It says in the article that the Banshee is capable of space flight but what happens if an Elite flys into space wearing normal armour? In Halo: CE, the pilot lies down and if Master Chief pilots one, you can see his feet. Since normal-armoured elites have an open part in their armour, doesn't that mean an Elite must be wearing Ranger armour to properly fly in space? | It says in the article that the Banshee is capable of space flight but what happens if an Elite flys into space wearing normal armour?

A Banshee has no enclosed atmosphere, so you would need a vacuum suit to operate it in space. However, I remember in one of the books (possibly Fall of Reach?) that the Banshee is mentioned to have a flight ceiling of something like 500 meters. This means the Banshee wouldn't be able to make it into space under its own steam. It also starts to break down the whole idea of a Banshee flying in space.. don't think about it too much.

I know you guys are tired of renaming/merging/deleting by now, and I know I'm not one to talk, but has anyone considered renaming the article to "Covenant Banshee" and have a disambution-whatever-it's-spelled page for "Banshee" that can link to both the "Covenant Banshee" and the "Heretic Banshee"? If not, whatever. Just a harmless and peaceful thought. --[[user:Blemo|<font color="#D3D3D3">B</font><font color="#A9A9A9">le</font><font color="#808080">mo</font>]] http://www.wikia.com/skins/common/progress-wheel.gif <small><sup>[[user talk:Blemo|<font color="#A9A9A9">TALK</font>]]</sup> • <sub> [http://halopedian.com/Special:Contributions/Blemo <font color="A9A9A9">CONTRIBUTIONS</font>]</sub></small> • <sup><small> | I know you guys are tired of renaming/merging/deleting by now, and I know I'm not one to talk, but has anyone considered renaming the article to "Covenant Banshee" and have a disambution-whatever-it's-spelled page for "Banshee" that can link to both the "Covenant Banshee" and the "Heretic Banshee"?

Yes they do. In the E3 Saber demo they are the first thing you fight in space. Although they are not much of a challenge, they DO fight Saber's in space combat so shouldn't they be considered starfighters?

Hey, I just replayed the game again, and I noticed standard Type-26 Banshees flying in space, which I thought only Type-27 Space Banshees could do. Thinking back on this, I have seen not once, but two or three times. Think that should be mentioned in the article that they are spaceworthy vehicles. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 05:31, 20 March 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330 | Hey, I just replayed the game again, and I noticed standard Type-26 Banshees flying in space, which I thought only Type-27 Space Banshees could do.

::Also, it's not like 343i didn't know about this ahead of time, but for their limited use, they couldn't afford to put the T-27 assets in the game for so short a scene when they needed that memory for other objects. We ensured it was addressed in the Banshee's writeup in the Halo 4 Visual Guide that limited vacuum (space) use was possible. If this had been a comic rather than a game, I'm confident T-27s would have been drawn instead. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 06:35, 20 March 2014 (EDT) | ::Also, it's not like 343i didn't know about this ahead of time, but for their limited use, they couldn't afford to put the T-27 assets in the game for so short a scene when they needed that memory for other objects.

Under the section of operational history, it states "Covenant forces deployed T-26B and T-26C Banshees in order to hunt down the remaining UNSC personnel who escaped onto the ring and later engage both Flood and Sentinel forces". Is there a canonical source stating that the T-26C model was used during the Battle of Instillation 04, because only the T-26B model appeared in CE Anniversary.--[[User:PartlyPoison|PartlyPoison]] ([[User talk:PartlyPoison|talk]]) 22:54, 17 October 2016 (EDT) | Under the section of operational history, it states "Covenant forces deployed T-26B and T-26C Banshees in order to hunt down the remaining UNSC personnel who escaped onto the ring and later engage both Flood and Sentinel forces".
