However, they were destroyed by Aang and La, the Ocean Spirit, who worked as one to annihilate the entire Fire Nation naval fleet. These tanks were also used in the Siege of the North, where several of them employed ballistae to destroy the walls of the Northern Water Tribe. However, before they could proceed to destroy the temple, Sokka and the mechanist ignited a natural gas pocket in a nearby crevice, causing a huge explosion that destroyed the tanks, along with much of the mountain, and forced the Fire Nation to retreat. Tundra tanks used during the Siege of the North were modified with a ballista.ĭuring the battle, these tanks easily overwhelmed the temple defenses and advanced to the temple virtually unimpeded. When Aang and his group arrived and forced the mechanist to break his deal with Qin, the War Minister launched an assault on the temple, which resulted in a battle between the temple's inhabitants and the Fire Nation forces under War Minister Qin's command. The mechanist only agreed to help Qin design such vehicles in exchange for the safety of his people, who took refuge in the abandoned Northern Air Temple following the flooding of their native village. This was evidenced by the fact that tank wheels were present in the Northern Air Temple sanctuary, which was converted by the mechanist into a workshop where he also kept an early prototype of the war balloon. They were likely designed by War Minister Qin and his unwilling accomplice, the mechanist. The tundra tanks' first known use was during the battle for the Northern Air Temple.
