Overview[]
Commando Tanks are the last of the Enemy Tanks introduced in the Classic Campaign. They call in other tanks to support it, and can boost. The Commando Tank can be considered an upgrade to the Teal Tank.
Strategy[]
- Treat this Tank like an armoured Teal Tank/Black Tank hybrid.
- It's possible to tell what colour the Tank inside the crate will be before it hits the ground. Use the parachute to gain knowledge of what you'll be up against. (E.g. Brown/White = Brown Tank, Blue/White = Electro Tank, Green/White = Green Tank, Solely White = White Tank, Dark Red/Black = Rocket Defender.)
- The Commando Tank can spawn any type of Enemy Tank except for bosses and other commandos.
- This Tank can boost, so try spamming bullets to trap it so that it can't evade your shots.
- If a crate falls beside you, shoot it right as it lands to instantly kill the tank inside, unless it's armored, in which you need to shoot it multiple times in quick succession.
- Due to Commandos having 100% accuracy it is a viable strategy to rush down a lone commando as because it has perfect accuracy it's bullets will be easy to deflect, however, be sure to watch out for commando tanks at mid range, their high accuracy will kill you fast.
Trivia[]
- Commando Tanks used to be the colour cruise, and would've been a better version of Purple Tanks.
- Commando Tanks used to be introduced on Mission 90.
- Commando Tank as of 8.0+ Now have 100% accuracy (not accounting for velocity).
- Similarly to the peach tanks, commandos were heavily nerfed with large spawn delays due to them dropping very large amounts of tanks.
- The Commando Tank has the least amount of appearances in the classic campaign than any other non-boss tank, appearing just four times.

History[]
0.7.9 Commando tanks were added.
0.7.10 Commando tanks were given a longer delay between plane call-ins. In order to fix a bug, dropped tanks by commandos do not count towards the tank count and therefore will be destroyed when all original tanks are destroyed.
0.7.10 A bug where commando tanks couldn't be unlocked on mission 85 was fixed.
0.7.11 Commando tanks' system of airdropping tanks was reworked, making it more efficient in making planes actually drop tanks instead of just flying over. Therefore, tanks are dropped more often.
0.8.0 Commando tanks have 100% accuracy and now have a cosmetic laser sight.
