Hydra Rocket Pods is the Dartling Gun's path 2 tier 3 upgrade in Bloons TD 5. Instead of darts, the tower fire missiles that have 1 pierce when fired, each creating explosions when hitting bloons that pop all bloon types with 40 pierce and a 60 unit radius.
In the multiplatform version of Bloons TD 5, Hydra Rocket Pods is affected by a bug which increases the amount of explosions made per pierce increase added to the rockets.

Strategy
Hydra Rocket Pods is a much better upgrade in the mobile version compared to the Flash version due to the aforementioned Monkey Fort projectile duplication bug, which allows it to effortlessly handle large bloon cluster rounds on its own.
Without the bug, the upgrade suffers from one main issue: by the time the player is able to purchase it in-game, high odds are that they are facing high HP bloons like Ceramics and MOAB-Class Bloons, which are its greatest weaknesses. Thus, it is better used as a stepping stone towards its next upgrade, Bloon Area Denial System, which can serve as good bloon cleanup.
