Tips
- Focus near the feet for a certain chance of hitting your target. Use the neighboring range.
- Use this weapon to severely damage heavily armored players and finish them off with ease.
Counters
- Use a Sniper to pick the user off.
- If the you are targeted, move away from the rocket and try to steer tightly around objects, this way, there will be a chance for the rocket to hit an object, instead of you.

Trivia
- This is a new rentable weapon added in update 9.4.0. alongside the Exterminator.
- It seems to be a hybrid between the real life FIM-92 Stinger SAM Missile Launcher , and the SMAW Rocket Launcher, due to it having an attachable launch tube in the back.
- Despite it is used to take down aircraft, it is used like a regular missile launcher and targets players instead.( even more unusual is that in real life , the stinger would need a heat signature to lock on to an enemy aircraft while the human body's heat would be low enough to allow the missile to just not lock on)
- Also it holds 6 missiles, even though the real life version only holds 1 missile.
- It is the first homing weapon in the game.
- It is not rentable for iOS.
- The original idea came from the user TheMCGamer in the thread New Update Ideas, by Kidsview.
