The M51 Medium Tank (unofficially known as Super Theimer) was a Gallian tank tank that first saw use during the War of Lorican Aggression. It was a more heavily upgraded variant of the Theimer tank. It was armed with a 105mm High Velocity gun and was very effective when it took on Lorican tanks such as the M52s. It however only saw service with the Commonwealth nations and was never given out to its allies. It saw extensive use in the Middle East Theater of the War.
