A developer successfully implements polymorphism with the following line of code: Soldier mySoldier = new ArmouredSoldier(50); The ArmouredSoldier subclass contains a unique, public method declared as public void releaseArmour(). What happens if the developer attempts to execute the command mySoldier.releaseArmour(); on the next line?
