The Mammoth is a six-wheeled vehicle and presumably fills a similar role to the smaller [[M313 Heavy Recovery Vehicle|M313 Elephant]] as a dual-role command and support/heavy recovery vehicle. As with the Elephant, the Mammoth also possess an internal storage bay for much smaller vehicles such as the [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]] and the [[M274 Ultra-Light All-Terrain Vehicle|Mongoose]], which can exit through the vehicle's front ramp. The Mammoth sports a [[MAC|Mark 2457/35cm HRG MAC]] turret on the topside and two large openings towards the back, as well as two smaller ones near the vehicle's cockpit. <ref name="Magic">[http://www.ign.com/videos/2012/08/15/making-of-halo-4?utm_campaign=ign+main+twitter&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social '''IGN''' ''The Magic Behind Halo 4'']</ref> An [[M79 Multiple Launch Rocket System|M79 MLRS]] emplacement is mounted facing starboard for close-in defense. It is generally painted in a [[Wikipedia:Camel (color)|camel brown]] scheme. | The Mammoth is a six-wheeled vehicle and presumably fills a similar role to the smaller [[M313 Heavy Recovery Vehicle|M313 Elephant]] as a dual-role command and support/heavy recovery vehicle.

The Mammoth is roughly 70 meters in length and carries numerous mounted weapons and materiel caches. It has no equal in size, firepower or tactical faculty within the UNSC's mobile planet-side support contingent. The Mammoths most significant attribute would be its topside mounted rail gun, designed to target and eliminate hostile vessels, weapons, and fortifactions in terrestrial and suborbital positions | |||
