The T70 Mamaduri was a Tennaiite main battle tank of the Royal Tennaiite Army. It was built by the Akula Corporation as replacement for the earlier T53. It incorporated several advanced and unique features such as siliceous-cored armor, a hydropneumatic suspension, a 120mm smoothbore tank gun, and a laser rangefinder. It was followed by the more advanced Sundarji which eventually replaced it.
