It is a tank. A tank, according to the dictionary, is "a heavy armored fighting vehicle carrying guns and moving on a continuous articulated metal track."

The firedrake AND tempest both have guns, heavy armor, and they move on a metal track. Additionally, a firedrake can be called a "Flame tank" like the Sherman with a flamethrower, and a Tempest can be called a Flakpanzer, much like those used in WW2 and afterwards in Germany.

Also, I believe the game designates them as tanks ;]
