Hive Tactical Vehicle
American tactical vehicle that releases an autonomous drone and can switch to EMCON to avoid armour, artillery and naval attacks.
🎁 Event📊 A · 1–12🌍 Standard
The Hive Tactical Vehicle is the first playable wheeled-vehicle armoured elite unit, tied to the United States and recruited from a level 2 factory. It is built around three skills available from level 1: an anti-infantry heavy machine gun, a drone deployment whose drone acts on the turn it appears, and the EMCON state that keeps it from being targeted by armour, artillery and naval units for one turn. NamuWiki adds that the drone inherits the assigned general's air-force skill and rank, and that its self-destruct deals defence-ignoring damage to every hex adjacent to it. The stats shown come from game files extracted in April 2026; the newer Fandom wiki table lists higher values (see FAQ).

❓ Frequently asked questions
Are Honeycomb and Hive Tactical Vehicle the same unit?
Yes. The Korean name 벌집 translates as either "hive" or "honeycomb"; the official English name is Hive Tactical Vehicle. This page keeps its old address so existing links keep working.
How do you unlock the Hive Tactical Vehicle?
With 30 fragments, like every elite unit. It is then recruited from a level 2 factory and, according to Fandom, only once per match. Upgrades cost industry and technology up to level 9, then Honor Armor Badges at levels 10 to 12.
Why do the stats differ from the Fandom wiki?
The values shown here come from game files extracted in April 2026 (53 / 11 / 255 HP at level 1). The Fandom table, written later from the upgrade screen, lists 59 / 23 / 345 HP at level 1 and 98 / 45 / 555 HP at level 12. The gap may come from a rebalance since April; an in-game check will settle it. The same gap exists for several other units on this wiki.
What exactly does the drone do?
It appears within 1 tile (2 tiles from level 9), can move and attack on the same turn, acts on its own and attacks only once per turn. It lasts 1 turn, then 2 turns from level 5. NamuWiki says it inherits the assigned general's air-force skill and rank, and that its self-destruct hits every adjacent tile while ignoring defence.
Does EMCON make the unit invulnerable?
No. For one turn, armour, artillery and naval units cannot actively attack it, but infantry and aircraft still can. Up to level 8, attacking ends EMCON; from level 9 the state persists after an attack.
Which generals fit best?
Fandom names trained Auchinleck (the drones spread his Fatigue effect), trained Tito, Eisenhower and Wu.R. NamuWiki adds Weygand and limits trained Auchinleck to defence events. These are community recommendations; no numeric test ranks them yet.
