| '''Argent V missiles''' are a family of pod-launched missiles capable of lock-on precision guidance or "dumb-fire"{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}, allowing them to destroy both surface targets and aircraft. These missiles are mounted on a wide selection of vehicles, from ground vehicles like the [[M12R Rocket Warthog]], the atmospheric [[AC-220 Vulture|AC-220 Gunship]]<ref>[http://halowars.com/GameInfo/vehicledepot.aspx#Wolverine '''Official Halo Wars Community Site''': ''UNSC Vehicle Depot - Wolverine'']</ref><ref>[http://halowars.com/GameInfo/airpad.aspx#Vulture '''Official Halo Wars Community Site''': ''UNSC Air Pad - Vulture'']</ref>, all the way to FTL capable warships. | | {{Ratings}} |

| | '''Argent V missiles''' are surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) capable of destroying both surface targets and aircraft. These missiles are usually mounted on the [[MAAT-9 Wolverine]] anti-aircraft vehicle, though (curiously) they can also be used to strike ground targets as well. <ref>http://halowars.com/GameInfo/vehicledepot.aspx#Wolverine</ref> The [[Vulture]] gunship also carried pods loaded with an air-to-air variant of the Argent V to defend against Covenant fighters. |

| They can also be readily mounted on to vehicles that don't come equipped with them. [[Franklin Mendez]] was known to mount a rack of these missiles on his [[M12 Warthog|personal Warthog]], back when he was training the [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II's]] on [[Reach]] as a [[Chief Petty Officer]].<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''pages 69-70''</ref> [[Ilsa Zane]] was also known to operate a similarly-modified vehicle.<ref name="HTT">'''[[Hunt the Truth]]''', ''[[Hunt the Truth Season 2|Season 2]] - Episode 6 - Transcendance''</ref>
