The M318 Heavy Recovery Vehicle, commonly referred to as the Elephant, is a UNSC Mobile Assault, Support, and Recovery Platform.[1] The vehicle is used primarily as an armored mobile recovery vehicle and has seen action most noticeably in the Human-Covenant War.

Overview[edit]

Designed and manufactured by JOTUN Heavy Industries, the Elephants were initially used in the utility and farming industries during the early colonial expansion periods.[1] After several decades serving in the civilian market, JOTUN was contracted by the UNSC to develop the Elephants and build them as armored repair and recovery vehicles.[1] As time has progressed, the Elephant has been modified into several variants and upgrades, though the Elephant's versatility remain unchanged.
