| Is there anyone who can explain why the in game pelican does not have a 70mm chin gun? In game the chin gun appears to be the same weapon, if not smaller caliber than the Warthog's chain gun. But it obviously is not a 70mm cannon - [[User:Blehm98|Blehm98]] 21 October 2006 | | Is there anyone who can explain why the in game pelican does not have a 70mm chin gun?

| Well, in [[Halo: First Strike]], the Longswords chin-gun deploys from under the Longsword (because they have to reaise the gears to allow it to deploy). Perhaps the Pelican's is similar.--'''[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]]''' 18:22, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | | Well, in [[Halo: First Strike]], the Longswords chin-gun deploys from under the Longsword (because they have to reaise the gears to allow it to deploy).

| *I went back and studied Halo 2. Look at any pelican with a weapon (Outskirts, Metropolis, Delta Halo or Regret are ideal) and examine the chaingun under its nose. Now go to the AIE-468H Heavy Machinegun that we used in the Beta. Look familiar?

| Does anybody else think that a 70mm gun is way to big to be the gun mounted under the pelican? The one on the pelican is about the same size as the chaingun on a warthog but only 1 barrel. Think about it in world war 2 the U.S. had a 70mm gun but it was mounted on a '''TANK''' and was used as an '''Anti-tank''' gun. I dont think that such a large gun would be used against infantry. just my opinion. [[User:EliteSpartan|EliteSpartan]] 6:46 August 9 2007

| *Ahem. I give you the Lockheed AC-130 Gunship, mounting a 105 Mike-Mike howitzer, a 40mm BOFORS cannon, and two 20mm cannons (Which can be replaced by a 25mm gatling gun.) A 70mm automatic used as an anti-vehicle weapon is NOT out of the range of possibility. Load it with beehive rounds, and you can say GOODBYE to infantry.--[[User talk:Quirel|Quirel]] 05:36, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| | |
| Turn to Official Xbox Magazine's August 2007 issue on page 88. Under the rumor mole section, it states "...Been waiting to fly Halo's Pelican dropship since the original game? You'll finally get to on Spetember 25th." I think this would work in Multiplayer and Single Player, if [[Shrine]] is as big as they say it is.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Sorry, the september issue (the one with the halo 3 feature) confirms that pelicans will NOT be flyable.
| |
| | |

| I hope there's a sequence where Chief gets to use the chaingun in the back of the pelican.

| ==Pelican Speed==
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| I’m just wondering where the retarded speed listed for the Pelican came from, I find it ''exceedingly'' stupid that I can apparently outrun a ''spaceship'' in my ''CAR'' is there any sane evidecne to support this crap?
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| on a short track you would be able to out run the space shuttle too. Might be that the pelican is built for power not speed how heavy an airframe do you think is required to lift a 66 ton tank into orbit with vertical take off and landing capabilities?
| |
| | |
| | |
| ::The first bit is a red herring nevermind idiotic of CORUSE my car is “faster” over some minute distance, but that’s because my care doesn’t weigh 4 millions pounds. This is about TOP speed and the rest of your own message helps highlights why the given number is retarded.
| |
| | |
| I discount any non-senses about it being super heavy myself many vehicles can carry more then their own weight in cargo. Never mind that huge portions of the interior are just full of air, and the fact that Banshee guns and such which don’t appear anymore lethal then a machine gun seem totally able to damage and destroy it which shows it’s probably not armored to any serious degree. I see no reason it should weigh more then a comparable helicopter at 15 to 20 tons.
| |
| | |
| Now lifting a tank weighing 66 tons vertically with just raw thrust would take… 66 tons of thrust, plus the weight of the Pelican.Given its size let’s just say that’s 14 tons (not at all out of place for a large’ish helicopter so a good fit) so we get a nice round 80 tons of thrusts. Hauling a load THAT heavy the low number might be almost reasonable, problem is most of the time it isn’t hauling 60+ tons of dead weight on the back.
| |
| | |
| At those times it’s thrust to weight ratio sores and is probably over 4 to 1, most modern fighter jets can’t even break 1.25 to 1!!! It should be able to climb like a rocket ship… wait it CAN based on ALL the novels. Even if we postulate some super heavy airframe the fact is that the engine, no matter HOW you cut it, have an excesses lifting capacity/thrust of around 66 (probably somewhat more) tons, that’s ALLOT of thrust.
| |
| | |
| 66 tons of thrust IE JUST the excesses from when it’s not carrying a tank (and again it’s probably more since you want a margin of safety) could easily lift a fully loaded 737 straight up… As in if you stuck these engines under the belly they’d lift it skyward like a rocket, at least until it flipped over and crashed anyway. The 737 own engines, putting out a pidly 20 tons of thrust combined, by comparison can easily push that 54 ton aircraft up to 600+ miles per hour in level flight. True it has a large wing to help, but it also probably like a forth the thrust, nearly 4 times the weight of an empty pelican by my reckoning, and a much larger (if perhaps marginally more streamlined) surface area.
| |
| Anyone that thinks that much power couldn’t move something that sized faster then a car on the highway is a moron. I won’t even get into the fact we see Pelican’s covering huge areas of Halo in a reasonable period of time. If it really could only go 45 miles per hour it would take DAYS to traverse any serious distance across or around Halo. In fact at 45 miles per hour with decent roads modern TANKS could DRIVE their faster.
| |
| | |
| That number is killing my braincells it’s gone unless someone can come along and give me a logical reason it could possibly be true.

