The ''Banta''-class transport is a fairly sizable craft with an enclosed flight deck separated from the main cabin and troop bay by various internal hatches, and they require only a small crew to operate. From the flight deck, the crew can depressurize compartments individually. Its troop bay is large enough to hold at least 300 [[human]] passengers, and it can be accessed externally via loading ramp. ''Banta''-class transports feature at least one airlock to allow other ships to dock and exchange passengers or cargo. Its various interior compartments are connected by passageways and junctions that wind through the ship. Toward the front of the craft is a forward briefing compartment.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS18|HSS|Chapter=18}} The ''Banta''-class also features multiple emergency escape pods.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS13}} Ships of the class are propelled by a trio of engine exhausts that allow it to fly in space, as well as in a [[planet]]'s atmosphere.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS14|HSS|Chapter=14}} | |||

During the [[Battle of Seoba|Battle of]] [[Seoba]] on [[2526#March|March 18, 2526]], a [[United Rebel Front]]-owned ''Banta''-class transport called the ''[[Emmeline]]'' was seized by the [[UNSC]]'s [[Task Force Yama]]. The day after the battle, roughly three hundred [[insurrectionist]] prisoners—including [[General]] [[Harper Garvin]]—were loaded on to the captured vessel to be taken to [[Biko]] for prosecution.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS13}} However, the flight crew installed by the UNSC were actually insurrectionist agents recruited by the turncoat [[Hector Nyeto]]. After a [[Covenant]] [[Bloodstar Flotilla|flotilla]] arrived at Seoba, the ''Emmeline'' caught up with the ''[[Sacred Whisper]]'', an [[intrusion corvette]] and [[Sangheili First Blade officer|First Blade]] [[Tel 'Szatulai]]'s flagship. As the Covenant had come to Seoba to meet with the insurgents, General Garvin intended to organize a deal with 'Szatulai aboard the ''Emmeline''. After the [[Silent Shadow]] [[Sangheili]] dealt with [[Erland Booth|one]] jumpy insurgent who armed a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] in an attempt to get 'Szatulai to recall the Covenant [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience|fleet]] that was [[Battle of Biko|attacking]] [[Biko]], they did make a deal, though Tel 'Szatulai did not intend to honor his half of it. When he left the ''Emmeline'', he took [[Petora Zoyas|an insurrectionist]] with him in order to better communicate with Garvin in the future.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS18}} | During the [[Battle of Seoba|Battle of]] [[Seoba]] on [[2526#March|March 18, 2526]], a [[United Rebel Front]]-owned ''Banta''-class transport called the ''[[Emmeline]]'' was seized by the [[UNSC]]'s [[Task Force Yama]].
