Main article: M41 SPNKr

SPNKr EM is an improved variant of the standard M41 SPNKr, capable of carrying and firing four rockets per magazine. The rockets are also capable of tracking both air and ground vehicles.[4] Design-wise, it retains the standard M41 SPNKr's launching tube, but recolors it to a predominantly black color broken up by olive green and red stripes.[5]

Usage[edit]

In late 2558, Spartan-IVs serving aboard the UNSC Infinity trained with the SPNKr EM in War Games simulations.[5]

It is a power weapon, which fires slow-moving rockets that deal an incredible amount of damage upon detonation, with a wide area of effect. The Rocket Launcher is one of the most powerful weapons in the game, and to compensate, it has a small magazine size, slow reload speed and ammo is generally very rare.
