The '''cargo tug''' is a light transport craft of [[Covenant]] design. Virtually identical in outward appearance to the [[Type-29 Shadow]], it is nonetheless a distinct vehicle, most conspicuously distinguished by its flight capability. It has a small cargo capacity and has been described as "about as dangerous as a toothpick".<ref name="esc">'''Halo: Escalation''' — ''Issue #3''</ref>

A cargo tug left in the Covenant industrial facilities on [[Ealen IV]] was used to transport the [[human]], [[Sangheili]] and [[Jiralhanae]] delegation to {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} in orbit during [[Shipmaster]] [[Vata 'Gajat]]'s [[Battle of Ealen IV|attack to thwart the negotiations]] in early [[2558]].<ref name="esc"/>

-Virtually identical in outward appearance to the {{Pattern|Ruwaa|Shadow}}, it is nonetheless a distinct vehicle, most conspicuously distinguished by its flight capability and featuring enclosed cockpits across the vehicle, unlike the standard Shadow.{{Ref/Reuse|esc}} It has a small cargo capacity and has been described as "about as dangerous as a toothpick".{{Ref/Comic|Id=esc|HE|Issue=[[Halo: Escalation Issue 3|#3]]}} It seemingly appears to share the same size as the Shadow, and as well as equipped with at least one [[heavy plasma cannon]] at its summit.{{Ref/Reuse|esc}} As such, the cargo tug may be likely considered an aircraft configuration and variant for the Type-29 Shadow.
