Maybe if it ever got hit but trying to hit one of these things with a gun mounted in a conventional MBT turret would be an extraordinary exercise in futility.
This is a _flying_ suit of armor with ridiculous maneuverability. I'd estimate it as at least 3 Gs instanly vectorable in 3 dimensions.
It'd just fly over a field of tanks and rain massive volleys of armor-piercing missiles on them. The tank guns wouldn't even elevate high enough much less traverse fast enough to hit one. Just forget about tanks, they don't even fight on to the right battlefield.
When they do get hit by things like air-to-air missiles they are relatively fragile. We're still talking HEAT rather than fragmentation warheads though. DR100 is probably about right.
I wouldn't try and write one of these up as gear. It'd have to be an Ally (with Compartmentalized Mind/controls) or maybe even a Patron because it'd be so expensive.
Very high Dex, lots of Enhanced Dodge. This unit does not lumber along like a tank with legs. It flies at blinding speed and with greater agility than even its' elite pilots possess outside of the mecha.
