The '''XM510 Multishot Grenade Launcher''' is a semi-automatic [[grenade launcher]] used by the [[United Nations Space Command]] armed forces.{{Ref/Book|Id=Halo Wars OSG|Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Page=35}}
The '''XM510 Multishot Grenade Launcher''' was a shoulder-fired, semi-automatic [[grenade launcher]] used by the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. <ref name="Halo Wars OSG">'''[[Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide]]''', ''page 35''</ref> The XM510 saw use throughout the early years of the conflict in the [[Outer Colonies]].


==Overview==
==Trivia==
===Design details===
*A Grenadier upgrade for the [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]] in ''[[Halo Wars]]'' adds a Marine equipped with an XM510 in the passenger seat. This enhancement improves the attack strength of the vehicle. <ref name="Halo Wars OSG"/>
The XM510 is a shoulder-fired, semi-automatic grenade launcher. The weapon features a revolving swing out cylinder, from which grenades can be loaded. The weapon is additionally equipped with a [[telescopic sight]] and a foregrip.{{Ref/Game|Id=HW1|HW|XM510 in-game model}}
*The ''[[Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Official Strategy Guide]]'' for the game mistakenly refers to the "[[XM511 Heavy Grenade Launcher]]" as the "XM510" in a caption describing the weapon mounted on the [[M9 Main Anti-Air Tank|M9 Wolverine tank]]. <ref>'''[[Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide]]''', ''page 44''</ref>
 
*The XM510's design is based directly off of the [[Wikipedia:South Africa|South African]]-built [[Wikipedia:Milkor MGL|Milkor MGL Mk.1]] and the later M32 MGL variant used by the [[Wikipedia:United States Marine Corps|United States Marine Corps]]. The vertical foregrip has similarities to the [[United Kingdom|British]]-designed [[Wikipedia:ARWEN 37|ARWEN 37]] non-lethal riot control device.
==Operational history==
The XM510 was employed by [[UNSC Marine Corps]] forces during the [[Massacre of the Outer Colonies|early years]] of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. In [[2531]], Marine forces attached to {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} deployed with the weapon in the [[Harvest campaign]], [[Battle for Arcadia]] and [[Battle of Trove]].{{Ref/Reuse|HW1}} Marines armed with the XM510 were regularly employed as passengers in [[Warthog]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Halo Wars OSG}}
 
==Gameplay==
===''Halo Wars''===
The XM510 appears in ''[[Halo Wars]]'', as the second upgrade available for the [[Warthog]]]. When unlocked, the Grenadier upgrade adds a single Marine armed with an XM510 to the vehicle's passenger seat, boosting offensive power slightly.
 
==Production notes==
The XM510's design is based directly off of the [[Wikipedia:South Africa|South African]]-built [[Wikipedia:Milkor MGL|Milkor MGL Mk.1]] and the later M32 MGL variant used by the [[Wikipedia:United States Marine Corps|United States Marine Corps]]. Concept art for the [[M319 grenade launcher]] produced by [[Isaac Hannaford]] for ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' initially explored a [[M319 grenade launcher#Production notes|similar design]] of multiple grenade launcher, though the design was eventually scaled back to the final game's break-action design.
 
The ''[[Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Official Strategy Guide]]'' for ''Halo Wars'' mistakenly refers to the "[[XM511 Heavy Grenade Launcher]]" as the "XM510" in a caption describing the weapon mounted on the [[M9 Wolverine]].{{Ref/Book|Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Page=44}}
