The cargo tug is a light transport craft of Covenant design.[1]

Design details

Virtually identical in outward appearance to the Type-29 Shadow, it is nonetheless a distinct vehicle, most conspicuously distinguished by its flight capability and featuring enclosed cockpits across the vehicle, unlike the standard Shadow.[1] It has a small cargo capacity and has been described as "about as dangerous as a toothpick".[1] It seemingly appears to share the same size as the Shadow, and as well as equipped with at least one heavy plasma cannon at its summit.[1] As such, the cargo tug may be likely considered an aircraft configuration and variant for the Type-29 Shadow.

Operational history

Battle of Ealen IV

A cargo tug left in the Covenant industrial facilities on Ealen IV was used to transport the human, Sangheili and Jiralhanae delegation to UNSC Infinity in orbit during Shipmaster Vata 'Gajat's attack to thwart the negotiations in early 2558.[1]
