The '''Sentinel Eliminators''' are a variant of the pervasive [[Aggressor Sentinel]].{{Ref/Game|Id=H2|H2|Detail=While not named canonically, within the ''Halo 2'' game files these Sentinels are named Sentinel Eliminators.}}

==Overview==
===Operational history===
During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], these Sentinels were deployed to contain the [[Flood]] outbreak on [[Installation 05|the ring]]. Several of these Sentinels fought against [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee and his forces on the installation.{{Ref/Level|H2|Sacred Icon}}{{Ref/Level|H2|Quarantine Zone}}

These sentinels were also present on [[Installation 07]]{{Ref/Map|HINF|Fragmentation}}, where they took part in the [[Battle for Zeta Halo|conflict]] between the [[UNSC]] and the [[Banished]] under the direction of [[Monitor]] [[Adjutant Resolution]]{{Ref/Level|HINF|The Sequence}}.

==In-game information==
Sentinel Eliminators first appeared in-game in ''[[Halo 2]]'' and its ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary|Anniversary]]'' remake, appearing on the levels [[Sacred Icon]] and [[Quarantine Zone]] as enemies for the player to fight against. Eliminators are given the more powerful [[Sentinel Eliminator beam]] and have a four second delay before their shields recharge and a one second recharge time, compared to the eight seconds delay and two second charge time of the [[Aggressor Sentinel Major|Major]]. In-game, the Eliminators are given the "Captain" enemy flag.

Eliminators appear in ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' as the strongest common variant of Sentinels. They are tougher then their grey counterparts, being the only variant to sport [[Energy shielding]], and wielding the [[Heatwave]] for offense.
They also appear as prop assets on the multiplayer map [[Fragmentation]] - these Sentinels are destroyed and are merely a part of the map's background scenery, rather than an active part of the gameplay experience.

==Production notes==
Sentinel Eliminators primarily appear in the campaign of ''Halo 2''. Though they have never been named in any canonical capacity, the in-game files of ''Halo 2'' refer to them as Eliminators. A common fan-misconception revolves around the use of the name "Sentinel Major" to describe these Sentinels; in actuality, the [[Aggressor Sentinel Major|Major Sentinel]] is a different kind of enemy ''in addition to'' the Eliminators in ''Halo 2''.

A lore stream conducted by [[343 Industries]] writers [[Jeff Easterling]] and [[Kenneth Peters]] indicated that while the eliminators have been discussed internally, as of [[2018]] they had no particular designation for them and just considered them a different kind of Aggressor.{{Ref/YouTube|fYaxRoAf96s|Time=3520|Halo|Halo Lore Stream: The Halo Array|Detail=58:40}}
