The Rocket Launcher is a weapon from GTA I, GTA II, GTA III, GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, GTA Liberty City Stories, GTA Vice City Stories, and GTA IV. In GTA III, the rocket launcher resembles a US Army M72 LAW rocket launcher with a few aesthetic differences (the weapon is held by a handle on the bottom and fired through a scope, something the M72 LAW lacks in real life). In GTA Vice City, GTA Vice City Stories, GTA San Andreas and GTA IV, the rocket launcher resembles a Russian RPG-7 portable anti-tank missile launcher, although the VCS rendition lacks a warhead in the tube and the GTA IV rendition is not fitted with the PGO-7 optical sight usually seen on the launchers.
The rocket launcher is an extremely powerful weapon, capable of destroying almost everything. The advantages of this weapon are its power and range, with its blast being capable of inflicting heavy damage from several meters away. The warhead self-destructs after traveling a distance, limiting it's range. The disadvantages are slow aiming and the propensity to seriously damage one's own health by accidentally hitting a nearby object.
Locations
GTA III
- Rockford - Available to buy from Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus after completion of Arms Shortage ($25,000).
- Cedar Grove - On the west side of the roof of the large pink house at the west end of The Homes (closest to Cochrane Dam). To get this weapon icon, wedge an Ambulance under the lowest part of the roof on the east side of the house, climb the Ambulance then to the roof, then go west along the south side of the roof to reach it.
GTA Vice City
- Phil's Place - The weapon is available for purchase ($8,000) here, after completion of the Boomshine Saigon mission.
- Hooker Inn - Located in the swimming pool, directly after the entrance arch.
GTA San Andreas
- Spawns on roof of a skyscraper in Los Santos.
- Inside Mike Toreno's ranch in Tierra Robada after completing Vertical Bird.
GTA Liberty City Stories
- Can be bought from Phil Cassidy's Fully Cocked Gun Shop after completing False Idols.
- Spawns at each safehouse after collecting 90 hidden packages.
GTA Vice City Stories
- Can be bought from the Ocean Beach Ammunation.
GTA IV
The Rocket Launcher can be purchased at the back-alley gun shops for the staggering amount of $15,000 and each rocket will cost $5,000. The Rocket Launcher cannot be obtained from Little Jacob.
- Liberty - Can be found on a large boulder in the water north of Northwood. This is the easiest RPG pickup in the city.
- Castle Gardens - Can be found in an alcove on the southeastern partition of the construction site seen in the mission Deconstruction for Beginners. The RPG is inside an alcove facing the water, and can only be reached by boat.
- Alderney City - Can be found on the roof of the Kakagawa building near AutoEroticar. There is no roof access from the street, so a helicopter is needed.
