Designed to replace Covenant War-era designs, the M80 consists of three modules: a central fire control system with integral sensor package and two detachable launcher pods with three ammo cells each. Each cell features an internal reloading mechanism and anti-blast safety features to mitigate injury to the user in the event of damage to the rockets contained within. Relatively light and self-contained, the M80 can be fitted to any vehicle or structure compatible with the older [[M79 rocket launcher|M79 Multiple Launch Rocket System]].<ref name="universe"/> The M80 is notably mounted on the [[M12R Rocket Warthog|Rocket Warthog]].<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians Official Game Guide]] (Collector's Edition)''', ''page 271''</ref>
