Rocket Warthog redirects here. For the Halo: Reach Rocket Warthog, see M12R Light Anti-Armor Vehicle.

Template:Ship 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.

Description

The M12A1 Warthog is almost exactly the same as the standard M12 LRV, except for a few differences:

  1. It has yellow paint stripes lined through the base, to distinguish it from the standard M12 Warthog. It is also painted black, different from the normal color of a normal Warthog, which is a metallic olive. The seats are also yellow.
  2. It is armed with a 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret[1] on the back seat. The turret can fire three surface-to-surface rockets before reloading. Like all projectile weapons, it must be reloaded when the magazine is depleted. The reloading process takes about four seconds, similar to the reload time of a Scorpion tank in Halo: Combat Evolved.
  3. The tires are a darker color than those of the standard Warthog.

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.
