Description
The M19-B Surface-to-Air Missile Launcher, commonly shortened to M19-B SAM Missile Launcher, is a heavy ordnance weapon used by the UNSC. The M19-B Surface-to-Air Missle Launcher fires high-powered surface-to-air missiles. The weapon was deployed in limited numbers for UNSC ground forces in the 2540's and early 2550's.
