== Confirmation of Type-28 ==
Is there actual confirmation that the Type-28 actually exist? From the Type-25's Trivia section, "the Spirit dropship was erroneously designated as the "Type-28 Troop Carrier" during the development of Halo: Reach; this was soon corrected following the release of the game. This error, however, persists in the 2011 edition of the Halo Encyclopedia.[5]" Even the [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/spirit latest source on the Spirit] seems to indicate that the Type-28 is nothing more than a typo. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  11:50, 23 January 2018 (EST)

:The 2011 and 2010 version of the Encyclopedia shows the Halo Wars 1 variant. Not the Halo Reach/CEA variant. ;) Both the Type-25 and Type-28 have distinct designs and no source says they are both Type-25 Spirits. The Type-28 is also seen with a Gravity lift into the cockpit of the Spirit(Halo Wars 1) Something that isnt seen in use at all in the T-25 model.(if the Type-25 does have it, we just never seen it used)
:Plus even if the Encyclopedia used the error to get the Type-28 classification(nothing to say it did or didnt mind you). Its the only source giving a name for this specific Spirit at all, which would of needed a page regardless, its a case of we use the only source we have and change it if needed, wont be the first time we used a term from the Encyclopedia, that 343i may later change. (Installation 04B was a term born from the Encyclopedia)--[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 16:00, 23 January 2018 (EST)
::I agree that it was most certainly an error. ''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide'' also specifies that it was the Type-25 in ''Halo Wars''. Halo Waypoint also makes no mention of the Type-28, but mentions the T-25 and T-57. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 22:27, 23 January 2018 (EST)
:::The Visual guide for items that do have numerous variants sometimes just uses the name of the item spotlighted.*Edit I made a oopsie in my example lol*
:::And the Visual guide spotlights the Type-25 variant. Never showing the Halo Wars variant in it.
:::Aka my main arguement is, in both sources you two are showing the Halo Wars variant is never shown at all. So it does leave it open for us.-[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 06:45, 24 January 2018 (EST)
::::Regardless I asked Grim about it [https://twitter.com/cia391/status/955910640035606529 here] so here is hoping after he confers we get out answer in one way or another. :) -[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 06:52, 24 January 2018 (EST)
