MOAB Shove (BTDB2)

"Can collide with and shove MOAB-Class Bloons, reversing or slowing their movement. Shove is amplified by Bigger Jets and IFR upgrades."

- In-game description

MOAB Shove is the third upgrade of Path 3 for the Heli Pilot in BTD6. It allows the Heli Pilot to push back MOAB-class bloons (except BADs). When the MOAB Shove touches the hitbox of any MOAB-class bloon, it pushes the first collided blimp backwards. The MOAB Shove effect is more effective against weaker blimps but weaker against stronger blimps. With Bigger Jets, the shove effect becomes stronger. MOAB Shove will also gain an extra rocket attack that deals 1 damage, +2 damage to Ceramics and above, has 10 pierce, and a blast radius of 18. (check numbers)

Appearance
This upgrade adds a grill to the front of the helicopter, and adds an extra chevron to each side.

Strategy
MOAB Shove is a cheap alternative to Maim MOAB and other MOAB-slowing towers, and has the benefit of always being active (unlike Bloon Sabotage) and re-positionable (unlike MOAB Glue). It is weak to rushes of MOAB class boons.

While a 203 MOAB Shove can pursue bloons, a 023 may actual work better on many maps, as its increased shove and camo detection allows it to stall Fortified DDTs significantly, especially when placed in a central location in a map. This allows anti-DDT towers such as Sticky Bomb more time to destroy the DDTs.
