The FIM-92 Stinger,[2] simply known as "Missile Launcher", is a weapon cut from Half-Life 2. It can be found in the playable Half-Life 2 Beta files.

Contents

[edit] Overview

  • Despite firing a rocket, it uses a very different model than the RPG. It is unknown what made this weapon different than the final RPG.
  • It was to be used at least in the map "sniper_039.vmf", set during the Uprising.[1]

[edit] Trivia

  • The RPG ammo is still called "ml_grenade" in the final game ("ml" stands for "Missile Launcher").
  • In the Half-Life 2 files, several texture files for HUD weapon icons can be found, most of which still containing the icons for almost all of the cut weapons. The Stinger is among them.
  • A sound file named "stinger_fire1.wav" and used for the APC missiles can be found in the Half-Life 2 files. It is probably the original FIM-92 Stinger firing sound.
