The Hatay Mark VIII Tank, was a large tank given by the Sultan of Hatay to the Nazi expedition sent to find the Holy Grail in 1938. It was used for transportation to the Canyon of the Crescent Moon. It possessed a main forward-facing cannon, as well as two smaller cannons on each side of the vehicle.
On the way to the Grail Temple, there was an ensuing fight on the tank. As Indiana Jones was busy fighting Colonel Ernst Vogel on the top of the tank, his father, Henry and Marcus Brody were making their escape. The tank was destroyed shortly after the Hatay driver was indirectly killed by a Nazi soldier knocked unconscious by Brody. With nobody at the controls, the tank drove aimlessly off a nearby cliff, killing everyone aboard except Indiana Jones.
