The Capstone Bloodhound is a rocket launcher in Just Cause 3.

Appearance

It is a manually laser-guided rocket launcher. The middle section of the tube resembles the AT4 anti-tank launcher.

The Rebel drop description says "The Capstone Bloodhound is a portable, infrared homing surface-to-air missile (SAM) launcher that can be rerouted mid-flight by the user to ensure it hits its target. Handy!"

As seen on an official advertisement.

Performance

This weapon projects a red laser as it fires a missile, whose trajectory can be chained by directing the laser. The missile will follow the laser t the best of its ability, but will eventually go out of range and become unresponsive or inadvertently hit other obstacles. Its damage seems to be slightly weaker than a standard explosion from the UVK-13.

The Capstone Bloodhound is best used for precision strikes on weaker targets that many special weapons fail to hit from a fair distance like certain Chaos Objects, as it has enough accuracy to get a clean hit. Otherwise, it is outclassed in destructive power by several other Special Weapons, specifically the Fire Leech.

Locations

After purchasing the EB games exclusive day one edition of Just Cause 3 or its standalone DLC, it becomes available at rebel drop by default.

Trivia

• The Capstone Bloodhound appears to employ Semi-Active Laser Homing (SALH) where a sensor in a missile's nose seeks reflected light from a laser designator pointed at the target for guidance. Although the Bloodhound is designated as a MANPADS (Man-Portable Air Defense System) in-universe, SALH is more often employed by Gravity Bombs and Anti-Tank Guided Missiles, as aircraft are too fast for a laser to properly track.
