|
| ==Overview==
| | The '''Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle''', more commonly identified as the '''Ghost''' by the [[UNSC]], is a standard reconnaissance and rapid attack vehicle in service with various [[Covenant remnants|Covenant remnant factions]].<ref name="fodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-designs-of-the-times '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Designs of the Times'']</ref> |
| === Design details ===
| |
| Free from the sacrifical needs of the [[San'Shyuum]], the ''Karo'wark''-pattern Scout Bike's design focuses more on driver survivability, integrated with the latest [[Boosted gravity propulsion drive|boosted-gravity drive]] components. With an internal [[fuel cell]] and reinforced shielding, the Karo'wark-pattern Ghost offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost]].{{Ref/Reuse|fodder}} The ''Karo'wark''{{'}}s [[design pattern]] is a "compromise" design, employed by several [[Sangheili]] factions during the [[Blooding Years|civil war]] on [[Sanghelios]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
| |
|
| |
|
| | ==Specifications== |
| | ===Design details=== |
| | The Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle features a sleek biomimetic carapace and is integrated with the latest [[Boosted gravity propulsion drive|boosted-gravity drive]] components. This along with other improvements means the Type-54 RAV offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older [[Type-32 Rapid Attack Vehicle]].<ref name="fodder"/> |

| * '''Sword Ghost''': The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted ''Karo'wark''-pattern Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}

Ghost Ultras are exclusively produced by the independent Sangheili colony of [[Whispering Trees]].{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
| | The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted T-54 Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.<ref name="H5G"/> |
| * '''Temple Ghost''': Driven by veteran [[Sangheili Zealot|Zealots]] who have mastered their impetuous natures, the Temple Ghost, a rare treasure worth its weight in lesser warriors, is a Masterwork Ghost with hardened armor, improved handling, and plasma cannons that can be fired while boosting.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
| | ====Ghost Ultra==== |
| * '''Warzone Ghost''': The Warzone Ghost is a variant of the Ghost used by enemy AI in [[War Games]] simulations.

| The ''Karo'wark''-pattern Scout Bike was put into service after the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]], with the Covenant remnants utilizing new manufacturing facilities to produce the model. The ''Karo'wark''-pattern was used in multiple battles, including the [[Battle of Kamchatka]] and various battles in the [[Blooding Years]].{{Ref/Reuse|fodder}} By October [[2558]], [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] had used his contacts and influence to purchase ''Karo'wark''-pattern Ghosts for the Swords of Sanghelios that boasted superior armor compared to the Ghosts used by [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s Covenant.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} A small number of Ultra Ghosts were used by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant during the [[Battle of Genesis]].{{Ref/Level|H5G|Genesis (level)|Genesis}}{{Ref/Level|H5G|Guardians}} Around the same time ''Karo'wark''-pattern Ghosts became popular in [[War Games]] matches aboard the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}

| * The Ghost, like its ''Halo 4'' counterpart, once again has a limited amount of time to boost before it has to recharge. In addition to the base model there are also three variants: the Sword Ghost, Ultra Ghost, and Temple Ghost.
| |
| * Handling and maneuverability have been vastly improved.
| |
| * Plasma cannons' projectile velocity and damage have been increased to compensate for Halo 5's enhanced mobility.
| |
| * The Ghost's side engines are its weakpoints; once exposed, if shot there, it will take damage much faster.
