The Type-52 ISV is similar in function to the Covenant [[Type-46 Spectre]], though it is utilized only by the Jiralhanae. The Prowler seems to hover on a gravity-assisted "sled", as the bottom incorporates a pair of metal runners with an anti-gravity projector running between them. A plasma turret is located at the front of the vehicle, the driver sits in the rear of the vehicle, and two passengers can make use of the jump seats on either side. It's aesthetically similar in its clear-cut, brutal nature to the [[Type-25 Chopper]]. The concept of its anti-gravitational propulsion is also similar to the Chopper's, but it differs by utilizing two dual engines rotating in opposite directions. The origin of the Prowler's design is unknown, though theories range from an arctic fast-attack vehicle to naval patrol boat.<ref name="universe"/> | The Type-52 ISV is similar in function to the Covenant [[Type-46 Spectre]], though it is utilized only by the Jiralhanae.

The automatic [[plasma cannon]] is capable of 360 degree movement, making it extremely dangerous as it allows the vehicle to target enemies regardless of which way the Prowler is facing. This makes it very difficult to ambush Prowlers, as a competent gunner will constantly check all directions for enemy movement. Like most other Brute vehicles, it is an effective battering ram. While the vehicle cannot strafe, it is capable of tilting from side to side. | The automatic [[Class-1 directed energy cannon|plasma cannon]] is capable of 360 degree movement, making it extremely dangerous as it allows the vehicle to target enemies regardless of which way the Prowler is facing.

The two side-mounted seats on either side of the Prowler turret housing increases the vehicle's deadliness. If the passengers are armed with powerful explosive weaponry, such as a [[Type-33 fuel rod gun]] or [[M41 rocket launcher]], the Prowler can effectively take out large armored vehicles such as [[M808 Scorpion]] or [[Type-26 Wraith]] tanks. If the passengers decide to use automatic weapons such as a [[Type-25 plasma rifle]], they can complement the plasma turret and make for an extremely effective weapons platform for cutting down infantry and suppressing light vehicles. It's also effective if passengers are armed with [[Type-52 Mauler]]s or [[M90 Shotgun]]s, as they can shoot any enemy that gets too close to the Prowler and prevent a potential boarding. | The two side-mounted seats on either side of the Prowler turret housing increases the vehicle's deadliness.
