The cryo bomb can freeze even {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}}s in their tracks and severely weakens their armor, allowing them to be shattered.<ref>[http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41104.html '''Gametrailers''']</ref> Although the cryo bomb may freeze ground units, its best effect is that most air units caught in the blast will freeze and crash into the ground instantly; however, a UNSC [[AC-220 Vulture]] can maintain flight but will stay low to the ground until the effect wears off, unless it has taken sufficient damage prior to the cryo bomb's impact, in which case it will be destroyed.<ref name = "Gamereactor">2008-04-11, [http://www.gamereactor.no/grtv/?id=3396&sid=5bb9748a525446234980eb00694fb89a TGS08: Halo Wars Gameplay Presentation].
