Talk:M12A1 Rocket Warthog

A picture of the M12A1 in black like it currently is, is required. If I didn't know better, I would say it's just the normal Warthog with a rocket turret and nothing different. ~ Zeka Pamuee 04/08/07 7:52PM

I have a question. in the book "The Fall of Reach" in ch 8, pg 69-70, it says "Mendez escorted her to his personal Warthog parked outside his office. The all-terrain combat vehicle had been refitted; the heavy chain-gun on the back had been removed and replaced with a rack of Argent V missiles." I think that Dr. Halsey is saying that Chief Mendez's warthog is a M12A1 Warthog LAAV. But is it, or is it a completely new Warthog.

sorry, forgot to said who wrote the question, sorry ~Veal 05/04/07

That picture is from an early build of Halo PC before they changed it to have black paint. Its just the normal colored chaingun warthog with a Rocket. Someone should put a picture of the normal black one on there. Also I think I remember seeing a Bungie video from e3 2004 where they were demonstrating new multiplayer things on zanzibar and there was a rocket warthog. Can someone confirm this? Thanks.

Trivia

I'd like to dispute that Mendez trivia on a couple of points.

1. In the book, it says it has a rack of missiles, not three missile tubes.
2. In the book, it says it had Argent V missiles, but the M12A1 LAAV fires standard SPNKr 102mm missiles

Ya that is true, there is a Custom Edition Warthog that has a missile rack (4 missiles), personally to me it seems to fit the description of Mendez's Warthog better.Im Indestructible^{_{Determination that is incorruptible}To win the honor of coming home again}
