*[[Machinegun Turret]]- It is able to be detached from the fixed version and have a total of 200 rounds of ammunition. It is planned to appear in [[Halo 3]]. This weapon may, however, use .50 caliber ammunition given its designation as a "heavy" machine gun. 7.62mm, or .30 caliber, rounds are generally considered more of a light machine gun cartridge.
