}} The HEV Mk 51 features high explosive splash damage along with a large lethal radius, making the need for a direct hit on an enemy not necessary unless the opponent is in very close proximity.
Unlike grenade launchers such as S-41 GL with fire grenades in an arc, the HEV Mk 51 fires in a straight path, making long-range shots possible, potentially making the the HEV an effective counter-sniper weapon. However, the weapon only features iron sights with no magnification while aiming.
The HEV Mk 51 fires a single rocket at a time, and initially has no reseerve ammo (however with the Boombastic skill, its ammo capacity can be upgraded to a total of 3 rockets). It features fairly slow reload at almost a second, which exacerbates the HEV's one rocket capacity.

Campaign[]
- The HEV Mk 51 is used in the mission Interception, where Bull hands it to Phoenix who uses it to shoot down the WLA helicopter escaping with the package.
Trivia[]
The HEV Mk 51 had its damage decreased in an update by Gameloft, making it less popular among players.
- The HEV appears to be capable of firing guided surface-to-air missiles, as seen in the mission Interception, but this feature is not available in multiplayer.
