| {{iw|warswiki|Infantry|unit}} and {{s|warswiki|Tank}}s are the basic direct combat ground units seen in all ''Nintendo Wars'' games. Infantry have the least amount of power and low mobility, but can capture enemy properties. Tanks have more power and mobility than Infantry, but are weaker than other vehicles such as the {{s|warswiki|Medium Tank}} and {{iw|warswiki|Artillery|Advance Wars}}.
| | Infantry and Tanks are the basic attack units seen in all ''Advance Wars'' games. The ones seen in ''Brawl'' are red, which is one of the four colors which are given to a player based on player order (1st player - red, 2nd player - blue, 3rd player - green, 4th - yellow). Infantry have the least amount of power (also compared to their counterparts that wield more powerful weapons like bazookas), but are useful in that they can capture enemy bases and conquer buildings. Tanks have more power, but aren't as powerful as the other vehicles. ''Advance Wars'', ''[[warswiki:Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising|Advance Wars 2]]'', and ''[[warswiki:Advance Wars: Dual Strike|Advance Wars: Dual Strike]]'' all use the same sprites for each unit. |
|

|
| The Assist Trophy's units are part of the {{s|warswiki|Orange Star}} army, evident by their titular coloration. Their appearance is based on the map sprites used in ''{{iw|warswiki|Advance Wars|game}}'', ''{{s|warswiki|Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising}}'', and ''{{s|warswiki|Advance Wars: Dual Strike}}''.
| | The sound that plays when Infantry and Tanks are summoned first appeared in the intro for the Famicom game ''[[warswiki:Famicom Wars (game)|Famicom Wars]]''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpLMztL89hw] |

| |desc-pal=Two units from Famicom Wars. In this game, they'll appear in pixel form on both sides of the character that called them up. The infantry then fire their guns while the tanks use cannon fire and drive into people. Cute as they are, don't underestimate them or you'll find yourself in a world of hurt!

| ==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
| |
| Infantry and Tanks do not return as an Assist Trophy. However, they do have a [[spirit]] based upon their appearance in ''{{s|warswiki|Super Famicom Wars}}''.
| |
| | |
| ===Spirit===
| |
| Tank & Infantry appear as an Advanced-class [[support spirit]].
| |
| | |
| Tank & Infantry did not initially have a Spirit Battle, but gained one via the [[The More the Merrier]] [[Spirit Board]] event.
| |
| | |
| Tank & Infantry's Spirit Battle use a [[Metal]] [[Iggy Koopa]] puppet fighter and two {{SSBU|Snake}} minions respectively and are fought on the [[Gerudo Valley]] stage. During the battle, Iggy favors his [[Clown Cannon]] move, referencing the missiles the Tank shoots from its cannon.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Despite an {{iw|warswiki|HQ|Advance Wars}} being featured in the Infantry & Tanks artwork on the DOJO!! and in their trophy in ''Brawl'', it is absent in the Assist Trophy.
| |
| *Infantry and Tanks are one of 5 Assist Trophies to have appeared since ''Brawl'', but are absent in ''Ultimate''.
| |
|
| |
|
| | == Trivia == |
| | *These particular units are members of the Orange Star army, which has been the main force of the series since ''Advance Wars'' on the GBA. |
| | *Although the Assist Trophy is in sprite form, the bullets from the tanks are in 3-D form. |
| | *Despite a Headquarters building being prominently featured in the Infantry & Tanks design on the DOJO!! website and even their in-game [[Trophy]], the HQ never appears when the characters are actually summoned during a match. |
| | *Although called "Infantry and '''Tanks'''", the sprite is an MD Tank, not just an ordinary Tank |