| | |
| In the book Halo: The Flood a captured Pelican flown by Elites was doing 300KPH while aproching Alpha Base in atmosphere carrying thirty Elites
| |
| | |
| Conceivably any low ball figure for its speed could be a combat speed. In some military air forces minimum and maximum air speeds and altitudes are mandated and only excedable in times of emergency (ie dogfighting). Also, the figure could be ground speed and not air speed. ps is the spell check terrible on this site?
| |
| | |
| :I know this discussion is old, but I'd just like to add that for the Pelican to lift the 66 ton Scorpion, it would have to apply a thrust equal to 66 tons + it's own weight, times a minimum of 9.80665 meters/sec. That way it hovers. The tank alone would mean ~647,000 newtons of thrust. [[User:P03 James|P03 James]] 19:49, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

| Okay, with all due respect to the author's of this page, where did the stats on the pelican come from (things like the consumables, mass, lifting capacity, drives, etc)?

| I know this is a couple years old by now, but the Pelicans in the picture could also be 06, 05, and so on and so forth. With the font of the identification numbers, I think it is hard to tell between a 0, and an 'O'. I believe, however, that they ID numbers are simply 06 and so on, because of the corresponding IDs on the floor. Perhaps the factory putting these dropships together labels them that way so they know where parts are supposed to go, which i think would not be too unbelievable, as the Pelicans would most likely recieve their final ID number after rolling off the factory floor and heading out to move to their designated unit/attendant starship.[[User talk:SpartaWolf|SpartaWolf]] 06:12, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| | |
| 35 feet does seem a bit high, though with landing gear extended it's actually a bit above that, but I think that it does fit the overall size of the Pelican. You have to remember that, when landed, the back end of the ship sticks high up into the air. When measured like that, the highest point of the fuselage is sticking up around twice the height of the cockpit. With a modern comparison, the V-22 Osprey comes in at about half the Pelican's height with its tail fins, but its fuselage is relatively on the same horizontal level as the cockpit. It's still hard to believe, but that's because of the general lack of any real perspective shots between a normal human standing next to a landed pelican in any of the games.

| == Lifting Body ==
| |
| | |
| The wings on the Pelican look extremely small for the weight they have to provide lift for, and using the thrusters would get costly. So is it possible that the actual hull of the Pelican provides most of the lift? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_body Lifting Bodies] arent new - the general shape and layout [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:X24.jpg look ''very'' similar]. The wings would just be for directional and altitudal control, with the thrusters as backup. The Space Shuttle has wings, even though it's a lifting body. Does this deserve inclusion?

