==Overview==
The '''Type-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle''',<ref name=chopperfiction>[http://www.bungie.net/projects/halo3/content.aspx?link=chopperfiction '''Bungie.net''': ''The Brute Chopper'']</ref><ref name="visual">'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 31''</ref> commonly known as the '''Brute Chopper''' or simply '''Chopper''' by [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] personnel, is a [[Covenant]] ground assault vehicle used exclusively by the [[Jiralhanae]].
===Design details===
The Chopper serves as a rapid attack and scout vehicle for the Covenant's Jiralhanae troops. The vehicle is characterised most notably by its shape; the front has a pair of extremely large wheels, with the driver located at the back. The driver's seat hovers off the ground when the vehicle is active and is shielded from the front angles by the wheels, though is completely exposed to hostile fire from the sides and back. The front of the vehicle is equipped with a large ramming targe, capable of allowing the Chopper to cut through obstacles in its path at high speeds. The vehicles also come equipped with weapons on either side of the vehicle; early models simply bearing [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker|Spikers]] as improvised weapons, with late production models employing larger quad-mounted 35mm [[spike cannon|heavy spike cannon]]s firing high-explosive spike projectiles.


Choppers weigh around 1.1 tons (1 tonne), and can reach a maximum speed of 74 kph (46 mph),{{Ref/Site|Id=Universe|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/chopper|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Chopper|D=19|M=3|Y=2021}} with a maximum range of 272 kilometres (169 miles).{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}{{Ref/Reuse|ENC243}} While driving, the vehicle can conduct short bursts of speed to briefly double its top speed to 120 kph (75 mph){{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}} thanks to two boosters on either side of the vehicle, capable of allowing the vehicle to plow through armoured barricades and light vehicles.
==Background==
Ironically, the first prototype of the Brute Chopper was built in [[2525]] by a [[Huragok]] named [[Lighter Than Some]], as a well-intentioned peace offering towards the [[human]] population of [[Harvest]]. The pacifistic Huragok built them in imitation of the colonists' mechanized [[JOTUN]] plows, intending them to be used in the same way as their human-made counterparts.


Choppers are often hand-painted by their riders.{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
These vehicles were built from parts taken from a damaged [[Type-25 Spirit]] [[dropship]], which the Huragok had been ordered to repair. The Jiralhanae, oblivious to the Huragok's peaceful intentions, instantly took a liking to the vehicles and decided to outfit them with pairs of [[Type-25 Spiker]]s for battle. As time progressed, the armament mounted on the vehicle was replaced with four [[35mm Autocannon|35mm autocannons]], and the replacement of blades with grinding wheels. Afterwards, the Jiralhanae continued to occasionally manufactured Choppers, until [[Sacred Promissory]] took over production in [[2552]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/chopper '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Chopper'']</ref>


===Development history===
== Overview ==
[[File:H3 Chopper.jpg|thumb|left|A Brute driving a Chopper.]]
The Brute Chopper is a heavily-armored, one-man assault vehicle, kept aloft by a repulsor array on its rear seating and propelled by a massive pair of wheels in the front. The Chopper is designed for a variety of roles, from reconnaissance to anti-armor assaults. Its powerful 35mm autocannons can take down most light ground vehicles with ease, and the large blades on the front can instantly destroy any light armored vehicle by ramming into it. It is capable of short bursts of increased speed up to 120 kph, thanks to a pair of booster vents located on either side of the wheel.
The first Choppers were, somewhat ironically, originally constructed for peaceful intentions by the [[Huragok]] [[Lighter Than Some]]. Intended as a peace offering to [[human]]ity, the engineer built the vehicles from parts of a damaged [[Spirit]] dropship as farming tools - echoing the design of the [[JOTUN Heavy Industries|JOTUN]] agricultural vehicles widely employed by the humans on [[Harvest]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=CH14|CH|Chapter=14}} However, these vehicles were co-opted by [[Maccabeus' clan]] - who believed the vehicles to be weapons of war - and pressed into service during the [[First Battle of Harvest]] as cavalry. These early Choppers were jury-rigged with the Brutes' Spikers as weapons. Following the battle on Harvest, the Brutes made improvements to the design, affixing the vehicles with twin pairs of heavy spike cannons and other modifications to suit the vehicle to its role better.{{Ref/Novel|Id=CH18|CH|Chapter=18}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=CH20|CH|Chapter=20}}{{Ref/Reuse|Universe}} By [[2531]], ramming targes and 35mm autocannons were common weapons employed by the Choppers of the [[Fleet of Glorious Interdiction]], with such autocannons sometimes fitted with stabilizers.{{Ref/Game|HW|Detail=Chopper in-game unit}} The models that followed were constructed using cast-off components in an effort to mimic the raider-outriders that were a common feature of life back on [[Doisac]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


