An early version of the Anti-Air Wraith found in the March 2007 build of the ''Halo 3'' Beta has an [[Cut Halo 3 vehicles#Early anti-air Wraith|early version]] of the AA Wraith available to spawn on [[Snowbound]] in [[Forge/Halo 3|Forge]]. This early Wraith is purple like the regular mortar counterpart, and boasts a pair of automatic [[plasma cannon]]s as opposed to the fuel rod cannons it has in the final game. | |||
