On [[2553#December|December 12, 2553]], the [[Spartan-II]]s [[Fred-104]] and [[Kelly-087]] drove a pair of Jackrabbits through the front window of [[Trattoria Georgi]], a restaurant in [[New Tyne]], [[Venezia]], that catered to those involved in [[black market]] purchases and smuggling. Jackrabbits were also used by the [[Surakan Militia Volunteers]] during the [[Battle of Carrow]] in July [[2558]].<ref name="Envoy"/> Prior to the defense of [[Onyx]] in October 2558, [[Spartan-III]]s [[Tom-B292]] and [[Lucy-B091]] used Jackrabbits armed with machine guns to destroy a group of [[sentinel]]s.<ref name="LOO">'''[[Halo: Legacy of Onyx]]'''</ref> Cheap and easy to manufacture, the Jackrabbit's design blueprint was one of the first to be integrated by the ''[[Spirit of Fire]]'' after [[Isabel]]'s rescue on March 28, [[2559]], for use [[Second Ark Conflict|against]] the [[Banished]] on [[Installation 00]].<ref name="log jackrabbit"/><ref name="HW2">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]'''</ref> | |||

Following the UNSC tradition of naming vehicles after animals | *Following the UNSC tradition of naming vehicles after animals the M121 is named after the [[Wikipedia:Hare|Jackrabbit]]. | ||
*In the ''[[Halo Wars 2 Open Beta]]'' when upgraded with the Mini-frag launcher, [[James Cutter]] called the upgraded Jackrabbit a Gunrabbit.<ref>'''[[Halo Wars 2 Open Beta]]'''</ref> | |||
*Following a balance update with the release of [[DLC|Icons of War]], in the multiplayer section of ''Halo Wars 2'' the Jackrabbit spawns with its grenade launcher by default instead of requiring an upgrade.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/38bd6e2ebbb14e5b9b359bb029588800/topics/balance-update---june-29/3a762cac-1fe3-47ba-b507-df278253d31d/posts '''Halo Waypoint - June 29, 2017, Patch Notes''']</ref> | |||