Throughout the [[Human-Covenant War]], the Chopper was primarily manufactured by the Jiralhanae often using scavenged battlefield remains of human and Covenant vehicles. Such Frankenstein-esque vehicles made use of the damaged [[Gravitics|gravity drives]] of the [[Ghost]] and the armor plating of humanity. Choppers were additionally capable of being manufactured by the [[Factory|factories]] attached to [[Covenant citadel]]s. In [[2552]], production of the vehicles was taken over by the [[Sacred Promissory]] of [[High Charity]], primarily focusing on the design created by the [[Armory of Barukaza]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The Promissory were able to use the vast [[Assembly Forges|nanofabrication facilities]] of High Charity to produce a vast fleet of top-of-the-line models. Nonetheless, Jiralhanae psychological quirks and poor maintenance habits meant even these vehicles still retained a more utilitarian look and crude functionality when compared to other similar vehicles produced by the Covenant.{{Ref/Reuse|Universe}}
=== Design ===
The Type-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle is both heavily armored and surprisingly fast. In the front is a massive cyclical engine, which drives the vehicle's wheels and other propulsion systems. Directly connected to it at the back is a small, exposed cockpit that provides the rider little protection. The only defense is offered by the sheer bulk of the wheels, which are large enough to protect a pilot from frontal fire. The wheels are protected by bladed cowlings, which can withstand high-speed collisions with other vehicles. The blades on the wheel are strong enough to take down and cut through any vehicle with the boost except large ones like the [[Type-26 Wraith]] and [[M808 Scorpion]]. Even if it does not destroy the vehicle, a boosted impact may inflict severe damage.


Following the [[Fall of High Charity]] and the end of the war with humanity, the Chopper did not fall out of production despite the loss of the Sacred Promissory. Instead, the vehicle saw proliferation among many Brute [[pack]]s and insurgent groups of other species, with Jiralhanae worlds under the rule of [[Jiralhanae Warlord|warlords]] and the [[Banished]] continuing to produce their own vehicles for use in personal conflicts.{{Ref/Reuse|Universe}}
When activated, the vehicle moves around by the use of two massive wheels on the front of the vehicle. To turn, the whole frontal portion of the vehicle rotates to the left or right. However, the pilot's seat is kept aloft by anti-gravity technology similar to that of the Ghost.
==Gameplay==
=== Advantages ===
The Chopper is frequently described as an "anti-anything" vehicle; its powerful autocannons can destroy most vehicles (except for heavily armored targets) with relative ease, and their projectiles explode with enough force to send targets reeling. The Chopper's heavily armored chassis and boost ability allow it to ram and obliterate other vehicles of equal size or smaller, including other Choppers. A correctly timed boost will destroy light ground vehicles or [[Banshee]]s with a single hit and a [[Hornet]] with four hits.


