pineapple pierce use case mostly for "pierce" on explosives, the pineapple is otherwise mostly relegated to the spy plane crosspath in those situations where you need camo detect (we discuss this in spy plane article), and we should state that pineapples transitions into spy plane because that's usually the main incentive for the crosspath. was gonna say "and subpar for flying fortress" but nah.

The pineapple attack is a cheap source of extra pierce, such as for [[Race Event]]s with Ace starts, but its inconsistency makes it unwieldy for cheap lead-popping. More often, it's bought for [[Spy Plane (BTD6)|Spy Plane]]'s innate camo detection, or supplement a niche to destroying dense groups for [[Spectre (BTD6)|Spectre]] or [[Fighter Plane (BTD6)|Fighter Plane]] and above.
