'''Door Gunner''' is a [[Military]] [[Monkey Knowledge (BTD6)|Monkey Knowledge]] upgrade in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants [[Special Poperations (BTD6)|Special Poperations]] an [[Activated Ability]] that allows it to pick up and carry one [[tower]] for an indefinite amount of time. The carried tower continues [[attack]]ing while inside the Heli, but the player cannot select it or activate its abilities. [[Sell]]ing the Heli Pilot while it is carrying a tower also sells the tower it carries. The player can use the ability again at any time to place the tower at a valid location, similar to its Redeploy ability. The player cannot use the Heli Pilot's Redeploy ability while it carries a tower. It shares its ability cooldown and initial cooldown with its Redeploy ability, so using one puts the other on cooldown. It is usable during the break between rounds.

The carried tower continues [[attack]]ing and ignores [[line of sight]] blockers while inside the Heli, but the player cannot select it or activate its abilities. While picked-up, a tower's ability cooldowns are paused. [[Sell]]ing the Heli Pilot while it is carrying a tower also sells the tower it carries.

A tower picked up by Door Gunner can be sacrificed to [[Paragon]]s if that tower is the same type as the to-be Paragon.

Door Gunner is also available in ''[[Rogue Legends]]'' as an item in the [[Rogue XP Shop]], costing 1,500 Rogue XP to unlock.

*Door Gunner was the result of persistent requests by a Design Co-Lead for ''Bloons TD 6'', Zach, to add a feature related to a bug in a pre-release build of ''BTD6'' that locks a tower onto the helicopter if placed too close to the Heli Pilot's pad.<ref name="zach-insider-nk-nov2025">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dvdTgxdPB4|title=Ninja Kiwi Insider Session #3: Bloons TD 6 Designer Zach!|date=18th November 2025|retrieved=19th November 2025}}</ref>

*The monkey depicted in the Door Gunner ability icon is a [[Maim MOAB (BTD6)|Maim MOAB]] [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]] with a few slight design changes, including a lack of leaves on its head and the scope of its rifle being green instead of red.
