The Rocket Cannon[1] is a rocket launcher used by the HECU along the Black Mesa Transit System.
Contents
Overview[edit]
The Rocket Cannon is used by the HECU in chokepoints around the Black Mesa Research Facility, mostly in the Transit System. It resembles the real-world M202A1 FLASH. It fires powerful rockets that can cause significant damage if it makes a direct impact on the target, as well as splash damage, so one should try to avoid being near a wall when seeing a Rocket Cannon firing.
Tactics[edit]
Enemies using the Rocket Cannon are easy to kill, as they are immobile while using the weapon. A Grenade or Submachine Gun grenade is enough to kill the weapon controller in one shot.
Unlike the Tripod-Mounted Heavy Machine Gun, it is possible and easy to avoid projectiles fired by the Rocket Cannon, as it makes a loud sound when firing and its rockets are slow enough to be avoided by ducking.
Trivia[edit]
The Rocket Cannon fires the same rockets as that of the RPG; the RPG laser can turn the Rocket Cannon rockets back at it.
