The most ubiquitous model is the [[M12 Warthog LRV|M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]] and its variants, which is equipped with advanced surveillance and a turret-mounted machine gun for a basic defensive capability. The M12 has been a part of the UNSC's mechanized infantry divisions and armored vehicle divisions since [[2319]],<ref name="waypointuni"/> and is the most publicly recognizable vehicle in their arsenal.

{{Infobox/Ships
[[AMG Transport Dynamics]] designed the first Warthog prototype in [[2319]], dubbed the "'''[[Z-12]]'''". The Z-12 prototype vehicles quickly proved to be popular due to a well-crafted advertising campaign and adept engineering team which demonstrated the prototype's impressive feature set and unparalleled functionality in the unpopulated remote territories of both [[Luna]] and [[Mars]]. AMG claimed that the vehicle that could "go anywhere and do anything". Within the first eight months of the Z-12 prototype's existence, AMG received over three dozen exclusivity contracts. Most of these contracts came from the [[Colonial Military Administration]]. By [[2321]], AMG Transport Dynamics worked with the CMA and established a deal to cover all of their land-based transportation needs. Around the time of this deal, the Z-12 became integrated into the M12 Force Application Vehicle. In addition, a pneumatically-powered swivel mount and armored body panels were added to the vehicle.<ref name="waypointuni"/>

By [[2329]], the M12 FAV had become the most common all-terrain vehicle in service with the military—closely followed by the [[Mongoose]] and [[Civet]] vehicle lines that were also produced by AMG. CMA personnel began to refer to the M12 as the "Warthog", first establishing the vehicle's nickname. Eventually, the Warthog was adopted by the [[United Nations Space Command]]. More than a dozen iterative changes were added to the Warthog, and over two centuries later, after its original creation and design, the M12 Warthog remained the standard utility vehicle in UNSC service. Due to how commonplace the Warthog is, all UNSC personnel are required to know how to operate and maintain an M12 Warthog, regardless of military speciality or branch of service.<ref name="waypointuni"/>

==Design details==
[[File:Halo Wars 2 Blitz Card Guard Upgraded Warthog.png|left|thumb|250px|The Armored Warthog, featuring increased armor.]]
The Warthog is a four-wheel drive, all-terrain utility vehicle<ref name="CU"/> capable of going over any obstacle without difficulty. Under the hood the M12's power is generated by a forward-housed low-profile liquid-cooled hydrogen-injected ICE I/C plant, coupled with an automatic infinitely variable transmission (IVT).<ref name="Top Gear">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/video/top-gear-talks-halo-warthog/2e805e8d-6a6d-4724-9bd8-dc010a2c9e55 '''Halo.xbox.com:''' ''TOP GEAR TALKS HALO WARTHOG'']</ref> The hydrogen fuel is burned at a very high temperature with a synthetic carbon/silicon catalyst to achieve even better fuel consumption. This hydrogen engine is the standard among all UNSC ground (and most air) based vehicles, replacing fossil fuel-based engines some 400 years ago. The Warthog features a [[Graf/Hauptman solar/saline actuator]], which is capable of converting up to twelve liters of fresh, brackish or salt water into hydrogen on the fly. Detritus from the process is compacted on board and disposed of manually by the crew. This allows the Warthog to travel 790 kilometers (490 miles) before it needs to be refueled, a range that can be easily extended by the addition of any container capable of holding liquid. Older models boast a fully independent swing-arm suspension system and four in-hub wheel motors.<ref name="change">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=896 '''Bungie.net''': ''The AMG Civilian Warthog'']</ref>


The Warthog is a huge, unwieldy, difficult to steer vehicle — until a user learns how to drive it properly. With proper application of the hand, or "e-brake" the M12 can actually turn on a dime. Massive disc brakes and its automatic braking systems allow the vehicle to come to a near immediate, but controlled stop should the driver be ejected, or choose to leave the vehicle. The Warthog's tires have moved away from previous inert-gas pocket inflation with far more resilient and superior burst-proof single unit nanotube skeletons. They provide the buoyancy and ride of gas-pocket tires, but are almost indestructible, allowing the M12 to easily roll through situations that would leave other vehicles disabled and vulnerable. The relatively massive tires are a joint project between [[Michelin-Vance]] and AMG<ref name="change"/>, and are manufactured by [[PUMA]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_8u5ptgcaI ''Youtube'', Microsoft , Worlds Reimagined: A Mixed Reality Experience powered by Microsoft]</ref>
;Needed parameters


