Template:Weapon The 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret is a mounted armament on a Warthog, only seen on Halo PC.

Introduction

The 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret is basically a triple-barreled Rocket Launcher, commonly mounted on the M12A1 Warthog. It gives UNSC personnel a higher degree of anti-armor capacity. This weapon was only available to Halo PC users, and was not available on the Xbox version of Halo: Combat Evolved.

It fires rockets similar to those of the M19 SSM Rocket Launcher, although it can fire 3 rockets before each reload cycle, has no scope, and cannot be carried.

Each reload cycle of the 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret consumes 4 seconds, which is vital in combat situations. Presumably, it has an automatic reload system as the gunner does not have to do anything during the reload cycle. Partial reloads, when only 1 or 2 rockets have been fired, are also available, but will still use up the entire reload cycle - there is no time difference between reloading an empty launcher or a launcher with 1 rocket left.

Its role as the primary anti-armor weapon mounted on UNSC LAAVs is usurped by the more flexible and faster firing Gauss Cannon in Halo 2, which uses similar technology to the Magnetic Accelerator Cannons and eliminates the need for a long reload cycle.

Description

The 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret is painted black, with some sort of motion tracking systems facing the gunner. The 102mm SC-HE Rocket Turret also resembles the M41 LAAG to some extent, but it is mounted with a triple-barreled rocket launcher, which seems loaded with a similar system to the M19 SSM. Can be fired faster depending on how fast you click.
