An '''Excavator''' is a class of walker constructs established by the [[Covenant]] and later used by its [[Covenant remnant|remnants]]. As their name implies, vehicles of this class were used as excavators and mining platforms. Excavators were also used by the Covenant as heavy weapon platforms, mobile bases, and combat engineering vehicles.<ref name="universe">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/scarab '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Scarab'']</ref> | An '''Excavator''' is a class of walker constructs established by the [[Covenant]] and later used by its [[Covenant remnant|remnants]].

The Excavator class encompasses several lines of vehicles, including the [[Type-58 Harvester|Harvester]]s, [[Type-30 Locust|Locusts]], and the comparatively ubiquitous family of [[Scarab|Scarabs]]. Excavators often make extensive use of [[Lekgolo]], with the worm colonies bound together with the vehicle's control systems. The Lekgolo were rarely given complete control of an Excavator, and a supervising Covenant officer and [[Covenant military|military personnel]] usually accompany the vehicle.<ref name="universe"/> The Lekgolo meta-colonies that operate | The Excavator class encompasses several lines of vehicles, including the [[Type-58 Harvester|Harvester]]s, [[Type-30 Locust|Locusts]], and the comparatively ubiquitous family of [[Scarab|Scarabs]].