The Warthog shares parts – and handling characteristics – with the [[Spade]] and its sibling frontier trucks, which means that many recruits are already proficient with basic vehicle maintenance and off-road driving skills before they ever arrive at UNSC boot camp.<ref name="CF100">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/sweet-centennial '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Canon Fodder #100: Sweet Centennial'']</ref> However, the vehicle is so ubiquitous that all UNSC personnel are required to know how to operate and maintain the M12 FAV, regardless of military specialty or branch of service.<ref name="waypointuni"/>

Its description as a "force application vehicle" is spectacularly accurate; the Warthog has both offensive and defensive capabilities, as well as intel gathering and supply transport and practically any other task that can be accomplished by a wheeled vehicle. The Warthog can be configured to become a troop carrier, armament carrier, ambulance, reconnaissance vehicle, or communications vehicle.<ref name="Bnet"/><ref name="oldwaypoint">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/gallery/warthog/a62f8240-352f-4dcf-9de4-56096a7e9caa '''Halo Waypoint Pre-2014 Universe Section''': ''Warthog''] (defunct, backup on [https://web.archive.org/web/20110316011032/http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/gallery/warthog/a62f8240-352f-4dcf-9de4-56096a7e9caa Archive.org])</ref> All M12-based vehicles are designed to travel both on and off-road, in all weather conditions.<ref name="Bnet"/> Removing the Warthog's turret and replacing it is a fairly simple process<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', ''[[List of REQ cards/Vehicles|Woodland Scout Warthog REQ card description]]''</ref>, meaning that vehicles can be reconfigured to serve in roles ranging from light reconnaissance to troop/ cargo transport to anti-armor in a relative short period of time. As such, Warthog variants are typically classed according to their bed-mounted weapon systems.<ref>'''[[Halo 4 Interactive Guide]]''' - ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130430133353/http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/403b8b2a-e51a-40b1-9707-d378f37a7cfa/warthog Warthog]''</ref> These are;

However, not all Warthogs are deployed for combat. Some vehicles deployed for recon and transportation or in the case of resource shortages may have their turret removed<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', ''[[List of REQ cards/Vehicles|Urban Scout Warthog REQ card description]]''</ref>, and are given the name of '''[[Scout Warthog]]'''. In essence, the Scout Warthog is the "purest" form of the Warthog chassis, and many variants of Warthog are classified based on the base chassis rather than the weapon they carry. The two primary chassis variants of the Warthog are the '''[[M12 Warthog]]''' and '''[[M12B Warthog]]'''.

By late [[2552]], however, the vehicle chassis known as the M12B Warthog<ref name="T-shirt"/> had begun circulation<ref>'''[[Halo: Fireteam Raven]]'''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo: Spartan Strike]]'''</ref>, seeing deployment in the last battles of the war and coming to prominence in the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|Post-War]] period.<ref>'''[[Halo 4]]'''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo Wars 2]]'''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo Infinite]]'''</ref> It incorporated side compartments into the body, features a more angular body style, utility bars over the hood and around the bed, and several other largely cosmetic changes, while keeping a similar design to the first chassis. This design typically carries several Jerrycans filled with water to be rendered into hydrogen for the engine. It has a lighting system of 24 LED brake light and ULED headlights. This chassis has a programmable nano-prismatic paint to refract color at any chromacity, depending on the vehicle's destination. A security bit was designed to prevent marines from tinkering with the finish, based on early and embarrassing experiences of the tech's deployment.<ref name="Altervista"/> Unlike most models used throughout the Human-Covenant War, this chassis uses a swing-axle system, a redesigned transmission and drive shafts, and constant-velocity joints. The M12B also features adjustable, non-pneumatic "smartwheels".<ref name="T-shirt"/>

===Insurrectionist Warthogs===
The '''''Sahara''-class heavy prowler'''<ref name="VIS">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 190''</ref> is a class of [[UNSC prowler|stealth vessel]] in the [[UNSC Navy]]. Like most prowlers, ships of the class are designated with the [[hull classification symbol]] '''PRO''', followed by a numeric designation.<ref name="mythos">'''[[Halo Mythos]]''', ''page 140''</ref>{{Ref/Site|Id=HUProwler|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/oni-prowler|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=ONI Prowler|D=19|M=01|Y=2021}}
Aside from its military application by the CMA and UNSC, the Warthog has seen widespread popularity among civilian populaces and [[Insurrectionist]]s. During the Insurrection, Insurrectionist forces under [[Howard Graves]] would utilise modified Warthogs at their base [[Camp New Hope]], in which the vehicles would have a middle section welded between the front and back, creating armoured [[Warthog armored personnel carrier|Warthog APCs]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 34''</ref> In 2558, the [[New Colonial Alliance]] leader [[Ilsa Zane]] would operate a personally modified Warthog capable of firing [[Argent V missile]]s.<ref>'''[[Hunt the Truth]]''', ''[[Hunt the Truth Season 2|Season 2]] - Episode 6 - Transcendance''</ref>


