''' | '''Eradicator Sentinels''' are a variant of [[Sentinel]] often utilized used as combat carapaces by [[Facilitator-class ancilla|adjutant sub-monitors]] in defense of their assigned [[Forerunner]] installations.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=329}} | ||

In addition, Eradicators have a powerful [[Sentinel beam|sterilization beam]] that can be fired from its central unit.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Spire|HI|Connections|Spire (Halo Infinite level)}} Eradicators are also equipped with small reconstitution emitters, as well as [[energy shielding]], and an [[impulse drive]]. {{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | ||

Eradicators can function autonomously like [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s but are usually used as personal [[combat skin]]s for executor constructs in charge of Forerunner installations. A [[monitor]], [[Facilitator-class ancilla|sub-monitor]], or other Forerunner [[ancilla|construct]] can dock within a cradle inside the Eradicator's central chassis and take control of the machine, using it to confront localized dangers directly.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} In the event of close-quarters combat, the Eradicators can generate a pulse of energy that knocks enemies back. | Eradicators can function autonomously like [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s but are usually used as personal [[combat skin]]s for executor constructs in charge of Forerunner installations.

Eradicators have at least two design flaws: a lack of manoeuvrability and a relatively slow speed while in combat. Furthermore, if one of its offensive appendages is destroyed, the Eradicator will temporarily freeze up.{{Ref/Reuse|Spire}}{{Ref/Reuse|The Command Spire}} | ||

During the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], when [[John-117]] and [[the Weapon]] attempted to shut down the first [[Reformation Spire|Spire]] in order to halt the [[Reformation]], they incurred the wrath of [[Adjutant Resolution]], one of [[Installation 07]]'s sub-monitors. Adjutant Resolution summoned an Eradicator, which he entered and assumed control of, and then proceeded to attack the Master Chief. The Chief managed to destroy the Eradicator, though Adjutant Resolution escaped unharmed.{{Ref/Reuse|Spire}} | During the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], when [[John-117]] and [[the Weapon]] attempted to shut down the first [[Reformation Spire|Spire]] in order to halt the [[Reformation]], they incurred the wrath of [[Adjutant Resolution]], one of [[Installation 07]]'s sub-monitors.
