The M12G1 LAAV is one of the UNSC's anti-armor vehicles. It is primarily designed to quickly and efficiently defeat lightly armored vehicles such as the [[Type-25 Chopper]] and [[Type-32 Ghost]], but can also be a threat to [[Type-26 Wraith]]s. The Gauss Warthog is almost exactly the same in every detail to the [[M12 Chaingun Warthog]] except that it is equipped with a mounted M68 Gauss Cannon, which fires a 25mm hypersonic projectile by means of magnetic acceleration. It takes about a half a second to recharge between cannon shots. Although it appears more rarely than the standard Warthog, its capabilities make it a fearsome, agile and powerful vehicle to use. | The M12G1 LAAV is one of the UNSC's anti-armor vehicles.