===Civilian Warthogs===
==Overview==
[[Civilian]]s also employ the Warthog for everyday transportation and racing. The most common variant of civilian Warthog is the '[[Hog]], a vehicle with variants on both the M12 and M12B chassis'. However, several Warthog variants have also been produced, designed for racing including the [[M12 GT]], [[M12S Warthog CST]] and [[550 Scuderia StarSpeed M-12R]]. The latter variant, colloquially referred to as the '''Rally Warthog''', is designed by AMG's competition division for racing on [[New Carthage]], and has seen many victories. The rally races it is involved in often involve dangerous fauna and other competitors, meaning some Rally Warthogs are equipped as Warthog LRVs.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-driving-force '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Driving Force'']</ref>
===Design details===
Like most prowlers, the ''Sahara''-class is equipped with stealth systems that mask the ship from both visual and sensor detection. These systems include an [[active camouflage]], leaving the prowler nearly invisible to the naked eye.<ref name="catherine">'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Catherine|S1E3 ''Catherine'']]</ref>  


One AMG pitch involving the inclusion of Subanese crystal afterburners, named [[Project HOGSTICKER]], would never reach production.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-needle-me-this '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Needle Me This'']</ref>
The ship has a ventral launch bay fitted with hook systems used to deploy [[EVA]] maneuvering vehicles.{{Ref/Reuse|mythos}}


===Corporate Warthogs===
===Armament===
[[File:H5G Turret Corp.png|right|thumb|250px|A Liang-Dortmund Warthog.]]
Since prowlers usually avoid combat, besides active combat monitoring and recording, the armaments and weapon systems on a ''Sahara''-class prowler is limited. They are armed with several [[XEV9-Matos nonlinear pulse cannon]]s, allowing the prowlers to protect themselves if they are attacked. ''Sahara''-class prowlers are usually equipped with at least one [[Shiva-class nuclear missile#M947 Shiva|M947 Shiva Nuclear Delivery System]]. The main armament of the prowler is its [[M441 Hornet Remote Explosive System]]. With the mines, the prowlers lay out minefields in space for enemy ships to unknowingly enter.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}
Private corporate entities such as the [[Liang-Dortmund Corporation]] have been authorised employ military Warthogs, among other military hardware. Following the Human-Covenant War, the threat of Insurrectionist, [[Kig-Yar]] pirate<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', ''[[List of REQ cards/Vehicles|Corp Warthog REQ card description]]''</ref> or [[Covenant remnants|Covenant remnant]] raids, and the possibility of attack by alien megafauna<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', ''[[List of REQ cards/Vehicles|Corp Gauss Warthog REQ card description]]''</ref>, have necessitated the employment of corporate-branded vehicles sporting chainguns and gauss cannons. Due to backdoor deals involving bribery, however, even rocket Warthog platforms have been deemed necessary for corporate use by government officials.<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', ''[[List of REQ cards/Vehicles|Corp Rocket Warthog REQ card description]]''</ref>


===Other usage===
==Operational history==
By [[2553]], some [[Sangheili]] had brought Warthogs back to Sanghelios as personal war trophies.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''Chapter two''</ref>
''Sahara''-class prowlers had entered service with the UNSC Navy by [[2526]], where each of the three squadrons of [[Task Force Yama]] were led by a heavy prowler.<ref name="HSS5">'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''', ''Chapter 5''</ref> In [[2553]], after the [[Human-Covenant War]], the ''Sahara''-class prowler {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} was used as transportation for the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] black ops team known as [[Kilo-Five]].<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page ??''</ref> In [[2558]], the ''Sahara''-class prowler {{UNSCShip|Aladdin}} was used to transport [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]], incarcerated by ONI for war crimes, to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.{{Ref/Reuse|catherine}} In [[2558#May|May 2558]], [[SPARTAN-IV]]s [[Naiya Ray]] and [[Gabriel Thorne]] used a ''Sahara''-class prowler to investigate a [[biological agent]], created by several [[Kig-Yar]], on [[Ven III]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 11|Issue #11]]''</ref>


