LAU-65D/SGM-151 missile pod

The Missile Pod is a special weapon used by the United Nations Space Command.

Introduction
The Missile Pod is a missile-launching weapon. It can hold up to 8 missiles. The missiles are highly explosive and this weapon is capable of tracking down targets.

Operation
It is a missile launcher type weapon and can only carry 8 rounds.

Once picked up the player will appear in third person view. Due to the weapon's weight, the wielder will run at a slower pace. Also, it is said to be fairly harder to aim while in this mode.

The rounds are capable of tracking targets. This weapon will replace the Halo 2 SPNKrs' ability to lock on to vehicles as it was stated by Frankie that the rocket launcher no longer locks on.

Trivia
It is possible that also there is a Covenant version of the turret, the Plasma Turret. In the Et Tu, Brute? ViDoc, a Brute is carrying one.
 * This is one of two current third-person view weapons. The other is the Machinegun Turret.
 * The Missile Pod could possibly be the M19-B SAM Missile Launcher that was used by Alpha Company and Beta Company.
 * By most players in the Halo 3 Beta, it is considered "Underpowered, inaccurate, and weak."
