Type-26BZ Banshee
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
This article is about the "Heretic" Banshee introduced in Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer. For other Banshee variants, see here.
The Type-26BZ Ground Support Aircraft (T-26BZ GSA), more commonly known as the Heretic Banshee, is a variant of the Type-26 Banshee commonly employed in Covenant service as a standard aircraft.[1] ContentsOverview[edit]Specifications[edit]
The Type-26BZ is a specialised "ordained" Banshee built upon the frame of the standard Type-26B Banshee. Like its Type-26AZ counterpart, it features brown-orange panelling and exposed mechanisms, alongside a series of glowing lights not present on the regular Type-26B. The Type-26BZ is otherwise seemingly near-identical in function to standard Type-26B Banshees. Usage[edit]The Type-26BZ was the chosen Banshee model of the forces under Loka 'Bandolee, a Sangheili warrior assigned to join Sesa 'Refumee's expedition to the Threshold gas mine.[1] Production notes[edit]The Type-26BZ Banshee is the "heretic" Banshee featured in the multiplayer component of Halo 2: Anniversary - the heretic Banshee seen in the game's campaign mode is the Type-26AZ Banshee. The vehicle behaves identically in-game to the standard Banshee. The design was not given a formal designation difference until a 2015 Halo Waypoint universe entry.[1] Trivia[edit]
