Well, most First World armor today are designed to nuclear and chem warfare.
While they use outside air, it has to pass through a filtration system and
the internal pressure is higher then that outside. The land raider cutaway
poster that was in a recent White Dwarf also shows Nuclear/Bio/Chemical
filter systems on the hull.

That said, such shielding and filtration is never 100% and certainly depends
on your distance from the "event". I'd be of a mind to see rad bombs have a
chance to take out armor vehicles and their passengers (this is one of the
things a neutron bomb was to do), but they'd certainly be more survivable
then a trooper running around in only his fatigues. But then that'd be
modification to the existing rules.

lets not fall on GW's poor attempt to put some silly rule like all tanks are
sealed air tight and inpurveus to out side air, just to make it worth wild
to buy there dumb Rhino model. How would one breath if seald thight, plus if
they are seald air thight way can't they move under water? Wow so if I take
cheap rihnos I'll have submarines also? No more charging for bridges for me
I'll just move through the water at half rate or full? Is water rough
terrain or regular?
