This missile is used multiple times in the Halo games, used by Pelican dropships to attack the Scarab at the end of [[Metropolis]]. It is used again by Pelicans in the [[Quarantine Zone (level)|Quarantine Zone]], when a [[Flood]]-controlled Pelican flies past and shoots down some [[Sentinel Major]]s and hits the one [[Enforcer]] that is there. It is also on the second Pelican that shows up at the start of the level [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]], though this dropship only fires very rarely. It is also used at the end of [[Sierra 117]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'', to clear out the ending area and allow the Pelican to land and give the player evac to the next level. | This missile is used multiple times in the Halo games, used by Pelican dropships to attack the Scarab at the end of [[Metropolis]].
