- "This is UNSC Pelican Echo 216. Can you hear me?"
- — Echo 216's pilot tries to hail a friendly signal.[2]
Echo 216 is a Pelican dropship of the United Nations Space Command Armed Forces.[2] At some point following the advent of late 2560[3] it and its pilot, after having been stranded around the remains of a shattered Halo installation for some time, had a chance encounter with John-117 and brought the Spartan-II aboard. Echo 216 was hit with some kind of electronic attack soon thereafter, which led its pilot to evacuate the rear bay so the Master Chief could go on the offensive.[2]
Operational history
- "Warning. Warning. Warning. Pressure building in lines four, seventeen, and thirty-three."
- — An automated alert greets Echo 216's pilot as soon as he is jolted awake.[2]
At some point around May 2560,[3] Echo 216 was present near a damaged unidentified Halo ring, where it had been stranded along with its pilot for some time. Eventually, the ship drifted into a collision with John-117, and the pilot was able to use the ship's internal power source to bring the SPARTAN's MJOLNIR (GEN3) armor system online. The armor's fusion reactor in turn restored functionality to the dropship's internal lights and systems. Following this event, an attack generated electrical discharges throughought the pelican, and enveloped it in a bright light. The pilot sealed himself in the Pelican's cockpit while John-117 opened the troop bay's external door so that he could go on the offensive.[2]
On May 28, John and Echo 216's pilot crash land on the damaged Halo ring, where John proceeds to assault AA guns.[3]

Production notes
- "Our real, concrete, goal was to speak to the theme of rebirth. The pilot resuscitates Chief. Chief brings life and courage to the pilot. The Pelican is brought back to life by Chief. It speaks to the potential of the world we're creating."
