The '''''Wuzum''-pattern Patroller'''{{Ref/ | The '''''Wuzum''-pattern Patroller'''{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=272}} {{Type|46|Infantry Support Vehicle|ISV}}, more commonly known as the '''Spectre''', is a [[Covenant]] anti-infantry and transportation vehicle.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} | ||

Like most Covenant vehicles, the | Like most Covenant vehicles, the T46 ISV utilizes a pair of [[boosted gravity propulsion drive]]s for locomotion and features a sleek, bulbous design. The driver is seated in a lightly armored station at the front of the vehicle; a hatch provides limited protection to the driver's left and right sides, though the front is almost completely exposed. A single anti-gravity generator is mounted on either side of the vehicle behind the driver. A single-passenger seat is mounted above each anti-gravity generator, allowing two passengers to provide fire support. It is quite transportable and can be easily carried by a {{Pattern|Kez'katu|Phantom}}. | ||
The Spectre possesses impressive lateral maneuverability: it is able to strafe left and right at almost full speed, which is one of its main advantages over the Prowler.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The main thruster can be accelerated indefinitely, greatly increasing the vehicle's speed at a great cost of maneuverability. | The Spectre possesses impressive lateral maneuverability: it is able to strafe left and right at almost full speed, which is one of its main advantages over the Prowler.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The main thruster can be accelerated indefinitely, greatly increasing the vehicle's speed at a great cost of maneuverability. | ||

The Spectre was first encountered by [[United Nations Space Command]] personnel during the [[Battle of Sargasso]] in [[2546]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The Spectre was used by the Covenant to fill a role between that of the {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}}, a rapid assault vehicle, and that of the {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}}, a heavy support tank. The Spectre competed in this regard with the relatively uncommon [[Qavardu Workshop Prowler]], which was utilized exclusively by the [[Jiralhanae]], though neither held popular favor; eventually, both were largely supplanted by the {{Pattern|Rizvum|Revenant}}. | The Spectre was first encountered by [[United Nations Space Command]] personnel during the [[Battle of Sargasso]] in [[2546]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The Spectre was used by the Covenant to fill a role between that of the {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}}, a rapid assault vehicle, and that of the {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}}, a heavy support tank.

Shortly after emerging from a downed [[Sentinel manufacturing facility]], 'Vadamee regrouped with [[Special Operations Commander]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]] and another Sangheili piloting another Spectre.<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level ''[[Quarantine Zone]]''</ref> Later in the battle, following the outbreak of the [[Great Schism]], [[Jiralhanae]] forces deployed to the surface of Installation 05 utilized at least one Spectre during their attacks against the Sangheili.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Uprising]]''</ref> Another was used by Thel 'Vadam during his assault on the [[Bastion of the Brutes]] and several more Jiralhanae-operated Spectres were among the forces that vainly attempted to prevent 'Vadam and [[Sergeant Johnson]] from reaching the installation's [[Control Room (Installation 05)|Control Room]].<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[The Great Journey]]''</ref> In the following weeks, the Spectre was entirely replaced by the [[Qavardu Workshop Prowler]] which was being mass-produced by then.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} | ||
After the war, some independent Sangheili [[keep]]s on [[Sanghelios]] kept Spectres and used them at the outset of the [[Blooding Years]].
