The Elephant is a mobile command base and repair vehicle. It can hold as many soldiers as you want can ride in it, and a [[Mongoose]] spawns in its forward hold. It is armed with a forward [[Elephant - M41 LAAG|M41 LAAG]] on the top right and a [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun]] on  the mid left.<ref>''[[Halo 3 Epsilon]]''</ref> It is a three storied vehicle <ref>http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3161595</ref> with the bottom story, the respawn locale that opens out into the rear cargo tray, the second story, a walkway around the cargo ramp and leads onto the driver's cabin then a small, elevated third story where the M41 LAAG is assembled. It features a crane, numerous firing ports and elevated positions for defending it.<ref>''Famitsu Magazine''</ref>  It has four tracks set up on each side of the chassis. Its chassis is as high as it is long, providing stability.  An IGN video shows its top speed, driver's cabin and turrets.

In [[multiplayer]], it can spawn troops, and holds both the flag and the capture point for certain multiplayer maps on [[Capture The Flag]] mode. Therefore, in [[CTF]] you can actually bring the Capture Point to the enemy flag, although this makes it easier for the enemy to steal yours.

The elephant is one of the best weapons on huge battles. These mobile command bases can spawn troops and vehicles into battle quickly. Although it may not seem possible, the Elephant cannot be destroyed. In addition to the Elephant's indestructibility, it also grants the pilot a few advantages. Due to the indestructible nature of the elephant, the pilot is immune to damage from frontal fire, though rarely [[Spartan Laser]] blasts may penetrate the driver's window and kill him. However, the pilot is not immune to damage and any shots from behind will hurt him as they would normally.
