In ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo 3 ODST]]'''s [[campaign]], a glitch allows players to '''drive an [[AA Wraith]] '''(and a normal [[Wraith]] in ''Halo 3: ODST'') in any level it appears in.

It is to be noted, however, that the Wraith will self-destruct once you leave it. Avoid leaving the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] or any [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] in the turret; they will die when the vehicle self-destructs, and the deaths will be counted as [[betrayal]]s. | It is to be noted, however, that the Wraith will self-destruct once you leave it.

This method addresses the problem of accidentally boarding the Wraith when trying to drive it. By boarding the Wraith, ''Person B'' prevents ''Person A'' from accidentally doing the same. This guarantees that when ''Person A'' holds '''RB''', they will enter the vehicle and pilot it. | This method addresses the problem of accidentally boarding the Wraith when trying to drive it.

Anti-Air Wraiths and ''Halo 3: ODST'' Normal Wraiths cannot normally be piloted because of a function [[Bungie]] attached to the vehicle: when the driver dies or exits, the vehicle self-destructs. This is why killing the driver before completing the glitch prevents it from working, and why the vehicle self-destructs when a player exits the cockpit. | Anti-Air Wraiths and ''Halo 3: ODST'' Normal Wraiths cannot normally be piloted because of a function [[Bungie]] attached to the vehicle: when the driver dies or exits, the vehicle self-destructs.

If a player kills the driver while holding '''RB''', they will enter the vehicle the moment the driver dies—and before the vehicle self-destructs. The span of time at which the vehicle is pilot-less will be so brief that the game will fail to notice it, and thus will not destroy the vehicle. | ||
