Spirits are angular, tuning fork/'''U''' shaped spacecraft with two parallel personnel bays along the exterior of each "prong". They are known to be used to transport [[Sangheili|Elites]], [[Kig-yar|Jackals]], [[Unggoy|Grunts]], and [[Brutes]]. [[Hunters]] have been reported being seen coming out of the bays. Spirits have been known to ferry Covenant vehicles within the blue colored energy field between their prongs, usually [[Ghosts]] and [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraiths]], or other small objects such as supply canisters. | Spirits are angular, tuning fork/'''U''' shaped spacecraft with two parallel personnel bays along the exterior of each "prong".

Around the time of the [[Battle of Earth]], it would seem that the Spirits were completely replaced with the more heavily built [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]], though, since great numbers were probably produced, were still used in the [[Battle of Onyx]]. A modified Spirit was used by [[SPARTAN-117]] to get him and his team aboard the ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'' in [[Operation: First Strike]]. During the [[Battle of Harvest]], a destroyed Spirit was used by the [[Huragok]] [[Lighter Than Some]] as raw material to create a vehicle that would later be adopted by the [[Brutes]] as the "[[Type-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Brute Chopper]]". | Around the time of the [[Battle of Earth]], it would seem that the Spirits were completely replaced with the more heavily built [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]], though, since great numbers were probably produced, were still used in the [[Battle of Onyx]].

It is speculated that the Spirit is not designed for combat drops, but is instead a cargo transport, though it is armed with a heavy plasma cannon. During the events of the [[Battle of Installation 04]], Spirits were the dropships the UNSC encountered on [[Alpha Halo]]. | It is speculated that the Spirit is not designed for combat drops, but is instead a cargo transport, though it is armed with a heavy plasma auto-cannon.