== UNSC personnel remarks ==
==Ships of the line==
The Warthog was featured in the report [[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present]] by Doctor [[Robert McLees (ship designer)|Robert Mclees]], in which he interviewed UNSC personnel on their thoughts on the Warthog.<ref name="BNet"/>
*[[PRO-49776]] - Used to conduct [[Operation: WARM BLANKET]] in 2544.
*"It's [the M12] sort of a bear to wheel around, but that's something you gotta expect – the thing is twice the size of my granddad's car – but it's something you get used to pretty damned quick."
*{{UNSCShip|Aladdin}} - Transported [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} in [[2558]].  
*"On the battlefield speed is life and the M12 has that in spades – having a great big damn gun don’t hurt, either."
*{{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} (PRO-46328) - Used by [[Kilo-Five]] in the summer of [[2553]].
*"One word: handbrake."
*{{UNSCShip|Sahara}} - The [[Wikipedia:lead ship|lead ship]] of the class.
*"I have yet to come up against an obstacle that the Warthog couldn't go right over."
*{{UNSCShip|Silent Joe}} - Used by Rear Admiral Serin Osman in December 2553.
*"The Sarge hates it when we ram stuff, says the 'Hog ain't indestructible. But it sure feels like it when you're plowing through a crowd of startled Grunts, though."
*{{UNSCShip|Dusk}} - Present during the Battle of Onyx.
*"The seats are unreal! I was thinking of pulling a set out of a parts vehicle and shipping them home...but the wife shut it down – says everyone would be able to tell where they came from."
*"Look at these legs – pretty nice, huh? It’s totally from getting in and out'a the 'Hog's thirty-six inch damn step height."
 
==Gameplay==
The Warthog can be found in every ''Halo'' game, and is a ubiquitous vehicle on most mid-large multiplayer maps. They are typically capable of rapidly traversing a map and, when crewed by a communicating driver-gunner pair, are capable of dominating infantry and vehicles alike. However, they are prone to flipping, and can be easily countered by grenades or other explosive weapons. In addition, they are highly susceptible to anti-personnel weapons fire due to their lack of armour protecting the crew. In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and onwards, sustained fire from weapons such as [[battle rifle]]s and [[DMR]]s will quickly wear down a Warthog and cause it to explode.
 
== Trivia ==
{{Linkbox|gameplay=yes|gallery=yes|gallerypage=Images of Warthog}}
=== Production notes ===
*The Warthog was originally going to be a Humvee-like vehicle in the early stages of development of ''Halo: Combat Evolved.''<ref>'''Halo 3''' Legendary Edition bonus disc</ref>
*[[WETA Workshop]], based in [[Wikipedia:New Zealand|New Zealand]], built a two-third-scale, operating Warthog. It has several numbers on it, some possibly pertaining to that specific model or maybe even that specific Warthog, including, but not limited to, 5c8611, N/AAV-20 (a label similar to the M/AAV-20 that can be seen on the Halo Reach-era Warthog), and others. WETA's Warthog is almost accurate in every function, including a "working" minigun, four-wheel steering, digital displays, air bags, and the ability to "crab crawl". Stamps portraying the number and type of Covenant troops killed can be seen on the dash. This Warthog is featured in the ''[[Halo: Landfall]]'' live-action film series.<ref>[http://www.wetanz.com/halo-3-shorts/ '''WETA Workshop''': ''Halo 3'']</ref>
**Some Bungie employees were given the chance to drive WETA Workshop's Warthog. Three members of the Bungie team were driving the Warthog around a parking lot when they scraped the side of it on a small wooden structure built onto the side of a wall.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIy-h6bAPMo '''YouTube''': ''Bungie Crashes a Real Warthog'']</ref>
*Another useable Warthog vehicle was created by Parker Brothers Concepts for the ''[[Halo: Outpost Discovery]]'' [[Hall of History]] event. The vehicle was built on a Nissan Leaf, as 343 Industries wanted the vehicle to be electric.<ref>[https://vimeo.com/339189349 ''vimeo'', Parker Brothers BTS Video]</ref>
*A 2552 M12B Warthog from ''Halo 4'' was recreated by Aria Group in conjunction with several gigabytes of data provided by 343 Industries for the Petersen Automatic Museum's science fiction vehicles exhibit, to be displayed alongside vehicles such as the DeLorean from ''Back to the Future''. This vehicle was created over six months on the body of an H1 Hummer, and was downscaled by 12% of the in-game model's size to be street-legal to drive.<ref>[https://www.petersen.org/2557-amg-transport-dynamics-m12-b-warthog '''Petersen Automotive Museum''' - ''2012 Halo 4 "Warthog"'']</ref>
*During ''[[Halo 2]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s development, [[Bungie]] considered [[Cut Halo 2 Warthogs|creating more specialized Warthog variants]] including arctic, transport, and jungle models. The first model was later featured in ''Halo 3'' as the M864 Arctic, while the latter models were named in  a [[Bungie.net]] article on the Warthog written in the lead-up to ''Halo 3''<ref name="BNet"/>, and later featured in the ''Halo Encyclopedia'' and later on ''[[Halo Waypoint]]''.<ref name="waypointuni"/>
 
