Protector Sentinel (Installation 00)

Protector Sentinels are a specialized variety of Forerunner Sentinel similar to the Super Sentinels.

Halo Wars 2
Protector Sentinels are exclusive to Ellen Anders, and can be made at the Firebase once the leader power has unlocked them. They are effective against vehicles, but are only okay against infantry, aircraft, and structures. Protector Sentinels are a good all-rounder air unit. In Blitz, Protector Sentinels cost 70 energy.

Production notes
During the development of Halo Wars, an alternate design for the Super Sentinel was concepted and modelled through to final game asset. This model (shown below) remains in the game files of Halo Wars: Definitive Edition albeit untextured. The early design was later reused almost unchanged as the Protector Sentinels introduced in Halo Wars 2.
