I kill rockets!
The Heavy

The Deflector is a primary weapon used by the Deflector Heavy, Giant Deflector Heavy, Giant Heal-on-Kill Deflector Heavy (Type 1 and 2), and Chief Heal-on-Kill Deflector Heavy in Mann vs. Machine mode. Its model and functionality are identical to those of the Minigun as the deflection attribute is independent of the Deflector. The only difference is the green tracer effect rather than the usual yellow.
