Phantom: Difference between revisions

The Phantom is a type of craft utilized by multiple factions, including the [[Covenant]] and various [[Covenant remnants|splinter groups]], such as the [[Banished]], the [[Swords of Sanghelios]], and [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]]. Typically used as a [[dropship]], the Phantom is commonly seen equipped with a [[heavy plasma cannon]] at the nose of the craft, and a [[Class-1 directed energy cannon]] mounted at each of the Phantom's two side doors. However, specialized variants can be deployed for specific mission objectives, including heavy fire support with guided plasma torpedoes or special operations deployment behind enemy lines using the cover of active camouflage.  

The Phantom often holds dozens of troops in it's bay, and often is used to deploy as well as supporting troops, as later versions had heavy armor and advanced shields capable of shrugging off heavy arms fire such as the [[Rocket Launcher#Universe and lore|rocket launcher]]. These advantages, as well as having three supporting turrets, makes it excellent for deploying and supporting troops on the battlefield.
