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 '''Siege Bike''' is an all-terrain, single-traction tread vehicle designed to target well-fortified enemy strongholds and barricades.<ref group="note">In a Q&A edition of the [[Halo Bulletin]], [[Frank O'Connor]] [http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/03/28/The-Halo-Bulletin-32813.aspx confirmed] that REAP-X itself is canonical and that the vehicles were created in collaboration with [[343 Industries]]; however, MEGA Brands were given considerable latitude in the vehicles' designs. O'Connor hinted that the vehicles also canonically exist, though not with the exaggerated aesthetic of the toys.</ref> One of several experimental vehicles developed by [[ONI]]'s [[Reverse Engineering and Prototyping–Xenotechnology department|REAP-X department]], it is equipped with a side-mounted [[M268 heavy machine gun]] with 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}}
