Rocket
The standard explosive rocket, fired from the Rocket Launcher. A reliable mid-to-late game raiding tool for punching through stone and sheet metal.
How Much Damage Does It Do?
A Rocket doesn't have one fixed damage number against structures — the effective damage changes depending on what it's hitting, since stone, wood, metal and HQM each resist explosives differently. For the exact count you need against a specific wall, door or vehicle, check the raid chart or run it through the raid calculator.
