| The '''siege bike''' is an experimental all-terrain, single-traction tread vehicle designed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Reverse Engineering and Prototyping–Xenotechnology department|REAP-X department]] to target well-fortified enemy strongholds and barricades.{{Ref/Reuse|Mega}}{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22P139|Enc22|Page=139}} | | The '''UNSC Siege Bike''' is a heavy-grade, all-terrain single traction tread vehicle designed to target well-fortified enemy strongholds and barricades with its spectrum-enhanced visual tracking functionality. |

| ==Overview==
| |
| ===Design details===
| |
| The siege bike is equipped with a single side-mounted [[M268 heavy machine gun]] equipped with spectrum-enhanced visual tracking functionality. The vehicle is built around a heavy-grade, single-traction tread that allows the bike to be useable in all terrains and achieve speeds of up to {{Convert|145|km/h|mph}},{{Ref/Reuse|Mega}} and it is known to be highly maneuverable.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P139}} The bike is only capable of carrying one operator, who rides atop the vehicle.{{Ref/Reuse|Mega}}
| |
| | |
| ===Development===
| |
| The siege bike is one of several experimental vehicles developed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Reverse Engineering and Prototyping–Xenotechnology department]],{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P139}} a subdivision of the agency that focuses on the research, analysis, and reapplication of alien technology.{{Ref/Site|Id=Special Report|URL=http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=8efbd7b88156ac5f6faed8b69&id=4fdccf0da5&e=7be5970a3b|Site=Mega Bloks|Page=Special Report: ONI REAP-X|D=14|M=10|Y=2014}} The vehicle's impressive weight-responsive maneuverability is a product of reverse-engineered gravitic modules discovered in a [[Covenant]] ship debris field.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P139}}
| |
| | |
| ===Usage===
| |
| Still in the experimental phase of production, the siege bike is explicitly designed to soften enemy fortifications and create breaches that can then be exploited by other groundside forces.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P139}}
