* AwesomeButImpractical: The Sidewinder is essentially a mobile army base, described as perfect for dealing with brush wars. It has such strong pincer-tipped arms that it can clear its own path through a dense jungle by ripping trees up by the roots. However, those spindly legs that allow it to cross terrain that is impassable for wheeled vehicles mean it cannot self-right if something manages to tip it on its roof. It is also so large and heavy that specialist heavy-lifting equipment is needed to pull it out of any pit or crevasse it falls into.

* MilitariesAreUseless: The militairy itself are the ones that get in trouble this episode and their own attempts to save the Sidewinder fail miserably. That last part is justified since they are in a remote area with no opportunity to bring in better equipment on a short notice, so they have to make do with what they got in the field.

The United States Army's latest development, the [[WalkingTank quadrupedal]] Sidewinder armoured transport, is undergoing field tests in the wilderness. Equipped with two grasping claws and weighing over 500 tonnes, the vehicle was built to counter African brushfire wars. Alas, the enormous walker crosses an unmarked military landfill that had gained a thin topsoil crust, and plunged into the [[TitleDrop Pit Of Peril]]. The waste in the pit has caught fire, and the Sidewinder is trapped on its side.
