The Red Rocket is a primary weapon for the Trooper. It is a rocket launcher with a tactical handle and grip covered with a red material skin.
Upon successfully killing someone with this rocket launcher, the weapon's clip will be fully reloaded similar to the Deathblow, allowing you to stay in the fight without having to retreat to reload your rocket launcher.
As a downside, the weapon has a 15% slower reload time and a 25% smaller clip size, bringing the clip size down to 3 rockets.
This weapon is part of the Randomizer weapon pool.

Trivia[]
- A green variant of this weapon exists in the files.[1]
- This weapon is based on the The Cycloptic Carnage, a weapon that was nominated for Team Fortress 2's Advanced Weaponizer Weapons of the Month on May 2013.
- The weapon supposedly uses a scrapped model of the Speed Demon back in 2019.
- On the initial release of A "Heavy" Update, this weapon was accidentally added to the item drop pool, resulting in those who were lucky enough to receive a Strange variant of the item. Initially, equipping it would kick the player from the server, later on, it worked as intended.
- It was later removed from the inventories of all non-developers/contributors who had it.
