- This article is about the tanks first appearing in Super Mario Bros. 3. For the enemies in Super Mario Odyssey sometimes generically referred to as "tanks" in the Prima guide, see Sherm.
Tanks[1] are large, segmented, and heavily armed land vehicles utilized by Bowser and his armies in various games. They are usually equipped with various artillery, such as cannons, Rocket Engines, Bob-omb launchers, and Rocky Wrenches. In addition, some tanks were just mostly square in shape.

A tank in
Super Mario 3D World
In Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port, tanks appear in Bowser's Bullet Bill Brigade and Bowser's Bob-omb Brigade. In these levels, they slowly move around the levels, and Spike Traps are found on them. In this game, tanks have lights. The lights are activated only in the latter level, which takes place at night.
The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3
Tanks also appear in the episode "Princess Toadstool for President" in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3; here, several tanks and Rocky Wrenches appear to attack Mario and Luigi when they enter Dark Land.
