Several [[Sentinel]] weapons were seemingly cut from ''Halo 2''.

===Sentinel Needler===

During earlier stages of ''Halo 2'', the game was intended to include a [[Cut Halo 2 enemies#Needler Sentinel|Needler Sentinel]] as an enemy.

===Sentinel Grenade Launcher===

Similarly to the Sentinel Needler, ''Halo 2'' game files mention a "Sentinel Grenade Launcher" in the text pickup strings. Some unused HUD icons remain in the files for the weapon, though little is known of its intended function or purpose.

===Sentinel Enforcer Charged Bolt===

Little is known of this weapon, save for its name. Some unused HUD icons (shown below) likely correspond with the weapon.
