==Halo: Combat Evolved==
==[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]==
The Rocket launcher of [[Halo: Combat Evolved|Halo: CE]] is known to be the strongest out of all in the Halo universe, for example one shot can destroy a [[Ghost]] or a [[Banshee]], and kill you at point-blank range, even with full overshields on. It holds up to 10 rockets (2 in the barrel and 8 in reload position). The size of the Rocket launcher is bigger than the one in [[Halo 2]]. Also, it shoots slower than its [[Halo 2]] and [[Halo 3]] counterparts, but can kill a large group of enemies. A downside to this variant of the rocket launcher is that it doesn't lock on to an enemy vehicle like in [[Halo 2]]. However, in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Campaign, enemy [[Ghost|Ghosts]], [[Wraith|Wraiths]] and even [[Banshee|Banshees]] are driven in straight lines, making them very easy to destroy when moving towards you. Usually, it only takes one rocket to kill a Hunter on lower difficulties.

==[[Halo 2]]==
In [[Halo 2]], the Rocket Launcher is much weaker than the one from [[Halo:Combat Evolved]], although it still can destroy a small sized vehicle with one shot. Despite how many rockets it takes to take out a vehicle, the Halo 2 rocket launcher has a lock on system that tracks an enemy vehicle and nearly always hits its mark, destroying it. It can also shoot much faster.
