CharacteristicsEdit

The HH-15 projectile launcher was designed by [[Golan Arms[[ to fire a variety of projectiles, including miniature concussion missiles, proton torpedoes^[5] and armor-piercing shells. Units cost 2000 credits and weighed 12 kilograms.^[2] The HH-15 was older than its Imperial counterpart, the MiniMag PTL, and had inferior targeting sensors. However, many Rebel soldiers became quite adept at aiming the missile launcher manually to acquire a target lock. Further, its rugged design meant it could be operated in extreme climates and conditions,^[5] such as in the freezing temperatures of Hoth. A number of HH-15 launchers were deployed during the Battle of Hoth.^[6] Some models were modified by Rebel vanguards to fire two missiles per pull of the trigger. Such variants had a capacity for 8 missiles rather than 7 to compensate this feature, and were used in a number of battlefields during the Galactic Civil War.^[4]

Behind the scenesEdit

HH-15 launchers appear Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. In the Battlefront video game series, the launcher serves as the Rebel vanguard's primary weapon.
