An Anti-Air Wraith fires on a Hornet.

The Type-52 Anti Aircraft Artillery, often referred to as the Anti-Air Wraith[1] or abbreviated as the Type-52 AAA, is a specialized variant of the Type-25 Wraith tank.

Introduction

The Type-52 Anti Aircraft Artillery is a variant of the mainstream Covenant "Wraith" tank, but differs in its primary armament: while the standard Type-25 model is equipped with a Plasma Mortar which is mainly against slow-moving ground targets, the Type-52 model is equipped with a "rapid fire" dual Fuel Rod Gun-based[2] flak cannon[3] as its main armament, and has high effectiveness against nearby air targets and also ground targets. The Type-52 shares the Type-25's secondary plasma turret, a non-detachable stationary turret emplacement fixed at the midsection of the vehicle that is optionally manned for point defense against "medium to close" range ground targets.

The Type-52 is also distinguished from the Type-25 by its red-bronze color scheme instead of the standard Wraith's purple armor color.

Appearances

The Type-52 Anti Aircraft Artillery saw widespread deployment by the Covenant Loyalists in the occupied Inner Colony worlds of the United Nations Space Command.

Multiple Type-52 vehicles were deployed in the African city of Voi during the Loyalist occupation of Voi in the Second Battle of Earth[4][5][6][7], although all were eventually destroyed in the UNSC counterattack or the Flood invasion of Voi[8]. At least three were deployed against a possible UNSC Hornet threat when the Loyalists secured the Forerunner facility known as the Ark in extragalactic space[9][10]. Template:Spoiler End
