'''''Victor 398''''' was a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] dropship that crashed into a [[Valhalla|mountain gorge]] on [[Installation 00]] during [[Battle of Installation 00|combat]] in [[2552#December|December 2552]]. The crash, which the crew barely survived, scattered the Pelican's cargo throughout the valley. ''V-398''{{'}}s rear hatch was sealed by the surviving crew members.

'''Victor 398''' was a [[UNSC]] [[Pelican]] dropship that crashed into the mountain gorge that is the [[Halo 3]] [[multiplayer]] level, [[Valhalla]].<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/content.aspx?link=h3betaValhalla Bungie.net]</ref>  The crash, which the crew barely survived, also scattered the [[Pelican|Pelican's]] contents throughout the valley. V-398's rear hatch is sealed, presumably by the surviving crew members, which denies access to the bird's interior. It was most likely on an ammunition run, due to the several [[Resupply Canister Type-C Capsule|Type C Resupply Capsules]] scattered throughout the area. It is unknown how the Pelican went down, though it's a possibility that the forerunner cannons atop the "bases" in [[Valhalla]] may have accidentally hit the Pelican. This is unlikely, however, because for the Pelican to come to rest in it's current position it would have had to come down on a path that does not pass over them. Due to Valhalla's location on the [[Installation 00|Ark]], it is more likely that V-398 was shot down during the [[Second Battle of Installation 00|Battle of the Ark]]. In the Machima series [[Red vs. Blue]], this is the ship Tex crash lands in.
In [[2558|February 2558]], ''Victor 398''{{'}}s crash would be mirrored by that of [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] [[Mountain Squad]]'s Pelican. This crash took place in a [[Two Giants|nearly identical canyon]] on the shield world [[Requiem]].{{Ref/SpOps|Catherine|Spartan Mountain}}

''Victor 398''{{'}}s crash position is the same as that of ''[[Victor 933]]'', most likely as a deliberate reference to ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.
