The '''Type-52 Infantry Support Vehicle''' (abbreviated '''Type-52 ISV'''), otherwise known as the '''Brute Prowler'''<ref>EGM Magazine, September 2007 issue</ref>, is a [[Covenant Loyalist]] ground vehicle used by the [[Jiralhanae]] featured in ''[[Halo 3]]''. It is the Brute equivalent of the [[Human]] [[Warthog]].
The '''Qavardu Workshop Light War-Sled'''{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=273}} {{Type|52|Infantry Support Vehicle|ISV}}, informally known among UNSC personnel as the '''Brute Prowler''', is a [[Jiralhanae]] ground vehicle in service with the [[Covenant]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}


== Introduction ==
==Overview==
===Design details===
Measuring {{Convert|23.3|ft|m|sp=us|disp=flip}} in length and {{Convert|13.8|ft|m|sp=us|disp=flip}} in width{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}, the Prowler is a vehicle designed and built by the Jiralhanae.{{Ref/Reuse|TwitterBanished}}{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} Like the other primary Jiralhanae mainstay vehicle - the [[Barukaza Workshop Chopper]] - the Prowler is primarily composed of a large and bulky front section, with the driver seated in the rear. The frontal bulk of the Prowler shields the driver from enemy fire from the front, though the unarmored sides and back leave the driver exposed to enemy fire. The front section of the Prowler is equipped with a single pintle-mounted light plasma cannon, with the operator inset into the vehicle in a manner akin to gunners on some specific [[Wraith]] variants. The plasma cannon is of little practical utility, with drivers instead preferring to use the maw of spikes on the vehicle's front to charge enemy lines and perform ramming attacks instead.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} The sides of the Prowler are kitted out with two "sleds", capable of supporting a passenger each - allowing the Prowler to serve in a limited capacity as a troop transport.


The '''Brute Prowler''' is the designation of the [[Covenant Loyalist|Loyalist's]] replacement for the [[Spectre]] from [[Halo 2]], but this time, driven chiefly by [[Brutes]]. The Prowler seems to hover on a gravity-assisted "sled", as the bottom is a pair of metal runners, with an anti-gravity projector running between them. A [[plasma turret]] is at the fore of the vehicle, while the driver sits in the rear of the vehicle and two passenger seats make up the sides. It is aesthetically similar in its clear-cut, brutal nature to the [[Brute Chopper]]. It uses the same anatomy of the anti-gravitational propulsion like the [[Chopper]] but it uses two dual engines rotating in opposite directions from each other.
When driving, the Prowler is capable of reaching a top speed of {{Convert|58|mph|km/h}}{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} thanks to the aforementioned "sleds" - in actuality dual suspension tracks{{Ref/Reuse|evg}} that use [[Covenant]] [[anti-gravity technology]] with the original Jiralhanae design.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}


The automatic [[Plasma Turret]] is capable of 360 degree movement, making it extremely dangerous as it allows the vehicle to target enemies regardless of which way the prowler is facing. This makes it very difficult to ambush prowlers, as a competent gunner will constantly check all directions for enemy movement. Like most other [[Brute]] vehicles, it is an effective battering ram. While the vehicle cannot strafe, it is capable of tilting from side to side by using left and right on the left analog stick.
===Development history===
The Prowler is a Jiralhanae-native design, originating from the [[Qavardu War-Forge]]s on [[Doisac]] and later improved though modern-era production models manufactured by the [[Sacred Promissory]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} These Covenant improvements marry Covenant technology to the original Jiralhanae design. The design's particular origins remain unclear, though some have suggested that the original Prowlers may have originated as arctic fast-attack vehicles (FAVs) or maritime patrol boats.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}


[[Image:Brute Prowler 3.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Two Prowlers combining deadly plasma cannon fire on a target.]]
Curiously, the Prowler bears an extremely heavy resemblance to another Jiralhanae vehicle; the [[Eklon'Dal Workshop Marauder]]. While it is unknown if there is any definitive link between the two craft, the resemblance is extremely notable with the Marauder having been constructed and use since prior to the [[First Immolation|nuclear wars]] that devasted the [[Doisac|Jiralhanae homeworld]] long ago.{{Ref/Game|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Marauder}}
The two side-mounted seats on either side of the turret housing increases the vehicles deadliness. If the passengers are armed with powerful explosive weaponry, such as a [[Fuel Rod Cannon]] or [[Rocket Launcher]], the Prowler can effectively take out large armored vehicles such as [[M808B Scorpion MBT|Scorpion]] or [[Wraith]] tanks. If the passengers decide to use automatic weapons such as a [[Plasma Rifle]], they can complement the plasma turret and make for an extremely effective weapons platform for cutting down infantry and suppressing light vehicles. It is also effective if passengers are armed with [[Type-52 Pistol|Maulers]] or [[Shotgun|Shotguns]], as they can shoot any enemy that gets close to the prowler.  


