Major Grunts mostly appear leading a squad of Minor Grunts under the leadership of any [[Elite]], even an [[Elite Minor]]. They usually appear whenever Minor Grunts do. They are found in almost all the levels in the [[Halo]] trilogy where you can find Covenant. In Halo 3, not much changes for Grunt Majors, as they are still lead by the lowest ranks of the highest Covenant society, which at this time are Brutes. They are usually led by [[Brute Minors]] to [[Brute Captain Ultra]]s.

They are seen in combat as decorated in lucid red-colored armor (similar to their [[Elite Major|Elite counterparts]]), contrary to the orange armor of Minor Grunts and are more courageous as well, often staying to fight under conditions that would make their lesser brethren flee. If all their commanders, [[Sangheili]] or [[Jiralhanae]], are killed, they will ''sometimes'' stand, resist, and fight. However, they ''still'' aren't very courageous and can often be observed fleeing along with [[Minor Grunts]], but more unlikely to go kamikaze than the Minors. They usually fight alongside a combined team of other Unggoy and [[Kig-yar]], and have command over lower ranked [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]]. Grunt Majors are the first enemy to wield the hand-held [[Fuel Rod Gun]] in the Halo series. They attacked the player with these deadly weapons after the player had destroyed the first [[Pulse Generator]] in the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' level, [[Two Betrayals]]. | They are seen in combat as decorated in lucid red-colored armor (similar to their [[Elite Major|Elite counterparts]]), contrary to the orange armor of Minor Grunts and are more courageous as well, often staying to fight under conditions that would make their lesser brethren flee.

During combat, Majors are usually the first ones to jump out of the [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Dropships]]. They are known to combine their forces in battle often. The Majors will also pair up and fight together with numerous subordinate Unggoy and even Kig-yar or [[Yanme'e]] soldiers. | During combat, Majors are usually the first ones to jump out of the [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Dropships]].
