Lophius

Lophius was an unusual and powerful tank used by Heinrich Belgar in Valkyria Chronicles 4.
== Profile ==
An amphibious tank contained within X-0's massive submarine. Named after an anglerfish. Designed as a last line of defense, it's reinforced with anti-blast armour thick enough to withstand a Valkyrian Bomb, for safe observation of the blast from within.Though only for short periods of time, its design allows for total submersion. Belgar exploited this to sneak onboard the Centurion unnoticed.
== Description ==
Lophius was a large and ungainly submersible running on four sets of tank treads and two augers, boasting incredible firepower and nigh-invulnerable protection, as well as the ability to transport infantry.
While effectively a mobile fortress, Lophius had an Achilles' heel in the form of heat build-up while submerged, requiring it to deploy its vulnerable radiators after surfacing. It also lacked the ability to punch through thick ice while surfacing, limiting its ability to move around the ice field where the final battle took place.