Unlike the [[Warthog]] and the older [[Spectre]], the gunner is not standing up in the turret, but is sitting, or standing, in a cavity in the center of the vehicle. The gunner's cavity covers their lower bodies, leaving only their upper back and head exposed. The gun is also in a more central location than the other two vehicles, giving them even more protection. The driver also receives protection from being the rear, with the entire bulk of the Prowler in front of him. Though, unlike many other Covenant vehicles the prowler lacks a boost function, but it is still fairly fast.
===Usage===
The Prowler is one of the Jiralhanae's traditional war-sleds, employed for raids, reconnaissance and traditional infantry support. The Prowler's swift and rugged design is considered ideal for Jiralhanae hunting [[pack]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


A key advantage of the Prowler is its stability: one can throw it almost recklessly over jumps and cliffs that would be unsafe, unfeasible, or downright stupid in a Warthog or Spectre.  This is mostly due to the "sleds" on the underside of the vehicle.  When airborne, the two sleds will extend outward to either side, widening the surface area of the bottom of the vehicle, and therefore making it more likely that it will land in the proper position when it hits the ground. The sleds also seem to allow the Prowler a limited "glide" when making large jumps. Also the skids lift up so you can with an insane amount of luck dodge rockets.
===Operational history===
The Prowler was first developed by the Jiralhanae as a traditional war-sled for hunting packs on Doisac. These initial design templates were created by the ''Qavardu'' war-forges.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


In [[Forge]] mode, it can be inserted in the maps [[Avalanche (Level)|Avalanche]], [[Snowbound (Level)|Snowbound]], [[High Ground (Level)|High Ground]] and [[Sandtrap (Level)|Sandtrap]].
The Prowler was one of a number of armaments and vehicles manufactured and modified by the Sacred Promissory for the Jiralhanae close to the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]], in preparation for the Jiralhanae takeover of the Covenant armed forces. It was first in the final months of the war{{Ref/Reuse|TwitterBanished}}, seeing use primarily during the [[Battle of Installation 00]].{{Ref/Level|H3|The Ark (level)|The Ark}}{{Ref/Level|H3|The Covenant (level)|The Covenant}} It was later employed by [[Voice of Maardoth|the forces]] under the command of [[Hekabe]] during [[Carrow Conflict]] following the war's end.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENV1|HEnv|Chapter=1}} More recently, it has been employed in the stockpiles of the [[Banished]]{{Ref/Reuse|TwitterBanished}}, with [[Castor]] considering their deployment during [[Operation: WOLFE]] in [[2559]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR7|HSOR|Chapter=7}}


== Advantages ==
== In-game information ==
Unlike the Warthog, which is prone to rollovers, the Prowler is incredibly stable, and like the Chopper, it is hard to flip over. The Prowler can also fit one more passenger than the Warthog can. The Prowler is also more effective than the Warthog at splattering enemies, and can easily be used as a battering ram. The Prowler also possesses much more firepower than the [[Ghost]] or [[Chopper]], and it has a much larger field of fire. With performance, its main advantage is the fast acceleration to easily escape a team of Spartans in a game of say, Capture The Flag. It also notably accelerates quickly in reverse as well.
The Prowler appears only in ''[[Halo 3]]''. It was intended to appear in the now-cancelled ''[[Halo Online]]''.
=== Campaign ===
The Prowler is a light recon vehicle, much like the [[Warthog]]. It only appears in [[Campaign]] mode on the levels [[The Ark (level)|The Ark]] and [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]. It has moderate infantry support capabilities, as well as being able to transport four soldiers rapidly across a battlefield. With two Prowlers, an entire team of eight can travel together. A Prowler loaded with a gunner and two riders with heavy weapons is a force to be reckoned with.


