The Muz-pattern Mortar Tank[1] (UNSC Type classification: Type-26 Assault Gun Carriage, T-26 AGC),[4] and more commonly known as the Wraith, is a Covenant armored infantry support/assault gun vehicle for ground engagements. Unlike most Wraiths the Muz-pattern will often feature a dummy module that operates twin anti-personnel plasma cannons. By 2550 the Covenant had seemingly stopped producing the Muz-pattern in favor of the Zurdo-pattern Wraith.[6]

Operational history

Muz-pattern Wraiths were used as artillery by the Prophet of Regret's forces during the Battle of Mombasa and later the Battle of Installation 05.[7][8] During the Battle of the Quarantine Zone the Flood made use of Wraiths against the Covenant, UNSC, and Forerunner Sentinels.[9]. At the outbreak of the Great Schism many Wraiths were used by the Jiralhanae and the Sangheili against one another on Installation 05's surface.[10][11]

By 2559 the Banished had modified their stock of Muz-pattern Wraiths aboard the Enduring Conviction for their campaign on Installation 00.[12]
