- For the Pack-a-Punched variant of the PPSh-41, see "The Reaper".
- For the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's successor to the Predator Drone, see Reaper.
The M202 "Grim Reaper" is a multi-shot rocket launcher weapon featured Call of Duty: Black Ops. It is able to fire up to four rockets.
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Campaign
The Grim Reaper only appears in the missions "Numbers" and "Victor Charlie", but it is also used by Frank Woods and Joseph Bowman in "Crash Site".
In campaign only it is possible for the player to fire multiple rockets at once, by simply entering ADS and pressing the sprint/hold breath button. A number next to the sight will rotate, indicating how many rockets will be fired.
Multiplayer
In the multiplayer of Call of Duty: Black Ops, the Grim Reaper can only be obtained from a Care Package (five kill streak, four with Hardline). It carries four shots with eight extra in reserve and disappears after all shots have been fired. If a player dies after they start using this killstreak by firing it, they will not respawn with it. Changing your weapon will discard your Grim Reaper which is the same as the Death Machine and the Valkyrie Rocket.
The Grim Reaper can be locked onto air targets.
The Grim Reaper is semi-automatic and has extremely high damage. The Grim Reaper has incredible accuracy and holds 12 rockets in all. Sleight of Hand is highly suggested for using it as it decreases the chance of being caught off guard and losing the Grim Reaper while in the process of its long reloading time, and the Pro version is extremely helpful by shortening its long ADS time, making it much easier to acquire targets. Flak Jacket is also helpful as it prevents death if a player misfires it up close.

Trivia
- This is the only explosive weapon in the Call of Duty series that has no damage drop in its blast radius.
- The Grim Reaper is not held correctly in third-person, as the launcher's reflex sight is positioned behind the player's head.
- The Grim Reaper's pickup icon is coloured, unlike most weapons.
- If viewed in Theater Mode, the rocket is actually an RPG rocket covered in flames.
- If locked onto an aircraft, only one rocket will track it when fired in quick succession.

- When using the Grim Reaper in multiplayer, the announcers for both teams will not announce its activation until the first shot is fired. The same applies for the Death Machine and Valkyrie Rockets.

- It can be obtained in the zombie map Ascension using the PCs give all console command.
- In the world premiere trailer, the Grim Reaper had a different reticle.
