The '''Barug'qel Workshop Attack Bike''' is a variant in the [[Chopper]] line of vehicles, used by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


==Overview==
The [[Banished]] utilize '''modified [[Chopper]]s'''.<ref name="PL1"/>
===Design details===
The Baruq'qel Choppers are much in the same vein as their regular and [[Covenant]]-era [[Barukaza Workshop Chopper|counterparts]]. They consist of two massive wheels on the front, and a driver located at the vehicle's rear - protected from enemy fire. The flanks of the vehicle leave the driver exposed to enemy fire. The vehicle is equipped with two [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker]] autocannons, which in themselves are capable of being upgraded to fire explosive shrapnel rounds.{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Chopper}}


The front of the vehicle is equipped with heavy armor plating and massive spikes, capable of allowing the vehicle to ram enemy targets and punch through light vehicles such as [[Warthog]]s. These blades form the Chopper's namesake, and a reflection of the Brutes' savage culture.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}
==Operational history==
 
Choppers became popular among the Banished that it became a competition to become a driver in outrider squadrons.<ref name="PL1"/>
===Development history===
The Barug'qel Chopper was developed by the eponymous [[Barug'qel Workshop]], and is mass-manufactured through the [[Armory of Gethrog]]. It was designed to be a much more heavily-armoured vehicle, designed to plow through fortifications and enemy vehicles with ease.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


===Usage===
In [[2559#March|March 2559]], the Banished used their own modified version of the Chopper during operations against the crew of the UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'' on Installation 00.<ref name="HW2">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]'''</ref>
The Banished Chopper variants are extremely coveted and popular vehicles. Troops under [[Atriox]]'s command often compete with each other to become a Chopper driver in the Banished outrider squadrons, with these competitions resulting in many deaths and injuries among Banished personnel.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}

In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'' Choppers can be built by all Banished leaders besides [[Let 'Volir]] and [[Ripa 'Moramee]] at the [[Banished outpost]]. As a scout unit Choppers can gather resources. Choppers do well against infantry, okay against vehicles, and poorly against aircraft and structures.
