M19-B surface-to-air missile launcher: Difference between revisions

The '''M19-B Surface-to-Air Missile Launcher''', commonly shortened to '''M19-B SAM Missile Launcher''', is a heavy ordnance weapon used by the [[UNSC]]. It fires high-powered surface-to-air missiles and was deployed in limited numbers for UNSC ground forces in the [[2540]]'s and early [[2550]]'s. However, they were not widely used, as their counterpart model, the [[M19 SSM Rocket Launcher]], was much more versatile and portable on the field.

This weapon was used by [[SPARTAN-III]] companies [[Alpha Company|Alpha]] and [[Beta Company|Beta]]. It is for the most part ineffective on a [[Covenant Seraph-class starfighter]] but effective against a [[Banshee]].<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]] page 17</ref>

*It is most likely, a variant and type of the M19, due to the same M19-B designation.

* The M19-B, was made for the Rocket Launchers lack of guided missiles and explosive projectiles.

*It is available for use, in the first part of the [[Halo: Custom Edition]] "Custom Map Team" version of the map [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)]].

*The M19-B was originaly going to be in Halo:CE, but was dropped like many other weapons, and was permanently dropped unlike some of the other cut weapons that came back in [[Halo 2]], or [[Halo 3]]. This launcher is available in Campaign and in Multiplayer, but only in Campaign does it have the stand.