== Disadvantages ==
=== Multiplayer ===
Although very stable, the Prowler cannot turn as well as the Warthog. The Prowler also provides less protection from the sides and rear for the driver than the Warthog does. The Prowler may be the replacement to the Spectre, but it does not have all of the capability as to the Spectre. Compared to the Spectre, the Prowler is not able to strafe left and right, and will not be able to boost like a [[Ghost]]. Although the Prowler has more firepower than the Chopper and the Ghost it is not as well suited for direct assaults and splattering, as it is unable to boost. In a head-on collision between a Brute Prowler and a Brute Chopper, the Chopper will normally destroy the Prowler. It is however, in terms of firepower, much weaker than the [[UNSC]] Warthog. Also, the driver is prone to about 270 degrees of fire making the driver more exposed.
* The Prowler does not appear on any ''Halo 3'' map by default, but can be added in [[Forge]] on certain maps. In [[Matchmaking]], the Prowler appears on alternate Sandtrap map variants [[Sand Tarp]] and "Sandtrap Heavy", as well as on the Avalanche variant "Avalanche Heavy".
* Prowlers can be very useful in [[CTF]] games, because it can carry four people. The driver could drive to the flag's area possibly splattering a defender or two; the gunner could provide cover fire while the two passengers go in to get the flag. One passenger could cover the flag carrier while they make their way back to the Prowler for a quick getaway.
* Prowlers are an excellent way of splattering if used correctly. The large front end of the Prowler can be used to block enemy fire, giving the driver a clear run at their victim. The large area of the Prowler can also compensate for the slower speed, in that at its top speed it is quite easy for the driver to splatter people and hard for others to avoid

The vehicle is a light recon vehicle much like the Warthog, replacing it on certain maps or based upon game settings. It only appears in [[Campaign]] on the levels [[The Ark]] and [[The Covenant]]. It has infantry support capabilities, as well as being able to transport four soldiers rapidly across a battlefield.
During the [[Development of Halo 3|development]] of ''[[Halo 3]]'', the Prowler was concepted and designed under the name of the "Mauler". The Mauler name was later applied to a [[Ukala Workshop Mauler|shotgun-pistol]] instead.{{Ref/Book|AOH3|Page=157}} This name was erroneously referred to in [[Robert McLees]]' fictional [[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present|reports]] on the [[M6/R Spartan Laser]] in the marketing for ''Halo 3'', in which a [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] of [[E2-BAG/1/7]] refers to his Spartan Laser punching a whole through two Jiralhanae and severely damaging the vehicle they had just dismounted.{{Ref/Site|Id=bnetspartanlaser|URL=http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=charginmalasers|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Spartan Laser|D=02|M=02|Y=2007|LocalArchive=Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present#Weapon/Anti-Vehicle Model 6 Grindell/Galileian Nonlinear Rifle}}
 
== Trivia ==
*The Prowler turret is one of two ''Brute'' vehicle that uses Plasma Projectiles in [[Halo 3]].
*The Prowler almost exactly resembles an angler fish, with the front as a mouthful of teeth, the raised turret seat as the anglerfish's signature light, the driver seat as the tail, and the back as the fin.
*The Prowler appears to be similar in appearance to a Snow-Mobile or Sand-Mobile. It is also somewhat resembles a boat, featuring a small rudder-like object behind the driver's seat.
*This is a vehicle in the [[Campaign]] that you can use to get the [[Used Car Salesman]] achievement.
*[[Bungie]] has yet to disclose and reveal a reason why the Prowler hasn't appeared on any maps in Matchmaking, or on any map by default.
*Prowlers are based on the UNSC Warthog.
*Prowlers are also based on the [[Spectre|Elite Spectre]].
*Prowlers are considerably useful in a Custom [[Infection]] game and [[CTF]].
*The Pilot sees through two eyes in front of the driving seat.
*The Chopper can only destroy the Prowler from the front, unless it boosts from the air.
*When hijacking the gunner out of his turret, Elites tend to do a backflip and kick them out.
*Although a prowler is capable of surviving a direct hit from a rocket, it usually results in the death of the driver.