===Operational history===
The Chopper is also compact enough to fit through tight spaces, including most doors.
[[File:Escalation raids.png|thumb|250px|Jiralhanae raiders pillaging Sangheili settlements with Barukaza Workshop Choppers during the Great Schism.{{Ref/Reuse|HE1}}]]
Choppers were first employed by [[Maccabeus]] and his clan during the [[First Battle of Harvest]] in [[2525]].{{Ref/Reuse|CH20}} They quickly gained usage elsewhere in the Covenant, with Jiralhanae forces of the [[Fleet of Glorious Interdiction]], under the [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftain]] [[Avitus]], employing the vehicles in the [[Battle of Trove]].{{Ref/Game|HW}} The vehicles continued to see use throughout the war, though saw a prominent resurgence in 2552 as vast quantities were manufactured in secret in preparation for the [[Great Schism]].{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}{{Ref/Reuse|Universe}} The war's final days saw the Chopper in a heavy front-line role in the battles of [[Battle for Earth|Earth]] and [[Battle of Installation 00|Installation 00]].{{Ref/Game|H3}}{{Ref/Game|H3ODST}} The vehicle was later one of many pieces of equipment included in Doctor [[Robert McLees (ship designer)|Robert McLees]]' report ''[[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present]]''.{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}


Choppers continue to see proliferation in the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts]] and the ongoing [[Sangheili-Jiralhanae war]].{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE1|HE|Issue=1}} They have become a vital part of the [[Banished]] vehicle fleet, with the organisation employing [[Barug'qel Workshop Chopper|their own designs]] of the vehicle.
=== Disadvantages ===
Choppers lack the ability to strafe; they can only turn while moving forward or backward. Other factors, like a wide turn radius add to their overall relative lack of maneuverability, as compared with [[Type-32 Ghost]]s and even [[M12 Warthog]]s, among others. The rounds of the cannons fly at a relatively slow velocity and have a tendency to arc; at longer ranges it is necessary to lead targets and aim high to compensate. The auto-cannons shoot nearly straight out of the front of the vehicle, so it can become difficult to destroy more maneuverable vehicle targets or fast moving opponents. Chopper drivers are extremely vulnerable from the back, which offers almost no shielding from enemy fire. The lack of maneuverability and low speed make the Chopper a hard vehicle to drive for inexperienced players. The boost function on a Chopper is also limited in the amount of time it can be used, and requires a rest period before it can be used again. Lastly, the Chopper has a very slow reverse speed, making it difficult to retreat.


Jiralhanae Chopper drivers occupy a unique position akin to [[Wikipedia:Cossacks|Cossacks]], holding ranks within Jiralhanae society outside of the [[Covenant military]] command structure.{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}} The vehicles are extremely popular in the [[Banished]], with Banished troops often competing to become a member of the Banished outrider squadrons; a major source of injury and death among [[Atriox]]'s pilots.{{Ref/Game|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Chopper}} Jiralhanae would often hand-paint the sides of their vehicles, with an unknown [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] speculating them to be seen as status symbols or mounts within Jiralhanae culture - rather than mere equipment.{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
A disadvantage which does not appear in-game is the vehicle's travel range. The Chopper can drive a total of 271km (169 miles) before it needs to refuel, which is just over a third of the range of the Warthog and Scorpion, and close to a quarter of the range of a Ghost.<ref name="ENC243"/>

===''Halo Wars''===
* ''“D’ya think they’re compensating for something? I mean, look at the size of the damn thing—it’s bigger than my first apartment.”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
The Chopper makes an appearance in ''Halo Wars'' as a unique unit for the [[Jiralhanae Army Commander|Brute Army Commander]], replacing the Ghost. It also has three upgrades:
* ''“It doesn’t have the room to accommodate a single passenger—and what do they do with their gear? Lash it on to the fenders?”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
*''"Auto Cannons"'' - Equips all Choppers with a pair of autocannons.
* ''“They don’t have a lot in the way of places you can stow your gear—it’s basically a huge engine with a little bucket tied to it for you to stick your ass in. And big golf delta blades bolted to it, can’t forget about the blades.''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
*''"Stabilizers"'' - Increases the autocannons' damage and accuracy.
* ''“All the markings are hand-painted. Well, at least they were on all the ones I’ve seen close up. I think the Type-25 is more of a status symbol for the Brutes—or maybe a mount—than it is a just another piece of equipment.”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
*''"Ramming Targe"'' - Greatly increases ramming damage and vehicle armor.
* ''“Yeah, [[N’tho ‘Sraom]] basically confirmed that—said the riders held specific ranks outside the Covenant military hierarchy structure—that they’re more of a traditional unit like Cossacks or something.”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
* ''“They’re not very fast, but they’re like zombies—every time you turn around there they are breathing down your neck! Don’t help that they’re built like tanks, either.”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}
* ''“With that big damn motor you’d think they’d really fly, wouldn’t you? I wonder if the Covenant romeo echo mike foxtrots slapped a governor on ‘em like our do with the warthog?”''{{Ref/Reuse|bnetchopper}}

