===Description===
===Description===
The Umbra is an arch-shaped ground vehicle that features the same anti-gravity technology most standard Covenant ground vehicles use. At the top of the Umbra's arch is the driver's cockpit and a gunner's seat with a [[plasma cannon]]. Below the driver and gunner seats is the carrier pod. On each side of the Umbra's carrier pod is a square, luminous touchpad that, when pressed, releases the lock and causes the outer wall to lower and extend a ramp leading into the vehicle.{{Ref/Reuse|HO13}} The ramp on each side of the vehicle leads to ten troop stations for a total of twenty troop stations per carrier pod.{{Ref/Novel|Id=H016|Oblv|Chapter=16}}
