In ''Halo 3'', sentinel launchers can be found in the campaign levels ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]'' and ''[[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]''. In addition to being allied with [[John-117]], they are also more durable and release Aggressors at a quicker rate than those in ''Halo 2''. In addition, the hatch closes immediately after the Aggressor is released to prevent weapon fire from getting into the launcher, although this can be bypassed by throwing a grenade before it closes.<ref name="ark"/><ref name="04B"/> | In ''Halo 3'', sentinel launchers can be found in the campaign levels ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]'' and ''[[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]''.

*With the [[M41 SSR MAV/AW|Rocket Launcher]], you can lock onto Sentinel launchers as if they were vehicles. | |||
*In [[Sacred Icon]], there are many destroyed Sentinel launchers found throughout the level. Despite appearing destroyed, these launchers can be destroyed again(with the armored cover falling out). This is easily seen in the gondola room where, after pressing the holo-panel, all the Sentinel launchers are destroyed, including the ones that are already destroyed. | |||
