The '''Covenant Air Artillery''' was an early airborne [[Covenant]] weapons platform armed with three [[Plasma Mortar]]s (also the main armament of the [[Type-25 Wraith|Wraith]]). As it had no on board defenses, it could have been very vulnerable if dealt with promptly. However, its heavy plasma mortar cannons could lay waste to an entire UNSC base.<ref>http://halowars.com/Features.aspx</ref> This unit was cut<ref>http://www.halowars.com/news/articles/archive/2008/02/14/Halo-Wars-Monthly-Update-02.14.08.aspx</ref> from the final game. | |||
It may have been replaced in the game by the new [[Vampire]] because ''[[Ensemble Studios]]'' thought that The Covenant already had too many ground units. It was also the first unit to be deleted from [[Halo Wars]]. | |||
