Trivia

 * The projectile fired by the Juggernaut upgrade is even bigger than a Dart Monkey in Bloons TD 5.
 * The Juggernaut has both camo and lead detection, making it a good choice for round 59.
 * In older versions of Bloons Tower Defense 5 Mobile, the ball could only pop one Lead Bloon, due to the shortened description of the upgrade.
 * The artwork of the Juggernaut shows the monkey sitting on top of the spiked ball.
 * With the Splodey Darts upgrade in Bloons TD 5, it can have exploding spiked balls, but only if they reach the popping limit.
 * Juggernaut is best placed at the end of a long, straight road and a target priority of last or close to make best use of its long range and high bloon popping capability.
 * In Bloons TD 5, the Juggernaut upgrade gives the Spike-O-Pult extra range.
 * This is the only Dart Monkey upgrade that normally can pop Lead Bloons in Bloons TD 5.
 * It is also good at popping Camo Leads.
 * If you place a 2-0 Dart Monkey near a Dart Monkey with Super Monkey Fan Club upgrade, then use the ability, wait for the 2-0 Dart Monkey to transform into a Super Monkey. Then, upgrade it to Juggernaut and it change into a Juggernaut Dart Monkey that shoots as fast as a Super Monkey for the duration of the Super Monkey Fan Club ability, making the Juggernaut a Self-aiming (slower) Ray of Doom. It also works with Spike-O-Pults. This will only work once on flash versions.
 * Juggernaut is the cheapest final upgrade, costing $1500, the 2nd cheapest being the Absolute Zero ability for Ice Tower costing $2000.
 * When a Temple Of The Monkey God sacrifices a Juggernaut, it will not shoot blades like mostly 4th upgrade towers, it will shoot darts like unupgraded towers, (with the exception of Monkey Apprentices, Super Monkeys, Mortar Towers, Bomb Towers, Glue Gunners and Ice Towers). However if a Super Monkey Fan Club is sacrificed, it will shoot blades.
 * This happens because the Juggernaut is very cheap (total cost: $2250, $2520 w/ Path 2 upgrades).
 * The Juggernaut has the range of a Super Monkey with Super Range.
 * The Juggernaut has a pretty big size, letting other towers be where they are not supposed to be. This happens because of the small footprint of the original tower.
