The '''M19 102mm high-explosive, shaped-charge surface-to-surface missile''' ('''M19 SSM''') is a munition for the [[M41 SPNKR|M41 SSR MAV/AW Rocket Launcher]]{{Ref/Book|Id=evg|EVG|Page=156}}{{Ref/Book|Id=art|AoH3|Page=57}} and [[M39 rocket turret]] employed on the back of the [[M12A1 Rocket Warthog]].{{Ref/Game|HPC|[[M39 rocket turret]] in-game model}}


==Overview==
The '''102mm High-Explosive Anti-Tank''' '''(HEAT)''' shaped charge can be fired from [[M19 SSM Rocket Launcher]] and [[M41 SSR MAV/AW Rocket Launcher]]. The 102mm HEAT charges are large, almost as large as the 105-120mm shells that the 21st century tanks used to fire.
The M19 SSM is a [[wikipedia:High-explosive anti-tank warhead|HEAT]] and plays the role of an anti-vehicular ordnance. It possesses a blast radius of {{Convert|15|ft|m}}. As such, it is capable of penetrating the heavy armor of even the [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]; lighter vehicles, such as the [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]], are typically destroyed upon impact. The M19's blast radius is rather large, making the projectile effective against concentrated groups of infantry.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc11|Enc11|Page=328}}

*If timed correctly, a gravity hammer can cause it to spin out of control, and eventually explode. This method can also cause the rocket to flip backward at the person who fired it, possibly killing them.
