One of the N.E.A.D. members brought a Mako equipped Panther G to our battleday Sunday and tried it out.
We found a major disadvantage with the system, the tank won't move while the hit indicator is flashing.
Once that was realized all you had to do was get close enough to see the flasher and fire everytime the flashing stopped.
He was unable to move from the spot he took the initial hit, died in place.
Needless to say he switched back to his Sherman rather quickly.