The Qavardu Workshop Light War-Sled[1] (UNSC Type classification: Type-52 Infantry Support Vehicle, T-52 ISV), informally known among UNSC personnel as the Brute Prowler, is a Jiralhanae ground vehicle in service with the Covenant.[4][5]

Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Measuring 7.1 meters (23.3 ft) in length and 4.2 meters (13.8 ft) in width[2], the Prowler is a vehicle designed and built by the Jiralhanae.[6][3] Like the other primary Jiralhanae mainstay vehicle - the Barukaza Workshop Chopper - the Prowler is primarily composed of a large and bulky front section, with the driver seated in the rear. The frontal bulk of the Prowler shields the driver from enemy fire from the front, though the unarmored sides and back leave the driver exposed to enemy fire. The front section of the Prowler is equipped with a single pintle-mounted light plasma cannon, with the operator inset into the vehicle in a manner akin to gunners on some specific Wraith variants. The plasma cannon is of little practical utility, with drivers instead preferring to use the maw of spikes on the vehicle's front to charge enemy lines and perform ramming attacks instead.[3] The sides of the Prowler are kitted out with two "sleds", capable of supporting a passenger each - allowing the Prowler to serve in a limited capacity as a troop transport.

When driving, the Prowler is capable of reaching a top speed of 58 miles per hour (93 km/h)[3] thanks to the aforementioned "sleds" - in actuality dual suspension tracks[2] that use Covenant anti-gravity technology with the original Jiralhanae design.[3]

Development history[edit]

The Prowler is a Jiralhanae-native design, originating from the Qavardu War-Forges on Doisac and later improved though modern-era production models manufactured by the Sacred Promissory.[1] These Covenant improvements marry Covenant technology to the original Jiralhanae design. The design's particular origins remain unclear, though some have suggested that the original Prowlers may have originated as arctic fast-attack vehicles (FAVs) or maritime patrol boats.[3]

Curiously, the Prowler bears an extremely heavy resemblance to another Jiralhanae vehicle; the Eklon'Dal Workshop Marauder. While it is unknown if there is any definitive link between the two craft, the resemblance is extremely notable with the Marauder having been constructed and use since prior to the nuclear wars that devasted the Jiralhanae homeworld long ago.[7]

Usage[edit]

The Prowler is one of the Jiralhanae's traditional war-sleds, employed for raids, reconnaissance and traditional infantry support. The Prowler's swift and rugged design is considered ideal for Jiralhanae hunting packs.[1]

Operational history[edit]

The Prowler was first developed by the Jiralhanae as a traditional war-sled for hunting packs on Doisac. These initial design templates were created by the Qavardu war-forges.[1]

The Prowler was one of a number of armaments and vehicles manufactured and modified by the Sacred Promissory for the Jiralhanae close to the end of the Human-Covenant War, in preparation for the Jiralhanae takeover of the Covenant armed forces. It was first in the final months of the war[6], seeing use primarily during the Battle of Installation 00.[8][9] It was later employed by the forces under the command of Hekabe during Carrow Conflict following the war's end.[10] More recently, it has been employed in the stockpiles of the Banished[6], with Castor considering their deployment during Operation: WOLFE in 2559.[11]

In-game information[edit]

The Prowler appears only in Halo 3. It was intended to appear in the now-cancelled Halo Online.

Campaign[edit]

The Prowler is a light recon vehicle, much like the Warthog. It only appears in Campaign mode on the levels The Ark and The Covenant. It has moderate infantry support capabilities, as well as being able to transport four soldiers rapidly across a battlefield. With two Prowlers, an entire team of eight can travel together. A Prowler loaded with a gunner and two riders with heavy weapons is a force to be reckoned with.

Multiplayer[edit]

  • The Prowler does not appear on any Halo 3 map by default, but can be added in Forge on certain maps. In Matchmaking, the Prowler appears on alternate Sandtrap map variants Sand Tarp and "Sandtrap Heavy", as well as on the Avalanche variant "Avalanche Heavy".
  • Prowlers can be very useful in CTF games, because it can carry four people. The driver could drive to the flag's area possibly splattering a defender or two; the gunner could provide cover fire while the two passengers go in to get the flag. One passenger could cover the flag carrier while they make their way back to the Prowler for a quick getaway.
  • Prowlers are an excellent way of splattering if used correctly. The large front end of the Prowler can be used to block enemy fire, giving the driver a clear run at their victim. The large area of the Prowler can also compensate for the slower speed, in that at its top speed it is quite easy for the driver to splatter people and hard for others to avoid

During the development of Halo 3, the Prowler was concepted and designed under the name of the "Mauler". The Mauler name was later applied to a shotgun-pistol instead.[12] This name was erroneously referred to in Robert McLees' fictional reports on the M6/R Spartan Laser in the marketing for Halo 3, in which a Marine of E2-BAG/1/7 refers to his Spartan Laser punching a whole through two Jiralhanae and severely damaging the vehicle they had just dismounted.[13]
