{{Quote|This is Dropship Victor 93-(static)-Pillar of Autumn. If any-(Static)-need assistance. We are under attack by some new kind of hostile that isn't Covenant. [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]] has been captured by hostiles. We're dug in at a large structure in a swampy area, where we can hold out. Please-(static)- I will set this message to repeat at one minute intervals. Dropship Victor 933, clear!|Unknown pilot broadcasting his last warning of [[The Flood|unknown hostiles]]}}

'''Victor 933''' was a [[United Nations Space Command]] [[D77-TC Pelican Dropship|Pelican]] dropship attached to the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in [[2552]].<ref name="343GS">'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level, ''[[343 Guilty Spark (Level)|343 Guilty Spark]]''</ref>

==Battle of Installation 04==
{{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
When the ''Autumn'' was shot down over [[Installation 04]], Victor 933 escaped intact, and was used by the [[Marines]] of [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]] as transport. It appears however, that the Marines did not take any heavier UNSC weaponry.{{Ref/Reuse|343GS}}

It was sent out with [[Second squad (Pillar of Autumn)|second squad]] and [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]] in hopes of finding a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] weapons cache. A supporting Pelican dropped off [[Fire Team Charlie]] later on. Twelve hours after the last transmission from the Pelican, the [[John-117|Master Chief]] dropped into the swamp aboard [[Echo 419]] and found the wreckage of Victor 933. Apparently, the Pelican had been ambushed on takeoff and crashed. Victor 933's crew then apparently escaped the wreck and the [[Flood|unknown hostiles]] that had downed the Pelican, but were most likely overrun.<ref name="jaipex">'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''pages 199-200''</ref>

The recording of the distress signal was a short-wave signal. Due to the nature of the emergency, the Pelican's radio may have been damaged, as otherwise it would have contacted Alpha Base for reinforcements.

==Trivia==
*In earlier builds of Halo: Combat Evolved, the emergency transmission by ''V933'' emits significantly less static, allowing for most of the transmission's dialogue to be heard in full.
*In the level ''[[The Silent Cartographer]]'', ''V933'' doubles as the crashed ''[[Bravo 022]]'' - this is due to the map having used the same Pelican model.
*On the map [[Valhalla]], the Pelican ''[[Victor 398]]'' crash position is exactly the same as ''Victor 933''.
