Each time the Monty Tank is hit, it will quickly move back and forth along the ground. While doing so, it will also rapidly fire Bullet Bills from its multiple levels, depending on how many times it had been damaged. Each time it is hit, one more level is added to the tank, making it taller. As such, if Mario uses a Ground Pound on the first hit, two levels will be added.
