Covenant military: Difference between revisions

Line 281:

A range of excavation platforms were repurposed by the Covenant military during the war against humanity. The {{Pattern|Shua'ee|Locust}} and the far larger [[Scarab]] platforms were used in combative roles against enemies of the Covenant. Many varieties of the Scarab were employed, with the most common being the {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}}. The larger Protos model of the T-47 was used less frequently than the more combat-ready Deutoros model.

[[Type-26 Banshee]]s were used as standard ground support aircraft while ~~[[Type-25~~ Spirit]]s, [[Type-44 Phantom]]s and [[Type-52 Phantom]]s were used as troop dropships. Rarely seen by human combatants, the {{Pattern|Kmiro'sish|Lich}} saw use as the heaviest of airborne deployment platforms. An anti-aircraft fighter, the {{Pattern|Bkowe'nei|Vampire}} was seldom used by the military.

[[Type-26 Banshee]]s were used as standard ground support aircraft while {{Pattern|Dextro Xur|Spirit}}s, [[Type-44 Phantom]]s and [[Type-52 Phantom]]s were used as troop dropships.

An anti-aircraft fighter, the {{Pattern|Bkowe'nei|Vampire}} was seldom used by the military.

The military also used many different types of drop pods to rapidly deploy infantry units to any battlefield from an orbital ship. Variants that carried individual troops were most often seen, although some types of drop pod allowed for the transportation of multiple Covenant soldiers.
