Stealing a parked tank is definitely easier, because you don't have to prepare any equipment for this task.

The first good opportunity to acquire an unused tank comes on the starting island Isla Santuario in the Vencejo region. This is an FND Tank Depot that you visit during the operation Fuel the Revolution, although you can also get there on your own.

You should notice at least 2 parked tanks in the base. It's a good idea to sneak into the location to avoid alerting the enemies too early. There is a hill next to the enemy location, from which you can perform reconnaissance.

Start sneaking towards any of the tanks - Far Cry 6: Tank - how to steal? - FAQ - Far Cry 6 Guide

Start sneaking towards any of the tanks. Once you reach it, climb up to its roof where you will find a hatch. Interacting with it will complete the theft.

Important note - If you alert the enemies near the tank, some of them may jump inside and use it against you. This will force you to take the steps we described below. Try to sneak until you climb onto the tank.

EMP charges (electromagnetic impulses) are very helpful in stealing a tank. You have two main options. The first is to purchase an EMP gadget, such as e.g. the EMP grenades, and take it with you (put them in one of the active slots of your current supremo).

You must purchase El Impulso for 100 units of depleted uranium (this is a rare resource found in enemy locations) and set this Supremo as active.
