Quotes
"Introducing the Growler, an agile and durable Unique tank with powerful base-cracking capabilities. After taking a single hit in battle, the Growler "armors up" and takes significantly less damage for a short duration. Its spiked front end allows it to completely destroy walls by running over them, and its powerful short-range cannon is great for softening tough base targets."

- Rampage - Shadow Ops Campaign

"An agile and durable Unique tank. Features an "armor up" mode that reduces damage, drones that target Power Plants, and the ability to demolish walls by running over them. Fantastic base-cracker! (Cannot be used as a base defender)"

- In-Game Description

"RIPPED TO SHREDS - Its bite is much, much worse than its bark, Commander."
