The '''Heat-Seeking Rocket Launcher''' is a handheld [[Weapons in GTA San Andreas|weapon]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. Unlike the [[Rocket Launcher]], the Heat-seeking Rocket Launcher automatically selects the nearest available target. Strangely, when it's on the ground it resembles a Russian SA-7 Grail but when CJ picks it up it turns into an FIM-92A Stinger. When pointed at a vehicle the marker is green. After waiting for 3-5 seconds it turns red and the missile is locked on.
The '''Heat-seeking Rocket Launcher''' is a handheld [[Weapons in GTA San Andreas|weapon]] in [[GTA San Andreas]] which is a targeted version of the [[Rocket Launcher]]. It seems to be based off the ERYX anti-tank missile system in use in European countries, only the ERYX is wire-guided, not heat-guided, and the ERYX has a disposable launch tube, while the Heat Seeking Rocket Launcher doesn't.this heat seeking launcher is somehow related to the [[SAM]] sites located in [[Area 69]] and [[Easter Basin Naval Station]] .

==Trivia==
*[[Hydra]]s also have heat-seeking missiles.
*As it is a heavy weapon, [[Carl Johnson|the player]] is unable to sprint or jump when using the weapon.
*They are employed by the [[NOOSE]] in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], although the player can not access them in any way. It has been speculated that the "heat seeking" rockets are just rocket projectiles spawned and scripted to aim for [[Luis]]'s vehicle, together with officers wielding RPGs to create the effect.
