The Honest John surface-to-surface ballistic missile is perhaps the crown jewel of Scavenger weaponry. Developed in the 1960's, it is ancient among weapons and is treated with mythical awe. According to recovered archives, many missiles were manufactured and saw use by many nations until they were phased out in the 1990's, only to infamously end up in the hands of the Brotherhood of Nod who utilized them throughout the First Tiberian War. While all of them were lost to history, a famed archaeologist known only as The Safekeeper was able to uncover the aforementioned archives which contained schematics of the weapon, among others. Using current materials, only the most skilled mechanics are able to rebuild them, as well as building specialized trucks used to carry and launch them on the go. As devastating as they are against even the sturdiest of structures, they can be easily shot down by anti-air defenses and the trucks carrying them are rather slow and poorly armored, requiring protection from other units.
