A Vulture using ANVIL-IV Missiles against a Covenant Scarab.

The Anvil-IV Air-to-Surface Missiles are an explosive ordnance mounted on AC-220 Vulture Gunships. These missiles are fired by an A-74 Sylver Vertical Missile Launcher^[1] to make them fall upon enemy ground targets. They are most likely related to the Pelican's ANVIL-II Air-to-Surface Missiles.

These missiles are mounted on the Vulture once the "Mega Barrage" upgrade has been researched.