The Chopper's origins lie in concept art produced for ''[[Halo 2]]'', with a sketch produced by [[Eddie Smith]] showing a remarkable resemblance to the final design that would end up in the final build of ''[[Halo 3]]''. The design retains the vehicle's general profile, with the only major difference being the inclusion of a canopy on the vehicle's aft.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://visualatrium.blogspot.com/p/concept-art.html|Site=VisualAtrium.net|Page=Concept art|Detail=Eddie Smith's portfolio page|D=19|M=3|Y=2021}} For ''Halo 3'', [[Bungie]] designed the chopper analogous to a motorcycle, considering it a vehicle for "tough guys".{{Ref/Film|[[Halo 3 Limited Edition|''Halo 3'' Limited Edition]] documentary}}

==Operational history==
[[File:Escalation raids.png|thumb|Jiralhanae raiders pillaging Sangheili settlements with Type-25 Choppers during the Great Schism.|250px]]
The Type-25 Chopper was first deployed by the Covenant during the First Battle of Harvest in 2525. In [[2531]] Jiralhanae would use Choppers against the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} during the [[Battle of Shield World 0459]].
 
Towards the end of the Human-Covenant War in [[2552]] Choppers were used extensively during the [[Battle of Earth]]. [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] [[Taylor Miles|Taylor "Dutch" Miles]], with the help of other [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]], destroyed multiple Choppers at the [[Uplift Nature Reserve]] near [[New Mombasa]]. [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] destroyed many Choppers during the [[Battle of Voi]].
 
The Covenant deployed multiple Choppers during the [[Battle of Installation 00]] first in front of the Ark's Cartographer and later in front of the Citadel.
 
With the end of the war Choppers continued to be used by various Jiralhanae. Choppers were used during [[War Games]] matches aboard [[Anvil Station]].

==Trivia==
{{linkbox|gameplay=yes|gallery=yes}}
*Because of observation of earlier ''Halo 3'' builds, the Type-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle was first misidentified as a "Brute Ghost" (mentioned in the December 2006 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly<ref>[http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=755574 '''Halo.bungie.org''': ''OK I Have all the Info YOU Need...'']</ref>) or the "Mauler". At the time, the vehicle appeared to be similar in color and sound to the Covenant Ghost. However, the wings were folded up and the result was a much thicker, tube-like vehicle, giving some the idea that this was different from the original Ghost. They were proved correct by the unveiling of the Chopper, which in its final iteration bears little resemblance to a Ghost.<ref>[http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3155363 '''1Up''': ''Everything we know about Halo 3's single-player mode!'']<br>''... the familiar whine of a Covenant Ghost howls and [[John-117|Master Chief]] lowers the Gauss cannon. But this Ghost is unlike any Ghost we've seen before. Instead of the two small wings that normally frame a Ghost, this model is more tube-like in design. The sound is unmistakable, just like its bumpy hover. There's a much larger driver at the back of this new Ghost-type vehicle -- a Brute. This is the first vehicle we've seen from what Griesemer describes as the Brute Sandbox. As Master Chief lowers the Gauss cannon on the Ghost, the demo ends.''</ref>
*Commentary found on the [[Legendary Edition]] disk relates how the [[Bungie]] team tried to make the Chopper analogous to a human motorcycle, a vehicle for tough guys, in this case the tough ape-like Jiralhanae.
*Choppers are a good vehicle to destroy for the [[We're in for some Chop]] achievement by destroying it with a [[trip mine]].
*The Chopper, the [[Type-30 Locust]], the Prowler, and the [[Type-47 Scarab]] are the only Covenant vehicles not named after some sort of apparition. Brute vehicles and weapons, however, seem to have their own nomenclature system: being named after predatory or otherwise vicious acts, e.g. ''chopping'', and ''mauling'' and so on.
