Warthog armored personnel carrier
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ship The Warthog Armored Personnel Carrier is a United Rebel Front ground vehicle.
It is an uncommon variant of the standard M12 Warthog LRV, but with a passenger section capable of holding ten passengers bolted between the driver section and the gunner section, resulting in a significant increase in overall length. Conceptually, it is a cousin of the Warthog Troop Transport. However, the Troop Transport Warthog only seats three Marines in the back.
The passenger section is not particularly well armored, being vulnerable the armor-piercing ammunition of most UNSC small arms fire. This section appears to have a roof with a sliding armored section on it, similar in concept to the sun roof of a modern car, perhaps for quick loading and unloading or troops and supplies and to shield its loads from the elements, and any small arms fire.[1]
Trivia
- One was seen used by the United Rebel Front on the planet Victoria in the 111 Tauri System by the SPARTAN-IIs of Blue Team in a field mission.[2]. It was used to transport the nukes the Spartans were sent to extract.
- Contrary to popular belief, it is not the transport Warthog seen in early Halo 2 renders or the Halo 3 E3 video. That is the M831 TT Warthog.
- It only appears in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx.
