M12A1 Rocket Warthog
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Vehicle Infobox The M12A1 Light Anti-Armor Vehicle[1], abbreviated as M12A1 LAAV and commonly referred to as the Rocket Warthog, is a UNSC ground vehicle. It is a variant of the M12 Force Application Vehicle and features a mounted 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret.
Design details
The M12A1 LAAV is one of the UNSC's few anti-armor vehicle, designed to quickly and efficiently defeat lightly armored vehicles. Unlike all other M12 variants, the M12A1 can be differentiated by its appearance; the M12A1 Rocket Warthog is painted in black and has yellow paint stripes lined through the base. Its seats are also yellow and its tires have a darker color tone than those of the standard Warthog.
The M12A1 is equipped with a mounted 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret which fires three 102mm rocket projectiles and requires four seconds to reload when the magazine is depleted. The rocket warthog and really blow things up! Even better then the normal one!
Appearances
In the E3 2000 Halo: Combat Evolved trailer, the featured Warthog sported a cannon that fired missiles like the M12A1 cannon, but looked like Halo 2's M12G1 LAAV's gauss cannon.
The M12A1 LAAV made its first in-game appearance in Halo PC's multiplayer mode.
