Design details[edit]
- Main article: M41 SPNKr
SPNKr Prime is a modified variant of the standard M41 SPNKr that fires faster rockets.[4] Design-wise, it has the silver-colored tubes like the M41B SPNKr, while the hinge holding the magazine is colored deep crimson with yellow stripes. The two grips are also colored red. The Orbital Drop Shock Trooper emblem is etched on the weapon.[5]
Usage[edit]
In late 2558, Spartan-IVs serving aboard the UNSC Infinity trained with the SPNKr Prime in War Games simulations.[5]
Gameplay[edit]
- Main article: Rocket Launcher
The SPNKr Prime is an Legendary/Mythic 
energy Power Weapon REQ that grants 
200 REQ Points when sold. Holding the SPNKr Prime also grants the player higher movement speed, boosted shield strength, and increased jump height.
The M41 SPNKr is featured as a usable weapon called the SPNKr Rocket Launcher, in Halo 5: Guardians. It is a power weapon, which fires slow-moving rockets that deal an incredible amount of damage upon detonation, with a wide area of effect. The Rocket Launcher is one of the most powerful weapons in the game, and to compensate, it has a small magazine size, slow reload speed and ammo is generally very rare.
