Fireteam Zulu

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Fireteam Zulu was a United Nations Space Command Marine unit stationed aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn that actively participated in the Battle of Installation 04. They are first heard of by SPARTAN-117 about a third the way through the Assault on the Control Room when the Master Chief steps out onto a bridge spanning a large valley.

"This is Fire Team Zulu requesting immediate assistance from any UNSC forces. Does anyone copy?"

The Pelican that is transporting Fire Team Zulu is attacked by Covenant Banshee's on its decent to drop off the Fire Team, after deploying the troops along with a Warthog, the dropship flies out of view into the next valley where it crashes, the crash is not witnessed but it is pressumed that it was due to the damage sustained from the Banshee attack. [1] Weapons that are brought in by Team Zulu include a Rocket Launcher, Sniper Rifle, and a Warthog. The Master Chief on meeting up with Fire Team Zulu helped by destroying a Ghost and a couple of Shade turrets, The Master Chief then uses the Warthog with the help of a marine on the LAAG to take out the Wraith mortar tank guarding the valley.[2]

A Scorpion Tank is present near the dropships crash site in the next valley, but it doesn't seem likely to have been brought in by Team Zulu as a Pelican can only lift a Scorpion or a Warthog due to weight limits.

Fire Team Zulu then assists the Chief as he fights his way through the valleys but when the Master Chief has to return back inside they do not follow because evac has become available.

Fire Team Zulu had at least one Corporal[3] and one Sergeant[4]
