In respect of weapons, the Hornet is similar to its Covenant cousin, featuring both anti-infantry and anti-vehicle weapons. These consist of two three-barreled rotary chain guns, which seem similar to the [[AIE-486H Heavy Machinegun]], mounted on either side of the cockpit, on the underside of the wings. The anti-vehicle capabilities of the Hornet comprise of two six-missile pods on the underside of the jumpseats, which fire dual missiles much like those fired by the [[Missile Pod]]; however, the missiles are weaker, easier to avoid, and, like the missile pod, it's missiles lock onto enemy vehicles and turrets. Soon, in the DLC Legendary Map Pack, it may be replaced with a version that has only machine guns, which are slightly weaker. That way, it's not a flying death machine, but a support craft. | In respect of weapons, the Hornet is similar to its Covenant cousin, featuring both anti-infantry and anti-vehicle weapons.
