Sniper Armor is an enemy that made it's first appearance in Mega Man 2 and again in Mega Man: The Wily Wars. A variant of the Sniper Armor made an appearance in Mega Man 11. Sniper Armor was added to Mega Man Maker in version 1.7.0.

Sniper Armor is a large mech piloted by a Sniper Joe. Once on screen Sniper Armor will periodically make a large jump toward the player's location, and once in close proximity to the player will fire several shots that can travel horizontally to diagonally downard originating from the carriage area of the large mech. If the player runs from the Sniper Armor it will pursue by leaping until coming into close proximity once again and will resume it's projectile firing behavior. If the Sniper Armor is destroyed the Sniper Joe riding the armor will leap to the ground and behave like a standard Mega Man 2 Sniper Joe.

For behavior of the Joe after the armor is destroyed, see Returning Sniper Joe.
