What makes this model so unique from the previous ones that use the M12B chassis is that is uses an orange colored battery and lacks the overhead screen between the two seats that previous models had. It also has bars to reinforce the chairs. | What makes this model so unique from the previous ones that use the M12B chassis is that is uses an orange colored battery and lacks the overhead screen between the two seats that previous models had.

The M12B Warthog [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|LRV]] generally equips [[M46 Vulcan]] or [[M343A2 chaingun]]s, while the [[M12G1 Gauss Warthog|Gauss]] variant equips [[M68 Gauss cannon]]s or [[ | M12B-platform Warthogs typically operate different weaponry to their M12 counterparts.

While never actually considered for production, [[Project HOGSTICKER]] would also have potentially shared visual similarities with the M12B. | The M12B has seen extensive alteration for use on the civilian market.
