| | '''Victor 398''' was a [[UNSC]] [[D77H-TCI Pelican Dropship|Pelican]] dropship that crashed into the mountain gorge that is the [[Halo 3]] [[multiplayer]] level, [[Valhalla]].<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/content.aspx?link=h3betaValhalla Bungie.net]</ref> The crash, which the crew barely survived, also scattered the [[Pelican|Pelican's]] contents throughout the valley. V-398's rear hatch is sealed, presumably by the surviving crew members, which denies access to the bird's interior. It was most likely on an ammunition run, due to the several [[Resupply Canister Type-C Capsule|Type C Resupply Capsules]] scattered throughout the area. It is unknown how the Pelican went down, though it is a possibility that the forerunner cannons atop the "bases" in [[Valhalla]] may have accidentally hit the Pelican, but this is unlikely, because for the Pelican to come to rest in it's current position it would have had to come down on a path that does not pass over them. Due to Valhalla's location on the [[Installation 00|Ark]], it is more likely that V-398 was shot down during the [[Second Battle of Installation 00|Battle of the Ark]]. |

| '''''Victor 398''''' was a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] dropship that crashed into a [[Valhalla|mountain gorge]] on [[Installation 00]] during [[Battle of Installation 00|combat]] in [[2552#December|December 2552]]. The crash, which the crew barely survived, scattered the Pelican's cargo throughout the valley. ''V-398''{{'}}s rear hatch was sealed by the surviving crew members. The Pelican was most likely on an ammunition run, due to the several [[Resupply canister|Type-C resupply capsules]] scattered throughout the area.{{Ref/Map|H3|Valhalla|Detail=Map description|Quote=The crew of V-398 barely survived their unplanned landing in this gorge...this curious gorge.}}

| In [[2558|February 2558]], ''Victor 398''{{'}}s crash would be mirrored by that of [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] [[Mountain Squad]]'s Pelican. This crash took place in a [[Two Giants|nearly identical canyon]] on the shield world [[Requiem]].{{Ref/SpOps|Catherine|Spartan Mountain}}

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| ''Victor 398''{{'}}s crash position is the same as that of ''[[Victor 933]]'', most likely as a deliberate reference to ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.
| | *Victor 398's crash position is the same as [[Victor 933]] (possibly the same model, but with high quality graphics), and may be a nod to the [[Halo: Combat Evolved|earlier game]]. |
| | | *In the popular machinima series [[Red vs. Blue]], this is the ship [[List_of_characters_in_Red_vs._Blue#Freelancer_Agent_Texas_.28A.K.A._Tex.29|Tex]], crash lands in. |
