Tanks, Artillery & Combat (7)

Soldiers dragging a wounded comrade to cover as a camouflaged tank advances down a muddy street in WARDOGS — Armor moves the line — but every vehicle lost is cash out of someone's persistent wallet.

Two tanks, one artillery platform and four combat vehicles complete the heavy catalogue. Artillery deserves special mention: indirect fire ties directly into the tower and zone fight, and the community already runs artillery calculators for it. Treat heavy assets as team purchases — a tank without infantry support is a donation to the enemy's economy.

Air Transport (2)

Two helicopter classes handle the fastest squad delivery in the game. Piloting is a genuine skill with real payoff — see the helicopter guide for controls, landing technique and the transport business model. At the top end, the MI-28 Havoc is the max-level attack helicopter.

How to Buy Vehicles Without Going Broke

First-person view inside a dark armored vehicle interior with crew stations, compass and money HUD in WARDOGS — Crew stations matter: check seats, fuel and resupply before you drive off.

Match the vehicle to the job. A $500 Bobcat solves "get me to the zone." A $6,750 Ural Defender solves "move a rifle squad with suppressive fire." Buy for the job you actually have.
Check the ammo and fuel. Vehicle ammunition is its own logistics — an infantry inventory doesn't feed a tank. Know the resupply route before you drive off.
Don't solo team assets. Taking the squad's Humvee to shorten your walk is how friendships end and wallets empty.
Protect the return. A vehicle that completes a loop and comes back is an asset; one that dies on the objective is a cost. Orient it toward the exit.

Driver XP note: land vehicle unlocks run on the Driver track with both level gates and cash unlock costs — e.g. the Humvee needs Driver level 15 and a $25,000 unlock. Driving your squad around is the cheapest Driver XP there is.
