Shua'ee-pattern Locust

Locust

The Locust is a Covenant ground combat vehicle which will be featured in Halo Wars. It is described as a "building killer" and Spartans were described as being able to jack it, like many other vehicles.

Appearance
The Locust is a smaller version of the Scarab walker, with only one rotating turret which hosts a single large cannon. Its four legs may allow it to kneel down or climb over obstacles, like its larger cousin. Its central turret looks similar to a Banshee cockpit.

Trivia

 * It resembles its larger counterpart, the Scarab, especially the Scarabs from the Halo Graphic Novel.
 * It is possible that these, not the Scarabs, were the vehicles seen at CASTLE Base.
 * The Locust follows the naming scheme used on Covenant walkers, starting with the Scarab, where the vehicle is named after a insect.
