Additional Facts

 * The vehicle releases Flamethrowers upon its destruction much like the Last Stand Defenders eject from destroyed Buildings.
 * The Flamethrower's released by the FAV are equal in Level to the Players Flamethrower.
 * Mortars and Machine Gun Turrets are very weak against the FAV due to its speed.
 * The FAV attacks multiple targets within range at once.
 * The FAV will only use one stream to burn a target even if the target is the only one on the battlefield in range.
 * FAVs use one stream of flames per target (on level 8 they have 4 maximum streams of flames). So when they're facing one target, the FAV shoots one stream of flame, doing its DPS. When there are 2 targets, it will shoot 2 streams of flames each with the DPS given. But if the 2 targets are too close together, they get the splash damage from the other flame too, effectively doubling the damage it receives. So if 4 or more targets are bunched up, all the targets will receive 4 times the DPS of a FAV. That's why the FAV does more DPS to bunched up units than to singled out units. So spread out your units and they will only get the DPS of the FAV once, making the FAV less effective in total.
 * Unlike most units that you target directly where desired, FAV perform more effectively on "strafing" style attack runs. That is to say instead of hitting the target directly, move FAV in a straight line past desired target allowing them to burn it to ashes with some health left, hopefully.
 * The FAV was the first unit to be have the ability to attack whilst on the move.
 * In the game chat the nickname of flame assault vehicle was FAV (as a general name of flame assault vehicle is FAV).
 * The FAV no longer fails to shoot when ordered to directly attack a building. (It could incorrectly appear to shoot on the client, but was not shooting on the server.)
