The '''M12B Warthog Force Application Vehicle''' is a military vehicle employed by the [[ | The '''M12B Warthog Force Application Vehicle''' is a military vehicle employed by the [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Armed Forces|Armed Forces]], and a variant of the venerable [[M12 Warthog]]. It was infrequently employed late in the [[Human-Covenant War]] and became a predominant sight in the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|Post-War]] era. | ||

This design typically carries several Jerrycans filled with water to be rendered into hydrogen for the engine. It has a lighting system of 24 LED brake light and ULED headlights. This chassis has a programmable nano-prismatic paint to refract color at any chromacity, depending on the vehicle's destination. A security bit was designed to prevent marines from tinkering with the finish, based on early and embarrassing experiences of the tech's deployment.<ref name="Altervista"/> Unlike most models used throughout the Human-Covenant War, this chassis uses a swing-axle system, a redesigned transmission and drive shafts, and constant-velocity joints. | ||

The 2554 M12B Force Application Vehicle "Warthog". What is unique about this variant is that is has a SLED searchlight, has "M-12" written on the steering wheel, used the original black colored UNSC insignia, uses a military alphabet stencil for the word "UNSC" and "STEP" on its body, has a yellow battery in the hood, and has an antenna on it. It also has a side rack holding something. In the seating area this one has brown chairs with bars to reinforce them, and a [[health pack]] between the seats of this variant. Unlike other models using this chassis, this one uses a dual spring suspension to keep the vehicle stable in different environments. This model also is darker than other models. | The 2554 M12B Force Application Vehicle "Warthog".

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.

M12B-platform Warthogs typically operate different weaponry to their M12 counterparts. 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 [[M555 Gauss cannon]]s and the [[M12R Rocket Warthog|rocket]] variant equipping either an [[M79 rocket launcher]] or an [[M80 missile launcher]]. In addition, several other armed variants of M12B Warthog exist, including one [[Flame Warthog|equipped]] with a mounted flamethrower, and others with increased [[Armored Warthog|armour protection]]. | |||

The M12B has seen extensive alteration for use on the civilian market. The [[M12S Warthog CST]] is one of the most prominent examples, outfitted for cross-country and other racing duties. The <nowiki>#</nowiki>550 Scuderia StarSpeed M-12R is another such example, based on the 2558 chassis. Several variants of the "[[Hog]]" line of vehicles, including the 2556 and 2558 models are also based on the M12B design. 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.
