This '''spy drone''' was used by the [[United Nations Space Command]] to investigate the surface of [[Ven III]], a planet located on the outskirts of the [[Joint Occupation Zone]], after a group of [[Kig-Yar]] [[pirate]]s settled on the planet and began to use it as a base of operations. After failing to convince the [[UNSC Navy]] to deal with the pirates, the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] created a cover story about the Kig-Yar on the planet creating a [[bioweapon]] which they had apparently unleashed on themselves by accident. On [[2558#May|May 8, 2558]], the spy drone observed the diseased corpses of several Kig-Yar in the laboratory they had allegedly used to create the bioweapon; the video feed from the drone was used by [[Serin Osman|Admiral Serin Osman]] to convince [[Thomas Lasky|Captain Thomas Lasky]] of {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} to deal with the matter. Later, the drone was discovered and destroyed by a [[Ayit 'Sevi|Sangheili agent]] who had retrieved the bioweapon from the laboratory and was covertly working for ONI.<ref name="HE11">'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 11|Issue #11]]''</ref>

The spy drone was rather small in size and seemingly had the ability to operate alone in a planetary system. The drone had the ability to scan for threats, open the [[blast door]]s of the laboratory, and enable the facility's overhead lights. It could also upload a live feed of what it was viewing to its operator. Its camera was located on the bottom of the drone.{{Ref/Reuse|HE11}}