| |
| *Flight isn't necessarily linked to lift if you put big enough engines on a brick it could break the sound barrier in level flight... control would be a bit of an issue though. Really any time you see a modern fighter stand on its tail and accelerate straight up you’re seeing the triumph of thrust over gravity same with a rocket. The Pelican is likely relying largely on this principle the simple fact it can ''hover'' with a full load is fair evidecne of this. Hovering is purely a question of thrust as no air is moving over any lifitng surfaces. (which is why it's so damn hard) the Pelican can do this which means it has enough thrust to basiclly hold itself up under earth gravity without any lift.
| |
| | |
| If it can do that it ought to be able attain level flight easily IMO and the vestigial wings and limited aerodynamic shaping we are probably largely an attitude control measure that works in combination with the vectored engine pods. The fuselage doesn’t strike me as very lifting body like less so on the HCI which is more angular lifting bodies are all very smooth, flattened, and quite wide with large undersides the Pelican doesn’t really resemble them IMO with it’s fairly narrow body, high set wings, and tapering stern plus the stuff sticking out of hanging off the bottom (guns, missile pods, 60 ton tanks...)would ruin the carefully directed airflow needed to make this sort of thing work.[[User:TK3997|TK3997]] 12:16, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :IMO (mildly educated as I'm in aerospace engineering), I don't think the Pelican actually flies traditionally. I think it's more of a rocket that hovers. Because the thrust required to support the craft to hover would greatly exceed the necessary thrust to keep it moving forward. I'd say the wings are more of an altitude control method for a few more seconds if the craft gets heavily damaged. So I'd def be supporting that it's not an aircraft (esp because it functions in outer atmosphere), and more of a rocket propelled troop transport.

| ==Lift and Thrust Theories==
| |
| | |
| With short, stubby wings, the Pelican cannot remain airborne at all. It couldn't even fly. So the lift needed for airworthiness must come from an additional source, supplementing the lift generated from the wings. This could either be antigravity (unlikely, as the USMC didn't do much with that), or generated directly from the fuselage. This is known as the lifting body principle, and was tested during the Space Race and afterwards as a search for a reusable space vehicle (now known as the Space Shuttle, thanks to all the testing). Lifting bodies are exactly what they sound like: an aerodynamically engineered fuselage that is capable of generating its own lift, supplementing its wings. The Pelican likely operates in the same fashion, albeit with greater efficiency thanks to its advanced engines. This would explain how Pelicans can remain aloft instead of dropping out of the sky (or not taking off in the first place).
| |
| | |
| As for thrust directing, we all know that the Pelican uses two nacelles mounted at the wing roots that rotate, and two rear-mounted nacelles that operate in a similar fashion. By moving these four nacelles in different combinations and to different angles, the Pelican gains enhanced maneuvering, eliminating the need for control surfaces seen on modern day aircraft (ailerons, elevators, rudders). The Pelican does appear to have some control surfaces mounted on the trailing wing edges, but these are either flaps or smaller ailerons that aid in turning. The Pelican has horizontal exhausts that create horizontal thrust, and downward facing exhausts that allow it to hover and take off vertically. The V-22 Osprey uses similar methods to maneuver. It has two nacelles with internally mounted turboprops. By directing the nacelles upwards, the Osprey can take off as a helicopter; by directing them forward, the Osprey can fly like an airplane. The nacelles can also be rotated different directions to maneuver differently. The similarity here is that the Osprey and Pelican both use thrust directing to control how they maneuver, albeit the Pelican relies heavily on it and uses four nacelles as opposed to the Osprey which primarily relies on control surfaces to maneuver and only has two nacelles.

