*It seems that [[Bungie]] originally considered making the AA Wraith a drivable vehicle, since when the player takes control of it with a glitch and then jump out of the Wraith, an animation of the cannons folding together and going down through the hatch can be seen, much like the normal Wraith. The fact that the AA Wraith is drivable at all proves this fact, but it was likely made unusable due to it being significantly overpowered. It also contains its own special aiming reticule which is seen nowhere else, and seems to be a reticule designed specifically for the AA-Wraith. Similarly, there is no targeting reticule for the AA Wraith's gunner turret.

*The Anti Air Wraith controlled by the player is not as effective at destroying aircraft as one that is operated by an AI, because the AI is more efficient at targeting and leading; as such, it will know where the aircraft (sometimes even if controlled by the player, although the AI will most likely not hit the player) will move based on current readings (sudden course changes notwithstanding).
