*The Cobra's artillery mode has an uncanny resemblance to the [[w:c:starcraft:Siege tank (StarCraft)|Terran siege tank]] from ''Starcraft'', which can transform from tank mode to siege mode, with a sacrifice of mobility for longer range and greater firepower. | *The Cobra's artillery mode has an uncanny resemblance to the [[w:c:starcraft:Siege tank (StarCraft)|Terran siege tank]] from ''Starcraft'', which can transform from tank mode to siege mode, with a sacrifice of mobility for longer range and greater firepower. | ||
*The vehicle was originally described as being similar to a Russian 'Katyusha' rocket artillery vehicle, which was spurred on by the appearance of vehicles similar to the [[M9 Main Anti-Aircraft Tank|M9 Wolverine]] but possessing a different ordnance rack. This was a case of mistaken identity, as the vehicle sighted was actually a Wolverine, but with an upgrade adding a second missile pod, creating confusion. | *The vehicle was originally described as being similar to a Russian 'Katyusha' rocket artillery vehicle, which was spurred on by the appearance of vehicles similar to the [[M9 Main Anti-Aircraft Tank|M9 Wolverine]] but possessing a different ordnance rack.

*The Cobra resembles the Siege Tank from Starcraft/Starcraft 2, another series of RTS games. The Siege Tank in the Starcraft series, besides also being a type of tank, has the ability to change to "siege mode", which is superficially similar to the Lockdown mode on the Cobra. In addition, a sieged Siege Tank also resembles a Cobra on Lockdown, with dual cannons and extensions from the main chassis. | |||
