The M868 model was originally developed for inclusion in ''[[Halo 2]]'', alongside the [[M862 Arctic Warthog]] and [[M914 Recovery Warthog]] variants. These models were cut from the game's development, however, with a screenshot of them (shown below) released on [[Bungie.net]].

The M868 Tropic Warthog[1] is a variant of the M12 Warthog that is outfitted for operations in jungle terrain.[1]

Description[edit]

Unlike its standard variant, the M868 is a hostile-environment variant for operations in a tropical environment.[2] Most notable changes are a further ruggedized suspension and double application of anti-corrosion coatings.[1]

Trivia[edit]

The M868 as-described bears a heavy resemblance to a vehicle cut during the development of Halo 2. This was later confirmed by Jeff Easterling,[3] with the note that it can change later if 343 Industries needed.[4]
