==Overview==
The '''Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle''', more commonly identified as the '''Ghost''' by the [[UNSC]], is a standard reconnaissance and rapid attack vehicle in service with various [[Covenant remnants|Covenant remnant factions]].<ref name="fodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-designs-of-the-times '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Designs of the Times'']</ref>
=== Design details ===
Free from the sacrifical needs of the [[San'Shyuum]], the ''Karo'wark''-pattern Scout Bike's design focuses more on driver survivability, integrated with the latest [[Boosted gravity propulsion drive|boosted-gravity drive]] components. With an internal [[fuel cell]] and reinforced shielding, the Karo'wark-pattern Ghost offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost]].{{Ref/Reuse|fodder}} The ''Karo'wark''{{'}}s [[design pattern]] is a "compromise" design, employed by several [[Sangheili]] factions during the [[Blooding Years|civil war]] on [[Sanghelios]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


===Variants===
==Specifications==
* '''Sword Ghost''': The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted ''Karo'wark''-pattern Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
===Design details===
* '''Ghost Ultra''': Ultra Ghosts are next-generation, silver-painted ''Karo'wark''-pattern Ghosts with even greater armor and more powerful explosive plasma cannons than the Sword Ghost. Ghost Ultras are exclusively produced by the independent Sangheili colony of [[Whispering Trees]].{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
The Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle features a sleek biomimetic carapace and is integrated with the latest [[Boosted gravity propulsion drive|boosted-gravity drive]] components. This along with other improvements means the Type-54 RAV offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older [[Type-32 Rapid Attack Vehicle]].<ref name="fodder"/>
* '''Temple Ghost''': Driven by veteran [[Sangheili Zealot|Zealots]] who have mastered their impetuous natures, the Temple Ghost, a rare treasure worth its weight in lesser warriors, is a Masterwork Ghost with hardened armor, improved handling, and plasma cannons that can be fired while boosting.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
==Variants==
* '''Warzone Ghost''': The Warzone Ghost is a variant of the Ghost used by enemy AI in [[War Games]] simulations.
*'''Sword Ghost''': The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted T-54 Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.<ref name="H5G"/>

* The Ghost, like its ''Halo 4'' counterpart, once again has a limited amount of time to boost before it has to recharge. In addition to the base model there are also three variants: the Sword Ghost, Ultra Ghost, and Temple Ghost.
* Handling and maneuverability have been vastly improved.
* Plasma cannons' projectile velocity and damage have been increased to compensate for Halo 5's enhanced mobility.
* The Ghost's side engines are its weakpoints; once exposed, if shot there, it will take damage much faster.
