The '''Anvil-II Air-to-Surface Missiles''', sometimes referred to as '''ASM's''', are normally mounted via rocket pods on [[Pelican]] dropships or [[SkyHawk]] atmospheric jump-jets for clearing ground targets and drop zones of enemies.<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', page 306</ref>

This missile is used multiple times in the Halo games, used by pelican dropships to attack the Scarab at the end of [[Metropolis (Level)|Metropolis]]. It is used again by Pelicans in the [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]], when a [[Flood]]-controlled Pelican flies past and shoots down some [[Sentinel Majors]] and hits the one [[Enforcer]] that is there. It is also on the second Pelican that shows up at the start of the level [[Delta Halo (Level)|Delta Halo]], though this dropship only fires very rarely. It is also used at the end of [[Sierra 117 (Level)|Sierra 117]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'', to clear out the ending area and allow the Pelican to land and give the player evac to the next level.
