==Overview==
The Gungoose embodies the archetypal [[Wikipedia:All-terrain vehicle|All-terrain vehicle]]; it's small, fast and used to traverse all types of terrain. However, unlike a regular ATV, the Gungoose is armed.

===Unlock and acquisition requirements===
In most ''Halo'' games, the Gungoose can simply be found either on certain [[Multiplayer]] maps or in certain [[Campaign]] missions and doesn't need to be unlocked.

====''Halo 5: Guardians''====
In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', the Gungoose can be found on some [[Matchmaking|Arena]] multiplayer maps.{{Ref/Game|H5G|multiplayer|Id=H5GMP}}

However, it can be acquired through the [[Requisition system|Requisition (REQ) system]] for the gamemode [[Warzone]]. To begin receiving the Gungoose regularly in REQ packs, one must unlock the certification. Something that can be acquired randomly from any type of pack.{{Ref/Game|H5G|requisition system}}{{Ref/Game|H5G|REQ card|Detail=Mongoose}}

===Counterparts===
For the Covenant, the [[Ghost]] is a near direct counterpart to the Gungoose. The biggest differences are that the Ghost is single seat and has a booster.

The UNSC also has other vehicles that fill similar roles. The [[Jackrabbit]] of ''Halo Wars 2'' with the weapon upgrade, performs similarly to the Gungoose.

==Gameplay==
===First-person shooters===
{{Main|First-person shooter}}
The Gungoose is small and agile, and it can be used to get places fast and move one or two people. The Gungoose like other vehicles can be [[Boarding (gameplay mechanic)|hijacked]] as well. The passenger of the Gungoose can fire most types of weapons from their position, save for detached turrets or dual-wielded weapons.

====Advantages====
*Smaller frame makes it harder to hit.
**This smaller frame allows one to traverse through smaller areas and under some types of vehicles.
*Quite fast.
====Disadvantages====
*Weapon aim is mostly based on front end positioning.
*Smaller frame means the driver and passenger are very exposed to small arms fire.

==Evolution==
===Changes from ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' to ''Halo 5: Guardians''===
*The design has changed completely, with most differences found in the rear bumper area.
*The Gungoose was made slightly longer.
*The sitting position of the passenger has been changed, though this doesn't remove the passenger's ability to fire forward.
*The weapons the driver fires are different, with the ''Halo 5: Guardians'' version firing grenades.

==Medals==
The Gungoose also shares a number of other medals with other vehicles, such as the [[Splatter]] medal and [[Wheelman]] medal.

==Production notes==
The M274M "Gungoose" variant was originally to be featured in ''Halo 2'', but was cut;{{Ref|RTX 2014}} the vehicle was included years later in the remastered multiplayer component of ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''.
