Quoting from whoever added this to the actual page article:

"Whoever wrote this article is partially right. However,

The Raider Recruit has identical defensive and dodge stats as the Veteran, but it has the extra 200 armor at rank 6. It is an exceptional unit in both PvP and PvE, due to the wimp-like attack. Also, its incredibly high defensive stats make it very hard to hit. I am able to kill the Ancient Sentinel with this unit.

This unit is very good for killing the Ancient Sentinel. I use 2 of these (Rank 6) (Yes I got them to Rank 6 through wimp farming and hurrying promotions) and a wimp (Rank 6) in the front row. I put 4 Mega Tanks (Rank 6) in the second row, and put a Radio Tech (Rank 6) and a Trebuchet (Rank 6) as well as a Frostbite (Rank 6) in the last row. This strategy works when the Ranged Arm is able to be frozen (Freezing and Stun Immunities switch between the arms now). You first freeze the ranged arm and destroy it with the trebuchet and the wimp. This is where the Raider Recruit comes in. Because the frontline is mostly infantry, the melee arm cannot use its best attack (which is vehicles only), making it completely useless. The defensive and dodge stats make it incredibly hard to hit. Then, you just have to kill the main body (which has devastating attacks but really long cooldowns) of the Ancient Sentinel using the Radio Tech and Mega Tank spam. If you have a Snake or a Blood Ninja, you should replace it with the Radio Tech, as they have a better Damage Per Turn than the Radio Tech."
