==Design details==
==Design details==
The M12A1 LAAV is one of the UNSC's anti-armor vehicles, designed to quickly and efficiently defeat lightly armored vehicles. Despite this, it was rarely employed in the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} Unlike 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 [[M39 rocket turret]]{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}}{{Ref/Reuse|CU}} which fires three [[M19 missile|M19 SC-HE rockets]]{{Ref/Reuse|manual}} and requires four seconds to reload when the magazine is depleted.

==Appearances==
In the [[Halo E3 2000 Trailer|E3 2000 ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' trailer]], the featured Warthog sported a cannon that fired missiles like the M12A1 cannon, but looked like ''[[Halo 2]]''<nowiki />'s [[M12G1 Light Anti-Armor Vehicle|M12G1 LAAV's]] [[M68 Gauss Cannon|gauss cannon]].

The M12A1 LAAV made its first in-game appearance in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]]''<nowiki/>'s multiplayer mode, and was thus later included in the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' multiplayer component of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''.
