The tank during the assault on the Control Room.
030569 was a UNSC M808B Main Battle Tank that was attached to Fire Team Zulu during the Battle of Installation 04 in September 2552.[1]
History
Battle of Installation 04
When Fire Team Zulu's Pelican crashed in the canyons close to Installation 04's Control Room, 030569 detached from the aircraft and slid on the ice some 20 meters. It was discovered alongside the fire team by John-117 during his assaulton the Control Room, who used it to fight his way through the canyons, destroying multiple Ghosts and Wraiths. However, John and the Marines had to abandon the tank at a set of pipes where it was too narrow for the tank to continue.[1]
Trivia
- This tank appears to be the only tank in Halo: Combat Evolved, as all multiplayer tanks are labeled alike (even though the hatch is built differently).
- The tank's serial number is a reference to Marcus R. Lehto, Halo's Art Director, who was born on March 5, 1969.[2]..
