The Corebrette MMS-60 Locust Rocket Launcher is Gunner's primary weapon.
Appearance
The Rocket Launcher is a bulky cylindrical launcher where rockets are fired. On the side it has a small screen, and a couple of handles to hold the launcher. Clips made by rockets inserted into a spinning dish tray are loaded into the launcher's middle section.

Function
The Rocket Launcher can rapidly fire six rockets at once. It lacks the damage and the lock on found on the Missile Launcher, but it compensates with faster rate of fire and projectile speed. Rockets do reasonable damage to vehicles, buildings, and infantry, the latter only with a direct hit or headshot. Even with their improved speed, Rocket Launchers are still not very well suited in infantry clashes.
Trivia
- The warning message found on the sides of the weapon states "Do not point at commanding officer".
