I'm a little iffy on calling it a grenade launcher, since the (admittedly limited) footage I've seen seems to show the projectile being self-propelled and guided, but it's the closest term I know of. Anybody who knows better, please feel free to correct it. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 16:26, 26 November 2014 (EST)

:I'd say air burst grenade launcher since unlike the plasma launcher, these are (what looks like) grenades and they seem to explode near the target. [[User:SamGall|SamGall]] ([[User talk:SamGall|talk]]) 17:52, 26 November 2014 (EST)

I think a youngster just recently learned of the existence of the XM-25 from Call of Duty or something, and tried to shoehorn in their "knowledge". Anyone who knows anything about contemporary weapons would know that the Hydra is no more similar to the Hydra than other contemporary "smart grenade" launchers. The idea of grenades that can be set to fire at a determined distance is not new, nor is it unique to the XM-25.

Long story short, the trivia was not really accurate or relevant. It makes no more sense than to say the M90 shotgun is similar in form and function to the Pancor Jackhammer.{{unsigned|Pvt sleepy}}

:Agreed with your edit. It has as much validity as saying the BR55 bears a superficial resemblance to the XM8, which we had on that article for a while but eventually removed. Not to mention, having seen only a limited amount of footage of the weapon, I don't know if we can legitimately say that it does function in a similar way. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 03:18, 20 December 2014 (EST)
