WARDOGS Vehicles: Every Helicopter, Tank and Transport

🚁 VehiclesUpdated 10 Sep 2026

A full rundown of WARDOGS vehicles, choppers, tanks, artillery and transport, what each one is for and when to bring it.

WARDOGS brings around 21 vehicles to Early Access, spread across helicopters, armour, artillery and ground transport. Vehicles win fights and move squads, but they are expensive to replace, so match the machine to the job.

Helicopters (Pilot track)

  • MH-6 Little Bird — light and fast, built for rapid transport. Gunship variants add miniguns for close support.
  • UH-1Y and Z20 Lakota — troop transports for moving a squad to the Zone in one drop.
  • HAVOC — the heavy attack helicopter, the top of the gunship range and priced to match.

Tanks and anti-air (Driver track)

  • L2A6 — the main battle tank and the anchor of any armoured push.
  • Flakpanzer Gepard — mobile anti-air, the answer to enemy helicopters.

Artillery

  • SPH-2 — self-propelled artillery for standoff damage against fortified positions and enemy FOBs. A late unlock tied to your overall Wardog Level.

Ground transport (Driver track)

  • Humvee — the workhorse, in plain, M249 and minigun variants.
  • Ural truck family, including a Defender variant, for moving people and kit.
  • Bobcat and Kodiak for utility and logistics.
  • Dune Buggy — cheap, fast, and perfect for a quick dash to the Zone.

When to bring what

  1. Getting to the Zone: a Dune Buggy or Humvee. Cheap and quick.
  2. Moving the squad: a transport helicopter or a Ural.
  3. Breaking a defence: the L2A6, or a gunship if they have no anti-air.
  4. They are flying: bring the Gepard and clear the sky.
