Otherwise known as a Missile Vet, the '''Anti-Air Veteran''' wields powerful missiles that can bring down enemy air units in no time. However, the missiles cannot target-lock at low altitudes, and [[Fighter (Battalion Wars)|Fighters]] can easily execute a barrel roll to dodge them, making them wildly ineffective against all but the closest enemy ground units. As a foot soldier, the Missile Vet is also susceptible to [[Gunship]] and [[Bomber (Battalion Wars)|Bomber]] attack. | |||
