The '''Special Operations Commander Elite''' is a [[Covenant]] [[Elite|Sangheili (Elite)]] position.
 
==Rank==
 
Special Operations Commander is a position/office among the [[Ultra Elites|Ultra]]s and the [[Special Operations Elite]]s,  not an actual rank ''per se'' (much like how Battalion Commander is a position but Major or Lieutenant Colonel is the actual rank). Thus far, only one [[Elites|Elite]] has been seen with this unique position, [[Rtas 'Vadumee]]. A Special Operations Commander commands a troupe of [[Special Operations Elite]]s, much as the name of his position implies.
 
==Armor==
 
It's armor is slightly different from that of a normal Ultra's. The armor is white, with a slightly darker variant of white as the secondary color.
 
Thus far, only an Ultra has been featured holding this unique position. However, larger spec ops units are probably commanded by a [[Zealot]], thus the armor type may have many variations. This is assuming Rtas 'Vadumee's slightly different armor is indeed due to him being a spec ops commander.
 
Units that are smaller than the one commanded by 'Vadumee may have lower ranking elites in charge of them, but it is unlikly they are commanded by anything lower than another black armored spec ops elite ([[Zuka 'Zamamee]] for example).
 
==Combat==
 
Most of the time, the Special Operations Commanders are seen wielding Energy Swords, but can use any Covenant and UNSC weapon. They can also drive any human or covenant vehicle, but are only seen in [[Spectre]]s and [[Wraith]]s.
 
==Appearances==
===''[[Halo 2]]''===
 
====[[Rtas 'Vadumee]]====
This is a list of where 'Vadumee appears in Halo 2. Note: he leads the Spec Ops Elites that the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]] works with on [[Threshold]].
 
* [[The Arbiter (level)]] - 'Vadumee is the commander of the Special Operations force (Arbiter, Special Operations Elites, and [[Special Operations Grunts]]) that storms the [[Gas Mine]], and coordinates the attack from the safety of a Phantom.
 
* [[The Oracle (level)]] - He joins in onthe attack, fighting the [[Heretic]]s and [[Flood]]. At one point, however, he and his men withdraw, leaving the Arbiter to fight off the enemies to kill the [[Sesa 'Refumee|Heretic Leader]]. Then, 'Vadumme appears to exfiltrate the Arbiter from the Gas Mine in his Phantom.
 
* [[Quarantine Zone]] - Special Operations Elites assisted the Arbiter in forging a path to the [[Library]]. About at the two-thirds mark, Rtas 'Vadumee sent a Phantom with another [[Spectre]] and more Spec Ops Elites to assist. When the Covenant force reached the gondolas, further Elites defended the gondola from Flood attacks. When the gondola halted, Elites awaited on the gondola to protect their sole exfiltration craft as the Arbiter retrieved the [[Index|Sacred Icon]]. It is likely that the [[Brute]]s slaughtered the remaining commandos that were defending the Gondola - one of the first acts of the [[Covenant Civil War]].
 
* The Great Journey - Rtas 'Vadumme drives a [[Wraith]], escorting the Arbiter to the mouth of the Brute fortress before leaving the Arbiter to kill the [[Brute Chieftan|Chieftan]] [[Tartarus]], moving instead to retake a Brute-held [[CCS-class Battlecruiser]] in extreme low orbit(E.L.O.).
