''Tart-Cart'' is the personal dropship of [[Kilo-Five]] and is their main source of planetside transport. ''Tart-Cart'' was used to transport [[Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] to [[State of Vadam|Vadam]], [[Sanghelios]], for his peace talk with [[Arbiter]] [[Thel Vadam]]. It was later used to transport Kilo-Five into [[Trevelyan|Shield World 006]] to apprehend [[Catherine Halsey]]. Later, after dropping off [[Evan Phillips]] on Vadam, Devereaux transported [[Malcolm Geffen]] and [[Vasily Beloi]] to [[Venezia]] for their meeting with [[Mike Spenser]]. After Kilo-Five lost contact with Phillips due to the attack in [[Ontom]], [[Serin Osman]] ordered the rest of Kilo-Five back immediately to find out what happened. | ''Tart-Cart'' is the personal dropship of [[Kilo-Five]] and is their main source of planetside transport.

After arriving at Sanghelios, Devereaux | After arriving at Sanghelios, Devereaux transported Kilo-Five to Ontom to search for Phillips in the [[Temple of the Abiding Truth]]. After they realized that Phillips was no longer in the temple, they evacuated as a Sangheili mob stormed the area. BB eventually located Phillips through an intercepted communication and they quickly traveled to [[Nes'alun Keep]] in [[Acroli]] to evacuate him. During the evacuation, ''Tart-Cart'' was damaged by a [[Banshee]], forcing Devereaux to put her down for repairs. They were eventually forced to accept parts from the [[Sangheili]] as Devereaux could not fix it on her own. It took several hours but she was eventually able to make repairs. During their flight back to ''Stanley'' there was a fire and they had to re-route to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}. There, a pair of [[Huragok]] not only fully repaired the ship but they made several improvements to it as well, including [[slipspace]] capability.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 318''</ref> They also installed instant [[FTL communications]], and more stealth features than ONI originally outfitted it with.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 86''</ref> | ||
In April 2553, Kilo-Five was given another Pelican fitted with the same upgrades, dubbed ''[[Bogof]]''.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 292-293''</ref> | |||
