I want the normal tank, not the alien tank. I can see it multiple times during mayhems and other activities, but I cannot get in the tank when I'm doing an activity so I also cannot press N to materialize it. The givechallenger cheat does not work in SR4, how can I get this tank anyway?

I did this on the Xbox earlier today. Does not require cheats, mods, special inputs, or beating the main story.
Start an on-foot Mayhem activity (like the one where you use the black-hole gun).
Stay on the road the activity's start-point is found on and wait for a tank to show up.
Fire a black-hole near it, but not close enough to destroy it, just to deal a bit of damage; just on the edge of the black-hole's suction or blast radius. This will kill the driver and disable the tank.
Once disabled, quit the activity, rush to the tank, hop in, and scan it.
Bam! You now have the Challenger.
NOTE: This may take a couple tries to get it right, but it does work, even if you completed the activity before attempting to get the tank. Took me three tries to get it, since the first time it got blown up by a friend, but we found a Bear APC and tested the trick with that -- it worked flawlessly -- and second time it spawned on the road behind the start-point, so after exiting the activity, it had already disappeared before I could reach it.
