-It was introduced in [[Update "La Royale"]]. The tank is nearly identical to the [[Magach 6R]] , except with a lack of ERA and the addition of [[Hydra-70 M247|Hydra-70 Rocket Pods]] to the turret, which traverse with the main armament. The Magach Hydra has an above average mobility and very mediocre protection against both APDS and HEAT projectiles, specially due to the lack of ERA. It should be played aggressively using its rockets, since they have very poor precision at long ranges.
