==Overview== | |||
===Design details=== | |||
The Reaver is a heavily-armoured bipedal combat walker. Despite its heavy armour plating, the walker is considered agile in nature, able to use a series of in-built jump-jet systems to quickly launch itself into the air and access more advantageous firing positions.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The vehicle is manufactured by the [[Crucibles of Dovotaa]], a [[clan workshop]] of the Dovotaa clan, bearing the marks of both workshop and [[Assembly Forges|assembly forge]] construction.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} An armoured canopy is situated in the front of the vehicle, covered in thick armour plating.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||
===Armaments=== | |||
In its role as an [[Anti-aircraft weapon|anti-air]] system, the Reaver is primarily fitted with two [[Thrasher missile]] pods, with each pod containing five launch tubes. For self-defence against lighter ground targets, the Reaver has twin [[Spike cannon|spike autocannons]] mounted just below the cockpit canopy{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} - with the weapons themselves seemingly built into the housing of two {{Pattern|Zubo|beam rifle}}s. | |||
The sensor system for the Reaver was taken from an old salvaged [[Covenant]] [[Augur array|augur assembly]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||
===Variants=== | |||
*'''[[Prowling Reaver]]''' - a variant of the Reaver fitted with [[active camouflage]] technology. | |||

They have largely replaced the [[skyhunter]] series of [[Wraith]]s and anti-aerospace fortifications in the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} The Banished deployed many Reavers against the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} on [[Installation 00]] in March [[2559]].{{Ref/Reuse|HW2}} | ||
In December of 2559, Reavers were deployed by Banished forces on [[Reach]] to defend against an [[Operation: WOLFE|attack]] by [[United Nations Space Command]] forces on the [[Menachite portal complex]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR14|HSoR|Chapter=14}} | |||
