The M12 Light Anti Aircraft Vehicle is only seen on [[Halo PC]]. It shoots rockets instead of the machine gun shots. It can shoot three before reloading, but like all projectile weapons, can be reloaded before the magazine capacity is depleted. The rocket Warthog is black in colour with yellow stripes lined through the base.

In [[Halo 2]], the Anti Aircraft Warthog does not make an appearance, but there is another variant of the Warthog. Its turret is a [[Gauss Cannon]] that acts like a miniature [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] and fires fast-moving projectiles, takes about a half of a second to reload and has unlimited ammunition like all vehicle-mounted weapons systems.
In Halo: The Fall of Reach, a machinegun variant with 50mm shells is mentioned.

Before the launch of Halo 2, it was hinted by Bungie that certain types of warthogs would also make it in the game: a moon variant, cargo variant, jungle variant, and snow variant.


(The Warthog in Halo 2 is much more maneuverable than in Halo with less sliding and an E-brake (left trigger) for easier stopping and tighter turns. It also has a horn (right trigger) which can be used for various reasons)
