They should add them other Warthogs too (Snow Warthog, Jungle Warthog etc). And can someone get a proper picture of the Rocket Warthog, that one there is green and should be black. [[User:Joshua 029|Joshua 029]]

Where did you get the names of the warhog variations?  I don't see a link.

That's a pre-Xbox pic and those are Spartans, not ODST's.

The warthog can go up to 80&nbsp;mph. they were desighned to cacth ghosts but the UNSC had no idea that they could boost so the effort was some what pointless. However they were quick enough to take out spectras so the kept them, Plus they needed a multi transport vehicle--[[User:Jmartinsgalvin|Crash]] 23:34, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

In Contact Harvest, when Johnson says it's going at 120, I'm pretty certain he means in Kmph rather than mph. If you convert 120 Kmph to MPH, you get... 74. That sounds more like it. I think 78&nbsp;mph is the most accurate number we have. [[User:Diaboy|Diaboy]] 13:39, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Ok whoever says it is slower than a ghost boosting is ignorant. I have tested all usuable vehicles on sandtrap and the warthog, though lacking in acceleration, can oust any usuable vehicle in top speed, even a boosting banshee. If you don't believe me test it with a friend. Though warthog will lose at first then catch up to and pass any vehicle once it reaches its top speed. I'm working on getting a video for you non-listeners but its rather difficult when your xbl runs out and you have no money to renew it.

It was NEVER a confirmed feature, just a rumour. The [[Support Weapons]] are different weapons. The AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun is not the same gun as the [[M41 LAAG]], its a replacment for the [[M247 GPMG]].

I have to agree with the 14 feet, because if you kill yourself length-wise to it in-game and then measure that, it comes out to very near 4 meters as opposed to 6 or whatever it was.  Also, if you have a second person playing at the same time, one can plainly see that the 'Hog is only marginally taller than Chief.  If I had to estimate, I would say approximately 2.3 m.  Please, I urge you to change this.

In Halo 3, if look carefully at the rims on the Warthogs, the all say ''Puma''. This is clearly a reference a Red vs. Blue where Simmons and Grif argue with Sarge about whether to call the Warthog ''Puma, ''or ''Warthog''. Grif and Simmons think it is a puma. Later, when Tucker spots through his sniper scope, he think it looks like "some sort of puma thing."

::FAV appears again in the Human arsenal video on Waypoint. Perhaps the LRV designation only applies to the standard LAAV Vulcan-equipped warthogs?
