'''MOAB Shove''' is the [[Heli Pilot (BTD6)|Heli Pilot]]'s path 3 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Heli Pilot a new shove attack, which can slow or reverse the movement of [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]]. This attack deals no [[damage]], and has 1 [[pierce]] ~~which~~ cannot be buffed. [[Bigger Jets (BTD6)|Bigger Jets]] enhances the shove's strength.

This upgrade also grants Heli Pilot a new homing missile attack. This attack deals 2 damage with +2 [[Ceramic damage]], +2 [[MOAB-Class damage]], 10 pierce, and a 3 second attack cooldown. Missiles have infinite range, unlike Heli Pilot's other attacks. These missiles cannot damage [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]].

This upgrade's description is misleading: the shove is ''not'' amplified by the [[IFR (BTD6)|IFR]] upgrade except that it gains [[Camo detection]].

MOAB Shove is a cheap and easy-to-use MOAB stall against a single blimp. It can ~~be moved~~ anywhere, allowing it to single out a MOAB or BFB for a very long stall. In the mid-game it assists defenses that have a MOAB weakness, while towards the late-game it shifts into an end-of-round staller, alongside a ~~significant~~ ZOMG slow. Unlike most towers, Shove doesn't fall off much on multilane maps, which often separate MOAB-class Bloons on different lanes, allowing Shove to focus on one at a time, making it easier to focus on an isolated blimp.

In the mid-game it assists defenses that have a MOAB weakness, while towards the late-game it shifts into an end-of-round staller, alongside a singular ZOMG slow on rounds like 85 and 97. Unlike most towers, Shove doesn't fall off much on multilane maps, which often separate MOAB-class Bloons on different lanes, allowing Shove to focus on one at a time, making it easier to focus on an isolated blimp.

In [[CHIMPS]], Shove's capability to stall the end of a round is important, long enough to cool off all activated abilities or maximize stockpiles, especially from [[Perma-Spike (BTD6)|Perma-Spike]]. For [[Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|Boss Bloon Event]]s, Shove can be used to stall out Resurrected Blimps from T1 [[Lych]].
