The Darter's cargo bay is capable of transporting large numbers of supply [[List of UNSC crates|crates]] at a time. Once it has landed, the underside splits down the middle, lowering a metal pallet from the cargo bay and allowing its cargo to be left groundside to be unloaded. Once free of supplies, the Darter can reseal its cargo bay doors, returning to an orbiting space craft to resupply.

In ''Halo Wars'', the D82-EST is used to transport supplies from the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} to provide additional resources for ground forces. They land on specific landing platforms, built into prefabricated [[firebase]] units designed to house supply crates they deliver. The Darter cannot be destroyed in-game. However, if a supply pad is destroyed, the craft assigned to it will disappear from the screen.
