A '''stealth pylon''' is a piece of [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] technology that is capable of hiding large areas from sensors. The pylon is a large tower-like object with a revolving head that releases a pink glow every few seconds. They are supported by three tripod-like legs, which each contain the pylon's energy supply systems. Underside of the pylon is a [[gravity lift]] which can lift personnel up to the main level which mounts three [[Type-52 Directed Energy Support Weapon|plasma turrets]] for defense. Several stealth pylons were used in the [[Viery Territory]] on the eve of the [[Fall of Reach]] to shield large Covenant deployments.<ref name="HR">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level, ''[[Nightfall]]''</ref> | A '''stealth pylon''' is a piece of [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] technology that is capable of hiding large areas from sensors.
