The Rocket Jumper is a training primary weapon for the Soldier Class which was released with the Mann-Conomy Update. Its appearance is identical to the Rocket Launcher.
As the first training item, the Rocket Jumper fires completely harmless rockets allowing players to freely practice Rocket jumping techniques. The ammo count is also tripled, giving the user forty extra rockets.

Trivia
- With this weapon equipped, it is possible to survive the Kamikaze taunt of the Equalizer; the player will only suffer fall damage after being launched into the air. This is similar to an early bug that existed when the Gunboats were first implemented.
- Reflected rockets fired from the Rocket Jumper will not deal any damage.
- Exception: A Pyro reflecting a rocket beneath himself (ie. attempting a rocket jump with a deflected rocket), will cause the rocket to deal the normal amount of damage.
- This weapon has some use in legitimate play, as one could quickly reach the front lines or the enemy flag by rocket jumping without having to worry about conserving rockets or taking self-damage. Combined with the Pain Train, it could be possible to quickly capture control points.
- Notably skilled players may also be able to use this weapon with the Shotgun effectively.
- This weapon provides immunity blast damage from the exploding pumpkins in Harvest.
- There is currently a glitch, which sometimes results in triple ammo for other primary weapons in arena, if you switch class while you have the Rocket Jumper equipped, e.g. 36 reserve ammo for the Huntsman.
- This is first weapon to have the same model as the original default weapon.
- This is the only weapon that was released with the Mann-Conomy update that didn't receive a guaranteed crafting blueprint
