The Doozy is a snowmobile in service with the United Nations Space Command. It is used for rapid movement over snowy terrain, particularly for medical transport, messaging, diversionary tactics, and evacuation. A rear-facing "nausea seat" can accommodate a passenger, much like the rear seat of the M274 Mongoose. However, the design is often seen as a hindrance.[1]

Concept art of the original Doozy
- The Doozy is inspired by a boat of the same name that was considered for implementation into Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2. The watercraft would have featured a rear-facing seat, allowing a player or NPC to engage pursuing enemies.[2] The Doozy, along with several variants of the M12 Warthog, was canonized in the Halo Encyclopedia, albeit as a snowmobile rather than a boat.
- This is one of the few (if not, the only) ground vehicle of the UNSC that is not named after an animal or mythical creature.
