The MBT-6 Predator is GDI's Tier 1 tank appearing in Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. It's the basic workhorse of the faction, with a decent lifespan and a powerful primary weapon (the 150mm cannon) which can be upgraded with a railgun from the tech center.
As most other vehicles, it can be shuttled across the battlefield by V-35 Oxen.

[edit] Assessment
"You will find the Predator most effective against enemy armor and structures."
- EVA talking about the Tank
Predator's good points:
- Probably the best tier 1 vehicle in the war.
- Superior firepower and protection to it's rivals.
- Available at a relatively low tech level.
- Has the extremely powerful railgun upgrade.
- Can be carried by V-35s
Predator's bad points:
- Useless against infantry (though this can be slightly offset with the railgun upgrade) and vulnerable to anti-tank infantry.
- Very expensive for a tier 1 vehicle but cheaper than Titans.
- Relatively slow.
- Cannot attack air units.
[edit] Development
Originally, the Predator was to be outfitted with a rocket pod, similiar to the ones on the Mammoth 27. For reasons unknown (balance probably) this feature was removed.
