The real horse was called a tank? Interesting that the Umamusume version focused on the "glass legs" part of the horse's history then, though maybe that made more sense lol.

Not just tank but HEAVY TANK (e.g. Tigers, KVs, Churchills).

Could be a ironic nickname.
Word goes that he was named Heavy Tank for his running gait that emphasizes a "low center of weight" with a heavy plodding stride resembling a tank's treads in motion. ("Digging into the ground cyclically", as they call it.)
IMHO heavy tanks usually having problems with their transmissions makes the nickname doubly apt, though this probably wasn't the intention.
