See title, if a condor is too small/not powerful enough to move a mammoth what does transport them? [[Special:Contributions/24.27.74.27|24.27.74.27]] 14:27, December 27, 2023 (EST)

:There are no official statements that can prove or disprove the Condor's ability to transport a Mammoth. However, the UNSC has plenty of heavy lift dropships with which to accomplish the task; the [[D82-EST Darter]], [[D96-TCE Albatross]], and a myriad of Pelican variants alongside the Condor. It is worth considering that in the ''Halo Wars'' level [[Reactor (Halo Wars level)|Reactor]], we see multiple Pelicans being used to airlift ''Spirit of Fire''{{'}}s slipspace drive.[[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 15:19, December 28, 2023 (EST)
::Thanks for the prompt answer! I guess that since the Albatross and Darter are both only half the length of a Mammoth that the only way to transport one would be by multi-aircraft tandem lift... seems like a tactically dubious option though.[[Special:Contributions/24.27.74.27|24.27.74.27]] 21:43, December 28, 2023 (EST)
:::Actually looking harder I've realized a [[Heron]] should be able to do it just fine. Thank you for also prompting a little more vigilant research on my part! :) [[Special:Contributions/24.27.74.27|24.27.74.27]] 21:50, December 28, 2023 (EST)
::::It's tactically dubious, but a Mammoth is a strategic asset. It's of a sufficient scale that it'd be deployed far from hostile fire, and then used to make its way to a given objective over land. If it has to be deployed into an environment while taking hostile fire, something has gone very wrong indeed. The Mammoth's role is one of siegeworks, acting as a mobile operating base, and acting as a platform to mount ultra-heavy artillery pieces with which to keep the skies clear from light warships; it's not the kind of asset you'd be seeing deployed in the same manner as a Warthog. Deploy it a few miles inside friendly (or at least non-hostile) lines, and let it proceed under its own power to the target.[[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 21:51, December 28, 2023 (EST)