| :An aircraft can remain airborne even with short and stubby wings provided they have a good propulsion system which is capable of VTOL. A popular example of a VTOL aircraft would be the Harrier Jet Fighter and a popular example of an aircraft with a short, stubby wings is the [[wikipedia:F-104 Starfighter|ol' F-104 Starfighter]]. Also, have you ever consider the amount of power and force the propulsion engine the Pelican can produce? It is capable of escaping planetary gravity, manage to carry a Scorpion Tank with ease, and maneouvre around hostile areas while carrying a vehicle like a jet fighter. Using these examples, I would say that the propulsion system used by the Pelican can ensure that it could stay airborne. The real question is for how long and how does the craft maintain such reserve power to fuel the propulsion system. Instead, think of how it stays airborne like this: <code>Harrier's unique Propulsion System + Chinook body design/fuselage? + F-104 Starfighter's Stubby and Short Wings = Pelican</code>. That being said, the propulsion system used by the Pelican can keep it airborne and rendering the Lift Body theory useless.
| |
| | |
| :Regarding the Osprey, yes... it uses a similar method to maneouvre but not like a Pelican (Tiltrotor are heavily influenced by the weather (like all helicopters) whereas the Pelican's propulsion does not (like the Harrier)), thus holding little relevance to this claim. The closest resemblance you can compare for thrust directing for the Pelican is the Harrier's propulsion system which also relies on the direction of its thrust nozzle (Point down, you go up. Point behind, you go front. One point behind with larger force while the other one points down with smaller force, you spin around like in a merry-go-round.).- <font face="Century Gothic">[[User:Subtank|<font color="gold"><font color="#FF4F00">5</font>əb<font color="#FF4F00">'7</font>aŋk</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Subtank|<font color="#FF4F00">7alk</font>]])</sup></font> 17:49, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

| ::Well put. I see your reasoning there. I have considered that a significant degree of airworthiness is generated from the Pelican's mighty engines. Such a thing exists in modern day times on the F-15 Eagle, which has a thrust to weight ratio greater than 1, allowing it to gain altitude even when in a full 90 degree climb. But sometimes a great thrust output is not what will make an aircraft fly. Current flight theories require some form of wings; varying the wing's cross-section and airfoil shape varies how much lift can be produced. The F-104's J-79 powerplant rates as the second most powerful energy producer known to man, second only to a nuclear reactor, yet even its great thrust performance would not be enough to get it in the air. The F-104 still needed wings, and if you think about it, the F-104 does not always fly at high speeds, negating the theory that an aircraft with little airfoil cross-sectioning (Pelican) can remain aloft by means of a powerful engine. Even the Pelican does not always travel at max speed. It hovers and takes off, and requires some degree of lift to get in the air. However, since we do not actually know the exact output of the Pelican's engines, I theorized that some of the lift may be produced from the fuselage, since the combination of the Pelican's weight, size of wings, and other factors does not seem to support the theory that it remains airborne with a heavy reliance on its engines. Yes, it would assist in keeping it up, but that still leaves the problem of how the Pelican flies while it is accelerating to max speed.
| |
| | |
| ::The tilt-rotor theory here...I forgot about the Harrier, and that definitely seems to be a better fit than the Osprey. I brought the Osprey up, however, because its engines are directly installed in the nacelles, just like the Pelican, and by varying the direction of the nacelles it can maneuver. The Pelican obviously relies heavily on this principle, more so than the Osprey, so I would say the connection still stands. The Harrier uses its nozzles to take off vertically and uses them somewhat to maneuver, but also relies on control surfaces as its primary means of maneuvering. Additionally, its engine is mounted internally as is the case on most other aircraft. The Harrier also generates its lift from its wings just like a regular aircraft. Yes, it initially uses its powerplant to get up to speed, but once it gets up to a certain speed, the wings generate enough lift to support it, and it no longer needs to rely solely on its powerplant to keep it up. I definitely agree that in the final theory/explanation, it should mention the Harrier's method of maneuvering.

