G.I. Joe Armadillo Tank vs. Serpentor's Air Chariot

An ARMADILLO TANK driven by RALPH ?STEELER? PULASKI heads into a surface-to-air battle with SERPENTOR?S AIR CHARIOT. The G.I. JOE tank is rocked by a missile attack from the COBRA? emperor?s hover vehicle, then Steeler aims the tank?s twin cannons at the flying menace and returns fire!

ARMADILLO TANKS are used by the G.I. JOE team as assault vehicles in close-quarters areas like cities. They are built for speed and maneuverability, when brawn and power are less important than flexible, fast-strike capability. Twin cluster cannons are mounted on a central turret, and the specialized tracks can advance over any surface. The G.I. JOE team first deployed the tanks during the battle at the Arbco Bros. Circus, one of the fronts for the nefarious activities of the CRIMSON GUARD?.

A single-operator hover vehicle, the AIR CHARIOT was created by DR. MINDBENDER? for the COBRA emperor, SERPENTOR. It is armed with twin ?Strike? attack guns and has a cobra-headed design that includes armor-piercing fangs. Small and lightweight, it hovers above the ground and is easy to maneuver, making it a difficult vehicle to target. It?s the ideal vehicle for a military commander like SERPENTOR, who leads troops personally into battle ? it gives him visibility, maneuverability and presence when attacking and overwhelming the G.I JOE team.
