The Type-44 Phantom's prominence was due to its speed, maneuverability, and firepower in atmospheric and exoatmospheric environments.<ref name="Guide"/> It was later supplanted by a newer model, the [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Type-52]], which was ubiquitous later in the [[Human-Covenant War]]. The [[Covenant remnant]] use the Type-44 as their primary dropship, likely due to the scarcity of the newer model. | The Type-44 Phantom's prominence was due to its speed, maneuverability, and firepower in atmospheric and exoatmospheric environments.<ref name="Guide"/> It was later supplanted by a newer model, the [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Type-52]], which was ubiquitous later in the [[Human-Covenant War]].

In terms of outward appearance and armament, the Type-44 Phantom is nearly identical to the Phantoms featured in ''Halo: Reach''. However, the Phantoms in ''Reach'' are designated as Type-52, the model encountered in the original trilogy; given that the Type-52 Phantoms ''in Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' differs in both visual appearance and weaponry from the Type-52 Phantoms in ''Reach'', it is possible that the Phantoms in both ''Halo 4'' and ''Reach'' are meant to be Type-44 Phantoms. | |||
