The crashed wreckage of Echo 51.

Echo 51 was a UNSC Pelican dropship in service in late 2552, during the final battles of the Human-Covenant War.

That year, the Pelican was used during the Second Battle of Earth, and the Second Battle of New Mombasa. There, Echo 51 and another unknown Pelican were sent to retrieve John-117 and the Thel 'Vadamee as well as Sergeant Major Avery Johnson and several Marines. Unfortunately, the two Pelicans were ambushed by Covenant Banshees and Phantoms piloted by the Brutes. Echo 051 was able to manoeuvre away from the enemy fire, even though it took a direct hit on its front starboard engine as it was loading soldiers, spinning out of control and crashing upside down near a cliff where its survivors, including Sergeant Johnson, were captured by the Brutes. Its unknown wingman spun in the same direction but crashed in the river, sinking to the bottom.

Kilo 23 was later sent to retrieve the remaining survivors of the crash of Echo 51, Master Chief, and the Arbiter. .

At Echo 51's crash-site, there is a SRS99D-S2 AM Sniper Rifle (Which is comes in very handy later on), BR55HB SR Battle Rifle, MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System and ample Frags
