Mauler

This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.
Added to the arsenal in 1985, the Mauler MBT (Manned Battle Tank) was created to be the Joe team's mass-production main battle tank (in contrast to the MOBAT, which in the early G. I. Joe comics was treated as a one-of-a-kind unit). The primary operator is Heavy Metal (G1).

Trivia
Among G. I. Joe fans, there appears to be at least some degree of disagreement as to whether or not the Mauler is an original design, a derivative of the M1 Abrams main battle tank, or a derivative of another main battle tank. This speculation is fueled in part because of the fact that many early Joe vehicles; such as the Dragonfly, Skystriker, and Tomahawk; were indeed derived from real-life military hardware.
