"Pelican" is the name applied to a series of dropships operated by the UNSC Marine Corps, the UNSC Navy, and the civilian security forces. Beginning service before 2501,[1][2] most Pelicans are equipped with 70mm chain guns and rockets in their wings. Their payload capacities include a Warthog, Scorpion tank, troop deployment pod or Resupply canisters attached to their tails.

- D77-TC Pelican - The UNSC's standard dropship variant operated prior to and during most of 2552.
- D77H-TCI Pelican - A variant of the Pelican, first seen on November, 2552.
- D77C-NMPD Pelican - A Law Enforcement variant used by the NMPD.
- D79-TC Pelican - The UNSC's standard dropship as of 2557, replacing the D77-TC and D77H-TCI models.