=== Miscellaneous ===
*A warthog is a wild member of the pig family that lives in Africa, in keeping with the UNSC's tradition of naming ground-based vehicles after real animals, with the exceptions of the [[Cyclops]] and [[Gremlin]], which are named after mythical creatures.
*A remote-controlled toy Warthog was one of the first Xbox 360 Avatar accessories available after the August 11, 2009 dashboard update that introduced Avatar accessories. It is available from the Xbox Live Avatar shop for 320 Microsoft Points, under ''Halo 3: ODST''-themed accessories.
*In ''Halo 3'', ''Halo 3: ODST'', and ''Halo: Reach'', the Warthog's tires are printed with the word ''PUMA''. This is a reference to an episode of ''[[Red vs Blue]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s in which Simmons and Grif argue with Sarge about whether to call the vehicle a ''Puma'' or ''Warthog''.
*The ''Halo 4'' Warthog is featured in ''Forza Motorsport 4''.<ref>[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-08-26-halo-4-warthog-in-forza-4 '''Eurogamer.net''': ''Halo 4 Warthog in Forza 4'']</ref> It is not drivable in game, though it appears in the Autovista mode where players can examine various details of the cars. The Warthog descriptions feature narration by [[Cortana]]. It is unlocked by unlocking all other non-DLC cars in Autovista.<ref>[http://kotaku.com/5846754/how-to-unlock-halos-warthog-in-forza-4 '''Kotaku''': How to Unlock Halo's Warthog In Forza 4]</ref> The developers considered adding the Warthog as a drivable vehicle, but due to ''Forza''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s focus on technical accuracy, the Warthog would have been difficult to implement due to its large size, unusual 4-wheel drive mechanics, unusual tires, and the various fictional technologies employed.<ref>However, it is a playable vehicle in Forza Horizon 3.[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-09-23-why-you-cant-drive-forza-4s-warthog '''Eurogamer''':  Why you can't drive Forza 4's Warthog]</ref>

The Sahara-class heavy prowler[10] is a class of stealth vessel in the UNSC Navy. Like most prowlers, ships of the class are designated with the hull classification symbol PRO, followed by a numeric designation.[6][11]

Overview

Design details

Like most prowlers, the Sahara-class is equipped with stealth systems that mask the ship from both visual and sensor detection. These systems include an active camouflage, leaving the prowler nearly invisible to the naked eye.[12]

The ship has a ventral launch bay fitted with hook systems used to deploy EVA maneuvering vehicles.[6]

Armament

Since prowlers usually avoid combat, besides active combat monitoring and recording, the armaments and weapon systems on a Sahara-class prowler is limited. They are armed with several XEV9-Matos nonlinear pulse cannons, allowing the prowlers to protect themselves if they are attacked. Sahara-class prowlers are usually equipped with at least one M947 Shiva Nuclear Delivery System. The main armament of the prowler is its M441 Hornet Remote Explosive System. With the mines, the prowlers lay out minefields in space for enemy ships to unknowingly enter.[10]

Operational history

Sahara-class prowlers had entered service with the UNSC Navy by 2526, where each of the three squadrons of Task Force Yama were led by a heavy prowler.[13] In 2553, after the Human-Covenant War, the Sahara-class prowler UNSC Port Stanley was used as transportation for the Office of Naval Intelligence black ops team known as Kilo-Five.[14] In 2558, the Sahara-class prowler UNSC Aladdin was used to transport Dr. Catherine Halsey, incarcerated by ONI for war crimes, to the UNSC Infinity.[12] In May 2558, SPARTAN-IVs Naiya Ray and Gabriel Thorne used a Sahara-class prowler to investigate a biological agent, created by several Kig-Yar, on Ven III.[15]
