Hi. I've been searching for some time but could not find it. Is there a "basic ai units" menu somewhere? I'm completely lost and I would love to bring a few tanks into some fights. Could someone please post a screen shot or something? How do I load a tank into a ship?! :(
-
Menu? No...you just buy a "Basic AI unit" the same way you buy agents. The ai unit is then listed under its name (something like Athena, Skynet etc.) in the soldier screen, where you can equip it with different armors, just like you do with soldiers (provided you researched and manufactured them). You can take them onto missions just like you do with soldiers.
What are you having trouble with?

Yes! Finally I got it. So the "Tank" is actually armour for the basic ai unit? Weird but I think I get it. :P
Many many thanks :)
