I think it should be rather clear from the context that the line in ''The Flood'' ("Most combat landings were made via armed assault boats") is not talking about a specific type of insertion vehicle but rather an ordinary Pelican dropship. Covenant boarding craft and dropships are referred to as "assault boats" more than once in the book, which implies the author simply used it as an alternate term for dropship or a similar insertion craft. If this was indeed a never-before-seen type of craft, I think it would've been elaborated upon at least a little or the wording would've been different. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 06:03, 16 August 2011 (EDT) | I think it should be rather clear from the context that the line in ''The Flood'' ("Most combat landings were made via armed assault boats") is not talking about a specific type of insertion vehicle but rather an ordinary Pelican dropship.

Page Number
Could someone please search for the page number in Halo: The Flood, where the Armed Assault Boats are mentioned? I don't have the copy anymore, and I don't remember the page number. It's somewhere at the beginning where the POA is attacked. --UNSC Trooper TalkMy Work 19:51, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
"Albatrosses" in Sandtrap and Relic
Could the Albatrosses be actually armed assault boats?
