The '''M12A1 Warthog Light Anti-Armor Vehicle''', more commonly known as the '''Rocket Warthog''', is a [[United Nations Space Command]] ground vehicle.
The '''M12A1 Light Anti-Armor Vehicle''',{{Ref/Reuse|ENC}}{{Ref/Reuse|manual}}{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}}{{Ref/Reuse|CU}} abbreviated as '''M12A1 LAAV''' and commonly referred to as the '''Rocket Warthog''', is a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] ground vehicle. It is a variant of the [[M12 Force Application Vehicle]].
==Introduction==
It is a variant of the [[Warthog]] series of vehicle, but is by far the least common. It is seen only in ''[[Halo PC]]''. Its position as the UNSC LAAV is usurped by the far more common [[M12G1 Warthog LAAV]] in ''[[Halo 2]]''.  
==Description==
The M12A1 Warthog is exactly the same as the standard [[M12 Warthog LRV]], except for two differences:<br>


1. It has yellow paint stripes lined through the base to distinguish it from the standard M12 Warthog.<br>
==Design details==
2. It is armed with a [[102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret]] on the back seat. The turret can shoot three [[Rocket Launcher|surface-to-surface rockets]] before reloading, but like all projectile weapons, it must be reloaded when the magazine capacity is depleted.  
The M12A1 LAAV is one of the UNSC's anti-armor vehicles, designed to quickly and efficiently defeat lightly armored vehicles. Despite this, it was rarely employed in the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} Unlike other M12 variants, the M12A1 can be differentiated by its appearance; the M12A1 Rocket Warthog is painted in black and has yellow paint stripes lined through the base. Its seats are also yellow and its tires have a darker color tone than those of the standard Warthog.

{{UNSC Vehicles}}
The M12A1 is equipped with a mounted [[M39 rocket turret]]{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}}{{Ref/Reuse|CU}} which fires three [[M19 missile|M19 SC-HE rockets]]{{Ref/Reuse|manual}} and requires four seconds to reload when the magazine is depleted.
 
==Production notes==
In the [[Halo E3 2000 Trailer|E3 2000 ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' trailer]], the featured Warthog sported a cannon that fired missiles like the M12A1 cannon, but looked like ''[[Halo 2]]''<nowiki />'s [[M12G1 Light Anti-Armor Vehicle|M12G1 LAAV's]] [[M68 Gauss Cannon|gauss cannon]].
 
The M12A1 LAAV made its first in-game appearance in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]]''<nowiki/>'s multiplayer mode, and was thus later included in the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' multiplayer component of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''.
 
The Rocket Warthog was intended to be featured in ''[[Halo: Ground Command]]'' as part of an upgrade package for the Warthog vehicle alongside quad-treads from the [[M862 Arctic Warthog]].''<ref name="CU">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/community-update-summer-red-summer-blue ''Halo Waypoint'': Community Update - Summer Red, Summer Blue]</ref>
