Is this new? Or have I been lucky?

I was wandering around and decided to take a Prototype Tank. It did some kind of ‘blast’ like a Reaper, did a lot of damage to me. I’ve never had any tank, except Reaper, do a ‘blast’. Is this new, or have I just been lucky for years?

Prototype tanks are more likely to do a ‘concussive blast’ which is similar to the Reaper’s Thermobaric blast when you get close because some don’t have gas dispensers. The other classes of tanks rarely do the concussive blasts as the gas attack is more suited to keeping enemies away longer!

Apocalypse tanks do a thermal blasr which I noticed a couple of months ago, I think.

Apocalypse tanks do what @alexsthlm said, small thermal blast.

FNIX Tanks do Gas attacks. But Proto, Mil and FNIX can do both types of attacks as of an update last year, as long as they get the ability that is.

Aren’t their abilities listed in the blueprints?
I once made this list, but I don’t know my source anymore. At least it was before release of the firebirds…
