I am not 100% keen on Blood Angels and Sisters of battle. But for some reason, if a fast attack choice is a vehicle tank it moves up to 12 inches and is considered combat speed and can fire its bale flamer predator and immolators full ballistic skill without snap shotting.

Is that right? I thought combat speed was 6" for all tanks regardless of fast attack choice. Then cruising speed beyond 6" and up to 12".

You are correct that combat speed is 6" for all tanks regardless of fast attack choice. Then cruising speed beyond 6" and up to 12"

Being a Fast Attack choice does not matter at all.

However:

Blood Angel vehicles are usually Fast vehicles.

Check the Fast vehicles rules. Vehicles Chapter, Fast vehicles section.

This outlines how Fast Vehicles work.
