In a [[cutscene]] from the ''Halo 3'' [[Campaign]] level [[The Ark (Level)|The Ark]], a Pelican snaps off its frigate and plummets toward [[Installation 00|the eponymous construct]] below in almost the exact same fashion as the UD-4L, when it deployed from the ''Sulaco'' starship in ''Aliens''. Also,the Pelican cockpit seats are similar to the UD-4L as one is in the front right and the other is in the back left. In addition, the [[UNSC Frigates]], such as the ''[[Forward Unto Dawn]]'', the ''[[UNSC In Amber Clad|In Amber Clad]]'', and the ''[[Aegis Fate]]'', greatly resemble ''Sulaco'', both in appearance and usage. The most obvious shared trait is that both of their profiles look like massive guns, a characteristic that the ''Sulaco'' is famous for.

In ''Aliens''<nowiki/>' fiction, "atmosphere processors" (above left and right) are set up by colonists in order to alter the atmosphere on new worlds, making them survivable by humans. This structure is prominent in the story, as it is the place where the colonists are cocooned and the Colonial Marines have their first "close encounter" with the Xenomorphs. The [[Forerunner]] [[Portal]] to the [[Ark]] is also a prominent set piece in ''Halo 3''. The name and concept of the Atmosphere Processor is also similar to "Atmospheric Processors" used to [[Terraforming|terraform]] worlds in the Halo universe.
