Why was the main image cut down to only show the turret and not the entire Spartan? The Missile Pod article shows the whole character, this one does not. [[User:Vethryn|Vethryn]] 05:46, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Anyone else think this might be the reincarnation of the WPAS Minigun from the E3 1999 Halo build? (See lower half of [http://web.archive.org/web/20041227153214/http://nikon.bungie.org/pressscans/pcxl.0500/pcxl.0500.p3.jpg this].) [[User:Andrew Nagy|Andrew Nagy]] 04:13, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

*Definitely. Bungie have been itching to put it in a game, and thank god they did! I have got killing sprees with this thing, and i'm not ''that'' good  aplayer, but it feels like so much fun shredding enemies! Cheers Bungie! I salute you!

I had to remove the bit in the article about the AIE-486H replacing the Warthog's LAAG. Despite the similarity of both weapons, Frankie's [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BAGwarthog article on the Warthog] states that it still uses the M41 LAAG.

Ya man the turrets can take down a phantom, every weapons can the only thing that you need is ammo and time.

There has been multiple footages showing ODSTs wielding the turret in the campaign. This ofcourse is conflicting stuff as ODSTs are not as strong as Spartans. Beats me why Bungie decided to ignore such a part of the Halo Universe canon.

:Who says the ODSTs ripped the turrets off? Carrying a turret may require less strength than violently and rapidly tearing it off of its base. Furthermore, the ODSTs are in a city that was blown apart by a massive shock wave during a big Covie-Human battle, so I'm willing to bet that a few turrets got ripped off the base by the shock wave. The ODSTs could also use explosives or something to break the turrets -- works in ''Halo 3''. <span style="background:#AADDAA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b>File:DavidJCobb_Emblem.svg|16px]] [[User:DavidJCobb|<span style="color:#000;position:relative;top:.15em">DavidJCobb&nbsp;</span>]]</b></span> 04:08, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Where does it say, anywhere, in the canon that the HMG fires SLAP rounds? Was this just made up by someone then established as 'fact'? I have never seen any sourcing from it and have removed it in the past but it keeps coming back. Any pointers would be great. [[User talk:Diaboy|Diaboy]] 14:46, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

::To contribute somewhat belatedly, a Wikipedia search the other night told me that a 7.62mm SLAP round consists of your average 7.62mm bullet held inside a sabot, allowing it to fit in a .50 calibre barrel. This would suggest to me that the AIE-486H is a .50 cal HMG that in addition to saboted 7.62mm rounds for armour penetration, it can also fire full-sized .50 cal ammo.--[[User talk:The All-knowing Sith&#39;ari|The All-knowing Sith&#39;ari]] 17:51, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
:::I'd also like to point out that we've never really had an 'official' say at what round it fires. The 7.62mm came from the boxes, which were incorrectly labelled (as mentioned above!) but in the in-game dialogue, it is ''always'' referred to as a 'fifty-cal' or 'fifty' in both the Halo 3 campaign and in Halo 3: ODST. It would make sense for it to be .50 in terms of its heavy machine-gun status and the amount of damage it does, but apparently in-game dialogue isn't good enough for this wiki. For some reason. Because lets be honest, there is more evidence saying it fires .50 rounds rather than 7.62mm SLAP rounds. (grump over) [[User talk:Diaboy|Diaboy]] 01:16, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

== Range ==


Is there any other information on this weapons effective range (Bungie updates, ect.)? The [[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]] lists it's effective range at 100 meters yet the far less effective [[M247 General Purpose Machine Gun]] from Halo 2 is stated in the Encyclopedia to have a range of 1,100 meters. I don't want to add the range of 100 meters, because it seems to be a mistake. --[[user:Sgt.T.N.Biscuits|Bl]][[user_talk:Sgt.T.N.Biscuits|a]][[Special:Contributions/Sgt.T.N.Biscuits|h]] 19:03, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
