:I was thinking the same thing (given that the Type-51 designation matches up perfectly with the Battle of Meridian), however, looking at it now, the one at Meridian does look like a Type-53. The designations were given by the UNSC when the item was properly documented, so maybe the UNSC didn't designate the Type-53 until 2553.

:You're mixing up three things: date of manufacture (unknown), date of first sight (unknown), and date of categorization by the UNSC (2553). Covenant weaponry has to be used on the battlefield, before it's even given a name by the UNSC. Also, check Halo 4 The Essential Visual Guide, it says the UNSC has very little knowledge on Covenant drop pods used during the war, implying the pods in Halo 4 were not new and were used in the war (eg: during the Battle of Meridian, etc).
