The '''Direct Hit''' is an unlockable [[Weapons#soldierprimary|primary weapon]] for the [[Soldier]]. It is a high-tech {{botignore|rocket launcher}} with a slimmer barrel and a smaller exhaust port, outfitted with a cosmetic scope. The [[Mann Co.]] logo is imprinted on the side.

Unlike the default [[Rocket Launcher]], the Direct Hit's [[projectile]] travels at a rate of 1980 [[Hammer units]] per second – roughly 84 mph – 80% faster than normal rockets. Additionally, the rockets inflict 25% more damage on their target than conventional rockets. For precision marksmen, the Direct Hit also scores [[Critical hits#Mini-crits|mini-crit]]s on any airborne target that was  propelled into the air by an explosion, adding additional damage and negating damage fall-off.  
+
Compared to rockets from the default [[Rocket Launcher]], the Direct Hit's [[projectiles]] travel 80% faster, at a rate of 1980 [[Hammer unit]]s per second (135 km/h or 84 mph), and inflict 25% more damage to their target. For precision marksmen, the Direct Hit also scores [[Critical hits#Mini-crits|Mini-Crits]] on airborne targets propelled into the air by explosions or [[Pyro]]s using a charge from the [[Thermal Thruster]], adding additional damage and negating [[Damage#Distance modifier|damage falloff]].
  
−
The splash area of the Direct Hit's shots is reduced to 30%, placing emphasis on players needing to score "direct hits" on enemies in order to effectively damage them. The radius of the splash zone is roughly 40 Hammer units, the width of an operational [[Teleporter]]. This tightened splash radius only applies to enemies however, as the radius is extended to equal the default Rocket Launcher's rockets while [[Jumping#Rocket jump|rocket jumping]].

The splash radius of the Direct Hit's shots is reduced to 30%, forcing players to score "direct hits" on enemies in order to damage them. The radius of the splash zone is roughly 44 [[Hammer unit]]s, the width of an operational [[Teleporters|Teleporter]]. This tightened splash radius and increased damage only applies to enemies; the explosion acts like a default rocket to the Soldier who fired it, sharing the same radius and damage when calculating self-damage, allowing the user to [[rocket jump]] as normal.

“
A high precision version of the standard-issue rocket launcher, the Direct Hit has been engineered from the ground up for Soldiers who have mastered the art of shooting at their targets instead of vaguely near them.
— Direct Hit publicity blurb
 ”

The Direct Hit is an unlockable primary weapon for the Soldier. It is a high-tech rocket launcher with a slim barrel and small exhaust port, outfitted with a cosmetic scope imprinted with the Mann Co. logo on the left side.

Compared to rockets from the default Rocket Launcher, the Direct Hit's projectiles travel 80% faster, at a rate of 1980 Hammer units per second (135 km/h or 84 mph), and inflict 25% more damage to their target. For precision marksmen, the Direct Hit also scores Mini-Crits on airborne targets propelled into the air by explosions or Pyros using a charge from the Thermal Thruster, adding additional damage and negating damage falloff.

The splash radius of the Direct Hit's shots is reduced to 30%, forcing players to score "direct hits" on enemies in order to damage them. The radius of the splash zone is roughly 44 Hammer units, the width of an operational Teleporter. This tightened splash radius and increased damage only applies to enemies; the explosion acts like a default rocket to the Soldier who fired it, sharing the same radius and damage when calculating self-damage, allowing the user to rocket jump as normal.

The Direct Hit is automatically given to any player who obtains 11 Soldier achievements.
