The most analogous vehicle to the Hornet is the Falcon from ''[[Halo: Reach]]''. It acts as the mainline UNSC air that game as well and features dual gunner seats. In-game versions can carry more passengers and some have a pilot-controlled main gun. ''[[Halo 4]]'' also brings in the Pelican, which has two exposed side seats.
