The Eklon'dal Workshop Mortar Tank is a modified Muz-pattern Wraith used by the Banished.[1]
Overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
- Main article: Muz-pattern Wraith
The Wraith designs built by the Eklon War-Forges are heavily modified Muz-pattern designs originally employed by the Covenant empire. They feature additional armor plating and spikes, tabbed corners on new plates, energy shielding, raw metals and "war paint" to reflect the Banished's aggressive mentality in comparison to older Covenant Wraiths.[3]
Armaments[edit]
Eklon'dal Workshop Wraiths are armed with a heavy plasma mortar and twin plasma cannons for use against ground and air targets. The plasma cannons are hidden underneath the armor. The mortar can be upgraded to a scorch mortar on select vehicles.[3][1]
Variants[edit]
- Wraith Invader: An APC variant of the Wraith.[5]
- Ironclad Wraith: A variant of Wraith equipped with ramming spikes and upgraded armor.[5]
- Terror Wraith: A variant of Wraith equipped with an Infusion gel-firing plasma mortar.[5]

Development history[edit]
The Eklon'dal Workshop Mortar Tank was one of the first Banished Wraiths ever produced.[1] The Foundry's garage and its kit assembly line allows Banished officers to requisition Eklon'dal Workshop Wraiths.[4]
Operational history[edit]
In March 2559 the Banished used Eklon'dal Workshop Wraiths against the crew of the UNSC Spirit of Fire on Installation 00.[2] In June 2559 stolen Wraiths were used by the Flood against the Banished during the Outbreak on Installation 00.[6] In October 2559 the Clan of the Long Shields used Wraiths against the Dhas Bhasvod's Covenant and Keepers of the One Freedom during the Battle of Epsilon Clarion.[7]
