This Warthog variant appears to be an M12B Warthog chassis. It does not mount a turret in the conventional turret mount such as the [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|LRV]] configuration, but instead mounts a machine gun superficially similar to the [[M247H machine gun]] on top of the vehicle's roll cage while the cargo bed itself is free to store equipment and passengers like [[Scout Warthog]]s. This turret appears to be remotely-controlled by the crew, eliminating the need for a dedicated gunner. In UNSC simulations, this vehicle can be driven and gunned by only one [[SPARTAN-IV]] driver, though it is based on the actions of a full squad of [[ODST]]s, leaving the vehicle's true nature and specifications up for debate.<ref name="HSS">'''[[Halo: Spartan Strike]]'''</ref><ref name="note" group="note">In ''Halo: Spartan Strike'' the player drives this vehicle as a lone SPARTAN-IV. Due to this, the game could not use a regular Warthog as the player would not be able to drive and gun at the same time. It is unknown if this vehicle is intended to serve as a stand-in for what would be, in-canon, a regular Warthog LRV used by the ODSTs of Alpha-Five.</ref>

This vehicle was used in a UNSC simulation of the [[Battle of Mombasa]]. In the simulation, the vehicle was driven by an [[Unidentified Spartan-IV]] in the place of the actual ODST squad [[Alpha-Five]].<ref name="HSS"/> It is unknown if the actual Alpha-Five used this vehicle in the battle.<ref name="note" group="note"/>
