Were you looking for the Type-52 Phantom seen in Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach?

The Type-44 Troop Carrier, commonly known as the Phantom, is a Covenant dropship manufactured by Achoem Weapons.^[1]

Overview

The Type-44 Phantom's prominence was due to its speed, maneuverability, and firepower in atmospheric and exoatmospheric environments.^[1] It was later supplanted by a newer model, the 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.

Trivia

The Type-44 shares the same properties as the Type-52 from Halo: Reach, capable of withstanding up to five Scorpion shots before exploding.
During the level Composer, in the hangar, if the player activates the barrier while a Phantom is still inside the station, the vehicle will explode once it comes in contact with the barrier.
