The Buggy is the standard rapid attack and reconnaissance vehicle of the Task Force Talon during the Oil Crisis and the Day of the Consortium.^[1]

OverviewEdit

Equipped with a 12.7mm machine gun and 20mm grenade launcher, this unit is excellent for scouting or fast hit-and-run tactics. The Buggy can only carry two soldiers, but it has a good vision range and stealth detection capabilities. Each passenger the Buggy carries also gives it a 25% damage boost.

The Buggy can also be upgraded with light Stinger missiles, making it an already cheap yet powerful AA vehicle.

UpgradesEdit

Light Stinger launcher Adds anti-air capability to the Buggy causing 100 damage against helicopters and aircraft with a cooldown of 4 seconds.
