Retriever Sentinel

The Strato-Sentinel was a Forerunner Sentinel variant.

They were also used in the construction of the Portal on Earth, in the present-day country of Kenya.

Trivia

 * Strato-Sentinels were originally planned to appear in Halo 3, but wound up being cut from the game.
 * One of the concepts for the remake of Lockout had the map set in the partially destroyed insides of a Strato-Sentinel orbiting the Ark's resource moon.
 * The name of the Strato-Sentinel is likely a reference to the B-52 Stratofortress, a large United States Air Force jet, or the B-47 Stratojet, another large American plane.
