Condor 325
The D80-LRT "SuperCondor" in Halo: The Television Series.

The D80-LRT "SuperCondor"[3] is a larger variant of the standard Condor.[3] Although the "SuperCondor" does use the standard D80 Condor frame including its cargo-bay (albeit slightly longer) and feature a slipspace drive, it bears additionally few similarities to the D81-LRT Condor, as it features an extra level; what appears to be an additional deployment bay on the tail boom like, and as well as eight maneuvering thrusters identical to the D79-TC Pelican, similar to D81's so-called "Mission Package".[3] It is also armed with at least a nose-mounted chaingun.[4]

The "SuperCondor" Condor 325 is used by Silver Team during humanity's war with the Covenant.[5]
