==Trivia==
These Sentinels deploy out of the ground vertically, with the "bottom" of the Sentinel in the vertical configuration rotated to face forward, firing the aforementioned energy beam.{{Ref/Reuse|origin}}
*The machine is only seen in the ''[[Halo Legends]]'' episode ''[[Origins]]''.
 
*This Sentinel variant may be an adaptation of the [[Forerunner Tank]], which was cut from ''[[Halo 2]]''.
==Production notes==
{{Quote|Basically filling the role of mobile, full-service construction operations, these ''Petronas Towers''-sized sentinels extract raw materials from the source, processes them in transit and deposits building materials at the work site. The work site being a Halo.|''[[The Art of Halo 3]]''{{Ref/Reuse|AOH3}}}}
Although first appearing in ''[[Halo Legends]]''{{'}} ''[[Origins]]'' part one short, these Sentinels were originally designed and concepted by [[Bungie]] for ''[[Halo 3]]'', making them one of a number of designs including the [[Guardian Sentinel|Guardian]] and [[Strato-Sentinel]]s and [[Forerunner City]] to brought back from the cutting room floor in such a manner. In the original game, the Sentinels were intended to be similar to the Strato-Sentinels, involved with construction and materials extraction for the [[Halo Array]].{{Ref/Book|Id=AOH3|AOH3|Page=30-31}}