| :::The problem with your statement above is ''Current flight theories''. The Pelican was developed in the future, thus scientists in that timeline might have solved the problem with short, stubby wings and powerful propulsion systems. Our current knowledge of the world is constantly changing and expanding as we progress through time, thus we can say it is possible for the Pelican to achieve such feat with such propulsion system in the future. All we can do for now is speculate with concrete support/evidence... I would suggest getting someone with a degree in aerodynamics to explain it for us and show whether it's feasible. As for now, just hold off with the speculations. We've came into some trouble in the past with these speculations in articles and it resulted badly. So, please hold off these speculations.

| ::::Seems reasonable. I would like to point out that by suggesting the theories above, I was attempting to explain how a Pelican would fly in today's world. It is possible that the 26th century scientists have found a way to promote airworthiness by means of gradually diminishing airfoil sizes and increases in powerplant efficiency. However, based on the advances seen in other systems, i.e. humans in the 26th century still drive on wheels, I am led to believe that not much has changed in terms of aerodynamics so much as powerplant technology. Look at the Longsword. It is heavily based of the B-2 Spirit and its flying wing design. It seems the only advancements in the aeronautical industry have been made in the powerplant, intelligence, defense, and weapons support fields. Additionally, the shape of the Pelican's body leads me to believe that it generates ''some'' lift from its body. I don't necessarily consider myself to be speculating; I consider it theorizing, but that's just me. If you really want a knowledgeable source, I could attempt to locate one. Part of this knowledge comes from time with my grandfather, who has a degree in aerospace engineering. I can contact him and get an 'official' theory if you feel this is necessary.

I'd just like to know. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 06:48, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

| :Neutral is generally more for stating why they remain out of the vote. Comments is more to ask questions about the position itself. As for me, I don't know enough on the subject in question to say so myself.

| ==Halo: Reach==

| If the Halo: Reach pelican is supposed to be the older version, why in the ending cutscene of "The Package" and in the opening of "The Pillar of Autumn" levels, the cockpit is the same as the Halo 3 pelican?[[User talk:Joaovader|Joaovader]] 03:34, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

| :It is called retcon. Wait, do we have confirmation the Pelican in Reach is actually D77-TC and not D77H-TC/I (the Halo 3 variant)? Because it looks awful lot like Halo 3's Pelican. Of course the Reach Pelican could be a variant of Halo 3's Pelican or a prototype of it or a variant of the Halo CE/2 Pelican. Though retcon is the simplest solution, even if it's not much more than graphic overhaul. [[User talk:T51b|T51b]] 11:27, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

| ::Actually, it could be a D77H-TC/I. It's not like they would magically start appearing between ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3''. Logically, they would have begun entering service at least a few months prior to the Battle of Earth. Besides, we don't know when the D77H-TC/I entered service; people just assume it was introduced between ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' because it hasn't appeared in pre-''Halo 3'' material. For example, when ''Halo 3'' came out, people thought the Mongoose, the SPARTAN Laser, and the Hornet were all recently developed; they were, of course, wrong on all three counts. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 14:56, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

| == Pelican flyable in Halo: Reach ==
| |
| | |
| Bungie's Oct. 30th Weekly Update says that the Pelican is able to be flown. They say that this is done through hidden devices or something like that.

| == Halo 2 Anniversary Pelicans mistake ==
| |
| | |
| In the pre-rendered cutscenes the cockpit have the pilot and copilot side by side, however in gameplay the cockpits have the pilot in front and the copilot behind as has been since H3 pelicans. This is most noticable with crashed pelican on the beach [[User:VARGR|VARGR]] ([[User talk:VARGR|talk]]) 14:23, 11 December 2014 (EST)

| | |
| :I wouldn't call it a mistake. The cutscene models are much higher quality models than the ones used in the game. These are now pre-rendered custscenes and don't use in-game assets. The Warthogs are also better resolution models (note how the towhook bobs around when its driving) as are the characters. Look at Sgt. Johnson in the cutscene versus the game. The cutscene Pelicans are physically different model files from the ones we encounter during gameplay. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 19:09, 11 December 2014 (EST)
