That, coupled with a top speed probably double what the Vannie can do, will easily set it apart.

Meh, still not enough, somewhat better AA and more speed? Thats not enough, could do that with a MBT upgrade or somethin. If the tank was much smaller then yeah, speed an size and then if the weapons were unique to the lightning, that could do it. But if its dam near the same size and its just a little beefier gun and speed are the only difference then meh, that seems like a waste of resources when you already let MBT's be solo tanks.
Dont get me wrong, I love variety but only if its actual variety and not just cosmetic stuff with minor differences like you get in many of the modern "brown" shooters. I vote putting MBT's back to forced multiple crews and let the rambo players have the lightning. Then it definitely has a niche.
