The [b]SV-001[/b] ([b]Super Vehicle 001) Metal Slug[/b] is the main protagonist playable [[battle]] [[tank]] of [[SNK]]'s [[Metal Slug]] series, driven by the Regular Army. It is very light, small and fast, has very resistant armor, is able to cross any type of terrain and is armed with a potent short barreled HE and AP [[cannon]] in its [[turret]] as well as dual vulcan [[machine gun]]s with blue tracer bullets in its rear section.
 
In [[real life]] its unique design was inspired by the [[Bonaparte (tank)]] from the [[Dominion (manga)|]] [[cyberpunk]] manga published a decade before the release of Metal Slug.
