<center>''Were you looking for [[Brute Ultra]]s?''
</center>

The '''Captain Ultra''' is the third highest attainable [[rank]] a [[Brute]] can achieve<ref>[[Bungie.net]]</ref>, next to Honor Guards and [[Brute_Chieftain|Chieftains]]. They seem to be the Jiralhanae equivalent to a [[Lieutenant Colonel]] or [[Commander]] (with Brute Shipmasters being equivalent to [[Captain (Navy)|Naval Captains]]) and can command larger packs than their lesser ranks.

==Description==
Captain Ultras wear cyan [[Jiralhanae power armor]], which signifies higher rank than the gold [[Brute Captain Major]]s.<ref>''[[Halo 3]] the Official Guide'' pg 116 under "Thunderstorm"</ref> They are stronger and more experienced than other Brute infantry and Captain ranks.
==Combat Behavior==
Captain Ultras are very strong opponents. They can take multiple hits from any non-explosive weapon to kill them. The best alternative to an explosive or powerful weapon for these Brutes is the [[Battle Rifle]] to the head, which allows the player to hit them from a distance and kill them with few shots. A single [[Plasma Grenade]] can kill them along with a [[Spike Grenade]], provided they detonate nearby each other. Ultras are rare in lower difficulties but more common on [[Heroic]] and [[Legendary]] difficulties. The [[Plasma Pistol]]'s overcharge shot can come in handy as well to take out their shields. They are generally seen leading lesser Brutes, [[Grunts]], and [[Jackals]] into battle.

==Trivia==
*Despite possessing much stronger shields than the [[Brute Captain|Captain Regulars]], and slightly stronger than the [[Brute Captain Major|Captain Majors]], they are still a bit below those of a [[Sangheili Major]]: in fact, on the [[Normal]] difficulty, a single shot from a [[Beam Rifle]] will destroy the Power Armor of an Ultra Captain, but won't completely drain the shield of a Major.
*Interestingly, neither a Captain Ultra, nor any other kind of [[Brute]] Captain, has ever been seen manning a [[Wraith]] or a [[Brute Prowler|Prowler]]. Also, the only way to make them drive a [[Chopper]] is to let yours be [[hijack]]ed.
