M12 Chaingun Warthog

Template:Vehicle Infobox The M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle^[1], abbreviated as the M12 LRV, is a variant of the United Nations Space Command's M12 Force Application Vehicle. Models fielded during the Insurrection and the Human-Covenant War featured a turret-mounted M41 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun, while post-war models are armed with an M46 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun.^[2]

Design details

The M12 LRV is the UNSC's anti-infantry vehicle, designed to quickly and efficiently eliminate lightly armored personnels. The LRV is almost exactly the same in every detail to the standard M12 "Warthog" FAV except that it is equipped with a mounted M41 or M46 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun. The triple-barreled, electric-powered, linkless, belt-fed machine gun is capable of firing 450 to 550 12.7x99mm armor penetrating rounds per minute.

Trivia

The M12 LRV in Halo: Reach can be made to look like a civilian Warthog. Simply spawn a Kill Ball and a M12 LRV, and grab the vehicle and move it into the Kill Ball for a second then move it out. The Kill Ball should render the vehicle without a turret.
