*The [[M19 Rocket Launcher]] has a "test" button that, when pressed, spins the barrels around. This animation only happens when the player is idle. |

*In the novel ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', [[Hunters]] can actually deflect (that is, redirect) rockets with their [[shields]]. This is highly improbable, as the rocket explodes the moment it comes in contact with anything, unless it is hit at its side. [[John-117]] performed a similar feat with the help of [[Cortana]] during a test on [[Reach]]. |

*In [[Halo 2|''Halo 2'']], if a player drives a[[vehicle]] to the top of the hill in a given map, and another player stands a certain distance away, locks on, drags the aiming reticule away to a certain point, and releases, the rocket will actually fly around the vehicle in a perfect circle until something gets in the way or the hill player moves. Furthermore, if the player in the vehicle gets out, the rocket will stop homing on to the [[vehicle]] and fly off at a random circular trajectory. This [[glitch]] is also seen in [[Halo 3|''Halo 3'']] with the [[missile pod]].

*While your shields are upgraded to [[Overshield]] status, aim at the ground, jump, and fire a rocket at your jumps peak to be given a moderate jump boost. This is because the explosive shock wave of the [[rocket launcher]] causes you to fly a little, but is also only possible because during the short time (around 2.5 seconds) that your overshields charge, you are temporarily invincible. |

*Strangely, the [[M19]] is written as "[[M41 SSR MAV/AW]]" in-game. |
