Since the Lightning is a single person tank, I actually do see a likelyhood of an AV MAX taking out a Lightning in a one on one fight. As a matter of game balance I think the Lightning will be pretty lightly armored. It is ment as an escort vehicle after all.
It's the Prowler, Magrider and Vanguard that said AV MAX will have to truly be wary of.
That said, I really do not see many one on one battles occuring in this game. And I think it's pretty pointless for people to keep using examples in the context of a one on one fight. I believe that the first thing people will do in this game when they log in (if they are not affiliated with an outfit) will be to set their flag to looking for squad and tail around with a group until they invite the player in. I know I personally will not want none affiliated lone wolf players taggin along with any squad I'm a part of, they be detrimental to my squad's BEP and likely will cause TKs.
