| | ==Is it concept art or canon?== |
| | [[:File:SparrowHawk.jpg|This image]] was probably initially created as concept art, though do you guys think we can consider it canon? It doesn't inaccurately depict the Sparrowhawk and several official sources have used it to represent the Sparrowhawk. It would certainly be a much better infobox image than what we have now. Actually, to specify, either [[:File:AV-22 Sparrowhawk.png|this image]] or a cropped image of one of the Sparrowhawks from the first image would make a better infobox image. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 00:30, 11 June 2016 (EDT) |

| == Fans ==
| |
| | |
| they had this conversation over at the HaloWars forums, but the fans on a future aircraft do make sense. they're probably cheaper to make than jet engines, and because the craft probably is going to be hovering a helluva lot more than even a Pelican, fans would be better for this purpose than jet engines. just saying. -- [[User:Specops306|SpecOps306]] 03:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

| Ya, sort of like a cheaper and more effective helicopter--[[User:The Chazz025|The Chazz025]] and [[User:The Chazz025/Taliban Command (Tango Company)|Clan]] [[User:The Chazz025/Razu'Kuzumee|<sup>[]http://halofanon.wikia.com/wiki/Razu_%27Kuzumee/ Razu 'Kuzumee</sup>]] 01:23, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

| Those "fans" are almost certainly turbine driven "lift fans." A number of craft using this technology were designed and tested in the 60's, but the technology proved impractical with current materials science. The largest such example used a J79 Turbojet powering a fan some 2m in diameter. Compared to a pure jet they offer less thrust but colossally higher propulsive efficiency; a key requirement for a low altitude attack aircraft that will spend the vast majority of its time hovering or moving slowly. Additionally the fans are clearly ducted. This allows the same ammount of lift to be generated with rotor blades up to 40% lesser in diameter. However in order to utilise ducted fans extremely high RPMs and engine Horsepower are required; perfect territory for a jet engine. Ducted fans are already used ona number of UAV prototypes today.

| == Merge Kestrel and Sparrowhawk ==
| |
| :*MERGE - 3
| |
| :*DONT MERGE - 7
| |
| *'''MERGE''' - Sparrohawk is another word for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Kestrel American Kestrel] and I believe the vehicles are one and the same. The entries should be combined. [[User:Bullitt Time|Bullitt Time]] 19:02, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| *'''Dont Merge''' - The Sparrowhawk is probably older than the Deleted [[Kestrel]]. So, I do not think it should be merged together until we get some clear details on how it operates. [[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]] ('''19:37, 11 March 2007 (UTC)''')
| |
| | |
| *'''Dont Merge''' - ^Agreed. [[User:Bullitt Time|Bullitt Time]] 19:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| *'''Don't Merge''' - It may be similar, or an evolution from the design, but it is ''NOT'' the same vehicle, despite any similarities. -- [[User:Specops306|SpecOps306]] 04:26, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

| *'''Merge''' - Not much we can say about the Kestrel, so it could make a nice addition to the Sparrowhawk's trivia section. --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="000000">Dragon<font color="FF0000">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="000000">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 22:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

| *'''Don't Merge'''* There isn't a need to merge them because they're two different vehicles whether or not from the same design.-- [[User:Joshua 029|Joshua 029]] 13:37, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| *'''Don't merge''' Never have any official said that they are the same. And they do not look the same. Oh, and it is the 25th century, not the 21th. So what if they are the same? As long as they have different names, I will not agree. - [[User:R1e2u3b4e5n6|R1e2u3b4e5n6]] 15:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

| I thought the covenant glassed harvest, where goes it say the covenant invaded harvest? [[User:Halofan|HДĿΘFáṆ]] 20:20, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| This is likely because the Covenant tend to invade the planet before glassing it.

| == Hornet ==
| |
| | |
| there's a debate whether the [[Hornet]] gunship is the successor to the Sparrowhawk. I don't think so - the Hornet looks less heavily armed and way smaller, so it probably serves a different role. Would the Sparrowhawk still be in service in 2552?

| Apparentely there was an exerp in contact harvest that Hornets were in service in 2527 so the sparrowhawk could still be in service SWEARINGMONK

| == Predecessor to the SkyHawk? ==
| |
| | |
| Does anyone think that it is? It was before the SkyHawk in the timeline, so just possibly. And the Hornet is the successor to the Sparrowhawk. --[[User:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">Lordofmonsterisland]]</font>[[User talk:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">"Roar to me"</font>]] 18:02, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
