Sub Commander is the Monkey Sub's path 3 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It grants Monkey Sub a buff to all Monkey Subs in its range (or to all Monkey Subs on the screen with 
Sub Admiral), including itself. This buff doubles affected Monkey Subs' damage including bonus damage, and increases pierce by +4. This buff does not double the damage of First Strike Capability and Pre-emptive Strike's abilities, but it does increase the pierce of the abilities' explosions.
This upgrade also reduces attack cooldown by 50%, and increases airburst projectiles from 3 to 5.
Stats
These stats do not include the Sub Commander's buff, which it virtually always has.

Strategy
Sub Commander is a decent all-round T5 that has accurate high-projectile shots. It has a relatively smooth save-up from Armor Piercing Darts and performs relatively well in the mid-game, with its biggest hurdles being Rounds 63 and 75, whose Lead Bloons can block it. Crosspathing with Advanced Intel is preferred, as Heat-tipped Darts's innate Lead-popping is outweighed by its limited range. Sub Commander also pairs well with Stronger Stimulant, thanks to the damage, pierce, and attack speed boosts all helping its better-splitting darts.
Sub Commander by itself struggles past Round 80, especially against DDTs, even with Heat-tipped Darts. Thus, it is generally used with other Subs that it can buff, with Pre-emptive Strike being a strong pairing in CHIMPS due to the latter taking down all DDTs (including Fortified) with it and having other utilities. Ballistic Missiles are recommended to round out the setup for compact maps where all lanes intersect, while Triple Guns and/or Armor Piercing Darts are recommended on maps with alternating lanes. Admiral Brickell is recommended, and Sub Commander + Triple Guns spam is also a strong option for Least Cash Ranked Bosses, especially Phayze.

Dart: base damage increased by 1- Dart: damage to MOAB-Class increased by 1

“
The cost efficiency of Sub Commander's +5 pierce favored low tiers more than we’d like. Fortunately other paths of sub don’t care so much about pierce, so as xx4 AP Darts gives its own large pierce increase we hope lowering the amount of this buff slightly will make driving to T4 more meaningful.

- Sub Commander buff: pierce bonus reduced ― +5 → +4
- Resolved some issues with xx5 Sub Commander not always correctly buffing the damage of x5x Pre-emptive Strike (bug fix)

“
Finally Armour[sic] Piercing Darts, the upgrade that has had fans yelling ‘it doesn’t actually pierce armor!’ for years – it still won’t hit Leads (Not sorry). Now it grants bonus damage against Fortified targets.
