shah-goh-hohd
After a long time, the name for the new Metal
Gear unit in Metal Gear
Solid 3 : Snake Eater is confirmed. Shagohod is its name, once and for all.
Shagohod is a massive, somewhat-bipedal
tank, capable of operating on any land on the planet. The crown jewel of the Shagohod, however, is its nuclear capabilities; it is equipped with a massive turret designed to launch an SS-20 Saber-Class nuclear missile. Other than its nuclear capability, the Shagohod is the missing link between infantry and artillery, and given MGS3'
s setting, the Shagohod's deployment ultimately means the end of the Cold
War, the end of nuclear deterrence, and thus, World
War III.
