MOBAT

First introduced in 1982, the MOBAT is the G. I. Joe team's original main battle tank. Its considerable firepower is supplemented by an advanced electronics suite, making it a major threat to Cobra's ground forces. The primary operator is Steeler, but other Joes have served as MOBAT operators over the years.

Notes

[edit]
  • The MOBAT, like many G. I. Joe vehicles, is based on a real-life military vehicle. In this case, the inspiration was most likely the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}M60 Patton|{{#if:||M60 Patton}}]], the standard main battle tank in service with the American military at the time.
