For a tank right click in your 2d view and go to static --->Vehicle and find the 1 you want from there.

As for loading in prefabs im assuming the file you got is a .pfb file as they are the prefab files. To load this into the map simply create a folder in your MOHTools directory titled prefab, then go to edit --->preferences and at the bottom is a spot where you can tell Radiant to pint at the prefab folder. Then all you simply need to do is go to file ---> load prefab and your prefab shall appear in a list, select the prefab you want and load into map.

ps, forgot to mention this but you have to put your .pfb file in the newly made prefab folder too (obviously) :P

One way to import items from another map is to get into the map that has the item you want, highlight it then go to file/open/yourmap, when you do this it will come up with a box asking you if you want to copy selected item and you say yes.

It open your map with the item you highlighted from another map :D
