'''Sentinel Launchers''' are small armor-covered devices built into the walls of some [[Forerunner]] facilities. They have appeared in [[Halo 2]] and [[Halo 3]]. When hostile entities, such as [[Flood]], are detected in the immediate area, they open their cover and dispense [[Sentinels]]. When a Sentinel is about to be dispensed, the launcher will make a noise that increases in pitch until the Sentinel is dispensed. | |||
Most [[Sentinel]]s seen being dispensed are the normal silver ones, though a few dispense the gold, [[Major Sentinel|shielded Majors]]. One way to destroy a launcher is to attack it when the armored cover opens to release a [[Sentinel]]. It is also possible to destroy a closed dispenser by sticking a [[Plasma Grenade]] on its cover and also by hitting it with a melee attack. However, the melee attack will drop your shields, so it's most useful to melee the Launchers when there are no other enemies around. | Most [[Sentinel]]s seen being dispensed are the normal silver ones, though a few dispense the gold, [[Major Sentinel|shielded Majors]].
