Once deployed, Sentry Busters will make a beeline for an active Sentry Gun. Upon reaching the target, it stops moving and begins beeping.

As Sentry Busters take time to arm themselves, attentive Engineers can [[haul]] their Sentry out of the blast zone before it explodes. They are unlikely to have enough time to move a second building out of the way. Sentry Busters can be destroyed before they reach their objective but this is not a simple task.
