== | The '''M12R Light Anti-Aircraft Vehicle''',{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} abbreviated as '''M12R LAAV''' and commonly referred to as the '''Missile Warthog''', '''Rocket Warthog''',{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} or '''Rockethog''',<ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians Official Game Guide (Collector's Edition)''', ''page 283''</ref> is a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] ground vehicle. It is a variant of the [[M12 Force Application Vehicle]] that features a mounted [[M79 rocket launcher|M79 Multiple Launch Rocket System]]{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}<ref name="arsenal">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUY2Ybc4Zdk&hd=1 '''Youtube''': ''Halo: Reach - Implements of War'']</ref> or its [[M80 missile launcher|M80]] successor.{{Ref/Reuse|H5guide}} | ||

==Design details== | |||
The M12R LAAV is designed to quickly and efficiently defeat lightly armored vehicles such as the [[Rizvum-pattern Revenant|Type-48 Revenant]] and the {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}}. The M12R LAAV differs from the basic M12 LRV only in its armament, a single M79 Multiple Launch Rocket System which fires six [[Argent V missile|65mm Argent V rockets]] per volley every two to three seconds. The M79 MLRS' rockets are capable of achieving target lock on aircraft, though they cannot lock onto ground vehicles. | |||
==Operational history== | |||
During the UNSC's [[Battle at Szurdok Ridge|counterattack]] against the Covenant at [[Szurdok Ridge]] during the [[Fall of Reach]] in [[2552#August|August 12, 2552]], an M12R was deployed with a single [[UNSC Army|soldier]] mounted on the rocket launcher for use by [[NOBLE Team]]'s [[Catherine-B320]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]] after their [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]] had been destroyed and they had to fend off Covenant infantry and turrets.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Tip of the Spear]]''</ref> | |||
During the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|hostilities]] with the [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction|reformed Covenant]], many of these vehicles participated in the [[Battle of Requiem|battle]] and [[Requiem Campaign|campaign]] fought on the [[Forerunner]] [[shield world]] [[Requiem]] in [[2557]] and [[2558]], respectively. Several were used by [[Fireteam Crimson]] during their missions, including the clearing of the location known as Quarry and the defense of Cauldron Base.<ref>'''Halo 4''', ''[[Spartan Ops]]''</ref> | |||
==Variants== | |||
*'''Corp Rocket Warthog''' - A few credits in the right hands and even a missile platform can be ruled to have a legitimate use by corporate entities. Features extra armor and is used by the [[Liang Dortmund Corporation]].<ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref> | |||
*'''Tundra Rocket Warthog''' - A tundra camouflaged variant used by the UNSC. Features better armor than the Corp Hog.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} | |||
*'''Urban Rocket Warthog''' - An urban camouflaged variant used by the UNSC. Features better armor than the Corp Hog.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} | |||
*'''Woodland Rocket Warthog''' - A woodland camouflaged variant used by the UNSC. Features better armor than the Corp Hog.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} | |||
*'''ONI Rocket Warthog''' - ONI Rocket Warthogs use multi-role missiles that can lock on to both ground and air targets. Features better armor than the camouflaged models.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} | |||
*'''Vespin Warthog''' - UNSC expeditionary forces allied with [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s [[Swords of Sanghelios]] conduct joint patrols to monitor and defend the [[Sanghelios]] badlands from [[Covenant remnants]] and [[Created]] scouts. Named after a particularly [[Vespin|deadly pseudo-arachnid]] that often lairs in the ancient temple complexes used as staging areas, the Vespin Warthog can deal a deadly defensive sting against any local predator, living or construct. The Vespin M-12 is an improved Warthog with high-acceleration rockets and faster reload time.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-driving-force'''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Canon Fodder: Driving Force'']</ref> | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*[[Breakpoint]] was the first map map to feature this vehicle in matchmaking. | |||
