AV-19 SkyHawk
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ship The Skyhawk is a United Nations Space Command fighter/interceptor [1].
Background
They are equipped with four 50mm cannons, as well as Scorpion Anti-Tank missiles. Several of these craft were located at Fairchild Field on Reach, and one was dispatched by Colonel James Ackerson to attack the SPARTAN-117 and Cortana during their test of the MJOLNIR Mark V Battle Armor and its new shield technology in 2552.[2] Skyhawks are VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft, meaning they don't need a runway to land or take off.

The Skyhawk has been modded into Halo Custom Edition. It can be found on the map Extinction. However it is not as it is described in the databank. It is a re-skin of the map Coldsnap's jet.
