M510 Mammoth: Difference between revisions

==Trivia==

*~~As is typical~~ of ~~UNSC~~ vehicles, the ~~Mammoth~~ is named after an ~~Earth animal; its name is also indicative of its larger size~~ relative to the ~~similar M313~~ Elephant~~, as mammoths are often regarded as being essentially larger versions of modern elephants~~.

*Following the UNSC tradition of naming ground vehicles after animals the M510 is named after the [[Wikipedia:Mastodon|Mammoth]], an extinct relative to the Elephant.

*In the the ''Halo 4'' campaign level [[Reclaimer (level)|Reclaimer]], the "Prime" emblem can be found in the interior of the Mammoth.

*Early in development, the Mammoth (then named the Tortoise) was conceived as a more literal base on wheels. This version is capable of deploying into siege mode with bracing pistons, a retractable sniper nest, and a deployable landing pad which could accommodate VTOL craft.
