The Mongoose is a small ATV style vehicle capable of transporting two people at once. The front person drives the vehicle while the person on the back is capable of firing with one of the hands. Because of the speed of the mongoose and possible as a result of the one handed hold on the weapon, it is far difficult to fire a weapon accurately from the back of a mongoose in any direction except front or back.
The Mongoose requires a greater amount of control when driving and relies heavily on mapping out your path for a smooth ride compared to the Warthog who's main concern is constant motion and setting up good firing lanes for the gunner. Because the Mongoose is such a light vehicle, it is very easy for small bumps to cause the vehicle to tumble. As a result, it's very important that the mongoose driver pay as much attention to where they are going as possible.
It's a great vehicle for quickly getting around to the flank but because of it's lack of armor, it's not very good for punching through defenses.
