It was also installed on the [[Grizzly]] tanks created by [[Sergeant]] [[John Forge]].<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/globalheatmaps.aspx '''Bungie.net''': ''Global Heatmaps'']</ref><ref>'''''Halo Wars''''' Leader Card: Sergeant Forge</ref>  It has a much shorter barrel than the standard model.
The '''M247T Medium Machine Gun''', formally '''Machine Gun, Caliber 7.62 mm, M247''', is a variant of the [[M247 General Purpose Machine Gun]] produced by [[Misriah Armory]] and used by the [[UNSC Defense Force]]. It is primarily outfitted on the [[M808 Main Battle Tank|M808 "Scorpion" Main Battle Tank]] as an onboard anti-infantry weapon.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/globalheatmaps.aspx '''Bungie.net''': ''Global Heatmaps'']</ref> The standard M808 model uses a pintle-mounted M247T with a dedicated operator's compartment near the front of the vehicle. On the [[M808B Main Battle Tank|M808B variant]], the weapon is instead mounted coaxially to the right of the [[M512 smooth-bore high-velocity cannon|main gun turret]]. The latter mounting configuration is shared with the [[M850 Main Battle Tank|M850 "Grizzly" MBT]].
