The '''M12 Force Application Vehicle''' ('''M12-FAV'''), more commonly known as the '''Warthog''' or simply the '''Hog''', is a [[fast attack vehicle]] serving as the [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC Armed Forces|Armed Forces]]' primary joint light tactical ground vehicle.{{Ref/Reuse|BnetHR}} The M12 Warthog is the most common series within wider [[Warthog]] family of vehicles{{Ref/Reuse|CU}}, and saw service throughout the [[Insurrection]] and [[Human-Covenant War]] until the introduction of the [[M12B Warthog]] by late [[2552]].

The M12 cemented its role as the utility do-everything vehicle; its most ubiquitous models are the [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]] variants, which is equipped with advanced surveillance and a turret-mounted machine gun for a basic defensive capability. The M12 and its predecessors (such as the [[Z-12]]) have been a part of the UNSC's mechanized infantry divisions and armored vehicle divisions since [[2319]],{{Ref/Reuse|WaypointUni}} and is the most publicly recognizable vehicle in their arsenal. By the later stages of the [[Human-Covenant War]], a second chassis variant of the M12 known as the [[M12B Warthog]] entered service with some UNSC units.

Given the Warthog's extensive service life, the vehicle has seen dozens of alterations and produced variants. The turret in the back of the vehicle is removable and replaceable. Although some Warthogs are used solely for transportation, most are armed and have a multi-mission capability{{Ref/Reuse|CU}}, with variants capable of performing armament carrier, utility, command and control (shelter), ambulance, reconnaissance and a variety of other tactical and logistic support roles.{{Ref/Reuse|BnetHR}} Major variations are informally named by their year of production.{{Ref/Reuse|WaypointUni}}

The armament of a given Warthog vehicle typically decides its designation, with the most ubiquitous being the [[M41 Vulcan]] chaingun, seen on [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]] configurations. The armament of an [[M39 rocket turret]], [[M68 Gauss cannon]] or [[M79 rocket launcher]] typically designate a given Warthog as a Light Anti-Armor Vehicle{{Ref|Id=HRManual|[[Halo: Reach Manual|''Halo: Reach'' Manual]]}}, such as the [[M12A1 Rocket Warthog]], [[M12G1 Gauss Warthog]] and [[M12R Rocket Warthog]].{{Ref/Reuse|CU}} The "Flamehog" <ref name="PL">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]''', ''[[Phoenix Logs]] - Flame Warthog''</ref> variant features a mounted flamethrower. Warthogs lacking any armament are sometimes referred to as [[Scout Warthog]]s.{{Ref/Game|H5G}}

Other Warthog variants also exist, one of the more common ones being the [[M831 Troop Transport Warthog]]. Some Warthogs are also created for specialized environments including the [[M862 Arctic Warthog|M862]] and [[M864 Arctic Warthog]]s, [[M868 Tropic Warthog]] and the [[M914 Recovery Vehicle]]. Spartan [[Red Team]] also employed a specialized Warthog, and the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} employed a special Warthog known as the "[[Fireball Warthog]]".{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/unique-unit-fireball-warthog/bp9x3rff66gr|Site=Xbox.com|Page=Unique unit: Fireball Warthog}}
