The Bazooka[1] is an object that appears in Shadow the Hedgehog. It is a cannon-type weapon usable by both enemies and the player.
Description
The Bazooka is a long, tube-shaped gray weapon with a dark gray barrel opening and rear, a grip on the bottom, and a fixed, square-shaped, digital front sight to provide extra accuracy while aiming. It also has a yellow stripe around the barrel and an instrument pad on one side. As per its design, the Bazooka can fire powerful projectiles.
Overview

In gameplay, the Bazookas can only be found in certain Stages. They can be wielded by GUN Soldiers who will use them against the player.
Bazookas can be dropped by defeated GUN Soldiers that wield them or released from breakable Containers. Touching one will make the playable character pick it up automatically, and pressing

(whether on the ground or in mid-air) while using the crosshair to aim will fire it. As a cannon, the Bazooka can eliminate surrounding obstacles and enemies with an explosion from its short-ranged missiles, which will fly indefinitely if they do not hit anything. Rather powerful, it is one of the most efficient weapons in the game, but the speed of its shots is low. A Bazooka has a total of six shots, and once those run out, it becomes useless. However, it can be reloaded with another six shots by picking up another Bazooka.
