[[Image:SicaranArcus.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sicaran Arcus Tank with twin Arcus Launchers]].
The '''Arcus Launcher''' are a type of advanced [[Missile Launcher]] mounted on [[Space Marine]] [[Sicaran Arcus]] artillery tanks during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].
The Arcus launcher is based upon the rotary missile launcher developed for the [[Xiphon|Xiphon strike fighter]], however the greater size of the mounting on the [[Sicaran]] hull allows for a more complex feed mechanism and the employment of multiple warhead types. Overtime, the advanced Arcus Launchers have broken down and in the [[41st Millennium]] Sicaran Arcus tanks are commonly equipped with more basic rotary missile systems.{{Fn|1}}
