Cut Halo 2 Warthogs

These Warthogs were created by artist Marcus Lehto shortly after the release of Halo: Combat Evolved. An image of them was later released on Bungie.net as part of their Halo 2 project page.

In later media such as Bungie.net news, the Halo Encyclopedia and the Halo Waypoint universe section, several vehicles have been described with very similar traits to these cut vehicles, namely being the (from left to right, as per the image and not including the standard Warthog) M868 Tropic Warthog, M862 Arctic Warthog and M914 Recovery Vehicle. However, it is presently unknown if these cut vehicles inspired these canonical variants, or it their similar appearances are merely a coincidence.
