Template:New Content Template:Weapon Infobox The M363 Remote Projectile Detonator, colloquially known as the sticky detonator, is a single-shot handheld explosive weapon. It is manufactured by Acheron Security and is used by the UNSC Defense Force.[1]
Overview
Sized like an ordinary sidearm, the weapon fires a magnetic explosive shaped charge which can be manually detonated by the operator. Although formerly manufactured in small numbers, the weapon has become ubiquitous in the years following the Human-Covenant War due to its compact size and ease of transportability.[2] The weapon has a fold-out screen on the left side which shows a motion tracker display from the view of the fired projectile.[3] Once fired, the projectile activates a strobe light indicating its status.[4]
Trivia
The weapon first appeared in Halo 4's Awakening announcement trailer, in which John-117 grabs an RPD floating in zero gravity and uses it to blow a piece of debris out of his way while escaping the exploding wreckage of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn.
