The Jiralhanae also had their own array of fearsome weaponry. These became far more frequently used once the Jiralhanae were made the leading members of the Covenant military. The [[Type-25 Spiker]] was the standard weapon of the lower ranking Jiralhanae, along with their [[Type-25 Brute Plasma Rifle|own version]] of the Type-25 plasma rifle. Higher ranked Jiralhanae were most often equipped with [[Type-25 Brute Shot]]s. [[Type-52 Mauler]]s were often used by Jiralhanae [[Jiralhanae Stalker|stealth operatives]]. The Jiralhanae also fielded their own types of grenades - the [[Type-2 spike grenade]]s and [[Type-3 firebomb]] saw widespread usage towards the end of the Human-Covenant War. Jiralhanae officers sometimes carried their own [[Jiralhanae combat knife|combat knives]].

The Covenant military also boasted an impressive number of vehicles. [[Type-32 Ghost]]s were used for reconnaissance and rapid attack roles. The [[Type-26 Wraith]] was the standard tank - used as the standard armored ground vehicle, it was very effective in anti-armor and anti-infanty roles. The Covenant military used the [[Type-52 Anti-Aircraft Wraith]] against hostile aircraft. The [[Type-48 Revenant]] was used as mobile artillery support for infantry, while the {{Pattern|Wuzum|Spectre}} was used more for mobile suppression fire and troop transportation. Infrequently used, the [[Type-29 Shadow]] provided troop and light vehicle transportation in areas inaccessible to dropships. Jiralhanae vehicles included the [[Type-25 Chopper]] and the [[Type-52 Prowler]].

A range of excavation platforms were repurposed by the Covenant military during the war against humanity. The {{Pattern|Shua'ee|Locust}} and the far larger [[Scarab]] platforms were used in combative roles against enemies of the Covenant. Many varieties of the Scarab were employed, with the most common being the {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}}. The larger Protos model of the T-47 was used less frequently than the more combat-ready Deutoros model.
