First Strike Capability is the Monkey Sub's path 2 tier 4 upgrade in the mobile version of Bloons TD Battles. It unlocks an Activated Ability that launches a seeking missile that targets the strongest Bloon on-screen (though it can hit another Bloon if it is in the path), which can detect Camo Bloons. On contact, the missile deals 6,000 damage to the target and fully destroys it if it deals more damage than the total health of each MOAB-Class Bloon layer it has, then distributes the remaining damage among other Bloons within the blast radius. For example, if the target is a ZOMG, it counts as 4,900 damage without late-game health scaling because the ZOMG has 4,000 health, the BFB has 700 health, and the MOAB has 200 health, so it destroys the full ZOMG and distributes the remaining 1,100 damage among other Bloons within its range. This ability has a 60-second cooldown.

Due to a bug, the pop count only registers the number of Bloons that had their first layers popped, not the total number of layers destroyed.
