The Tank Hunter is an Elite Class featured in Battlefield 1.[1]
The kit is obtained via a wooden crate found in fixed locations on certain maps, similar to Battle Pickups from Battlefield 4 and Battlefield Hardline.
As the name suggests, the kit is primarily intended to counter enemy armor and other ground vehicles. Equipped with a Tankgewehr M1918, a high-velocity, single-shot rifle, this kit is centered around anti-armor and can critically damage vehicles. The Tank Hunter also carries a Sawed-Off Shotgun, a Trench Periscope, two Anti-Tank Grenades, and a common club.
The Tank Hunter carries light armor, protecting the user from small arms fire (though not to the same degree as the Sentry); and a gas mask.

Trivia
- During the Open Beta, the Tank Hunter was equipped with an "M1911 Silencer". The weapon did not seem to have an attached suppressor, and so did not actually silence the weapon. This was replaced with the Sawed-Off Shotgun by release. The M1911 Silencer remains available only as a DICE developer-exclusive weapon.
