The halo 2 version should be Artillery not an AA battery! In the Halo 2 E3 gameplay trailer the wounded Sergeant Banks tells HQ that he has hostile Artillery 200 meters north northeast of his position, not an AA battery and it does a very poor job on the two bombers that take it out. I think it should have a separate page[[User talk:Hatchling001|Hatchling001]] 02:48, 6 June 2009 (UTC) | |||
FYI by artillery I mean similar to a howitzer not anti-air cannons. The Halo 2 models performs like that, highly unable to hit fast moving fighters which an anti-air cannon would do, and designed to attack ground units. There is no apparent anti-air quality at all about it. Even the pelican easily move around it in the demo. It is also seen only hitting buildings or bursting in air like artillery rounds can also do. artillery is not the same as Anti-Air. A hornet could hover over that structure and avoid all fire from it. The Halo 3 version on the other hand IS an anti-air piece as it easily fires rounds fast enough to down fighters and damage ships. Much like a super beam rifle round. The Halo 2 model should have another page and be designated artillery. In ODST they may even have halo 3 anti-air that will show they each had these different roles. Can't wait to see.[[User talk:Hatchling001|Hatchling001]] 21:08, 27 June 2009 (UTC) | |||
:In fact, this is true. There's really no evidence that the guns seen in H2 and the E3 demo have anything to do with the AA gun in H3. They're more like stationary Wraith mortars, only larger, while the one in H3 is clearly just an AA gun. Should these articles be split? --[[User talk:Jugus|Jugus]] 20:45, November 9, 2009 (UTC) | |||

==Better Picture== | |||
I think there should be a better introductory image, like a transparent image, for this article, and I know of two places where someone could get them. There is the ''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide'', and of course there is also the pre-existing images already present in this article, and elsewhere. I can probably take care of the image shown in the Guide once I have the time, but it would be great if someone else also got to work on one of the other images, or perhaps an even better full view image from a screenshot from ''Halo 3''. I'd do it myself, except I wouldn't know what image would be this best screenshot to extract in Photoshop. So, can anyone help out?

:I don't think any of the images currently in the article are very well suited for a transparent main image; not even the current main one, seeing as there's some foliage obstructing parts of the gun. A similar screenshot, without any obstructions, would be great for the main image. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 11:37, 15 September 2011 (EDT) | |||
::Figures. I'll keep looking around for a better one, though. May just have to go with the image from the Guide, if that's okay, maybe better than others. [[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 13:14, 15 September 2011 (EDT)Xamikaze330 | |||
::'''UPDATE''': Guess I don't have to keep looking around or scanning anything anymore, thanks to Jugus! Jugus did a much better job than I could have done with a scanned image from ''Halo: The Essential Guide''! Though I may try to do it anyway just to keep trying to refine the quality of my scanned images ;) [[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 15:21, 28 September 2011 (EDT)Xamikaze330 | |||
