"If you can see it I can shoot it."

- A Kodiak operator during the Banished occupation of Installation 00.

The M400 Kodiak is an eight-wheeled siege vehicle that features a pivoting cannon. The Kodiak can also lock itself down similar to the SP42 Cobra.

Operational history
Kodiaks were used by the United Nations Space Command during the Human-Covenant War. In 2557, a couple of them were collected by Ram Chalva's salvage crew from beneath the glassed surface of Mesa. During the Battle of Carrow in September 2558, the Surakan Militia Volunteers used multiple Kodiaks against Hekabe's forces. In April 2559, Kodiaks saw action on Installation 00 during the fight between the and the Banished.

Halo Wars 2
In Halo Wars 2 Kodiaks can be built by all UNSC leaders at the UNSC Garage. Kodiaks are effective against infantry, vehicles, and structures while deployed. They are only able to attack aircraft when not deployed and perform poorly against them. Due to the range of the Kodiak's artillery attack, a spotter is required to designate targets for the cannon. If the player picks Serina as a Leader, the Kodiak can be upgraded with Cryo Shells through Cryotech Advances Leader Power, allowing the shells to give a chill effect to the area around it.
 * Info: Artillery, Fires when deployed, Very long range, Strong against infantry.
 * Abilities: Artillery Deployment
 * Tier: 2
 * Cost: Population 6, Supplies 500, Power 0

Trivia

 * The Kodiak is seemingly based off the cut Fox Cannon from Halo Wars.
 * The Kodiak is similar to GDI Rhino from Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight, where the Rhino can be deployed into artillery mode.
