"The Mongoose is great for quick getaways and exceptional jumps."
— Halo 4: Official Game Guide[2]

The Mongoose is a light human ground vehicle first introduced in Halo 3. It is a small vehicle with no form of armament whatsoever, which can carry one driver and one passenger, and is best used for transporting players around the map or level quickly, rather than as a vehicle for combat.

Universe and lore

Blah blah blah Mongoose is a vehicle.

The following is a list of all vehicles known by the "Mongoose" moniker in Halo lore that have appeared in the games:

Overview

General info here

Unlock and acquisition requirements

In most Halo games, the Mongoose can simply be found either on certain Multiplayer maps or in certain Campaign missions and doesn't need to be unlocked.

Halo 5: Guardians

In Halo 5: Guardians, the Mongoose can be found on some Arena multiplayer maps and in certain campaign levels.[3][4]

However, it can be acquired through the Requisition (REQ) system. To begin receiving the Mongoose regularly in REQ packs, one must unlock the certification. Something that can be acquired randomly from any type of pack.[5][6]

Variants

REQ variants, brute plasma rifle in the case of the plasma rifle, suppressed SMG in the case of the SMG, etc, Gungoose & REQ variants in this case.

Counterparts

No direct analogous counterparts exist to the Mongoose. However several vehicles, come close to it in size or roughly the role they play in gameplay.

For the Covenant, the Ghost is a close size counterpart to the Mongoose. Although the Ghost is a single seat vehicle, with mounted weaponry and a boosting function.

The UNSC also has other vehicles that do the same role or of similar size. The Jackrabbit of Halo Wars 2 performs and is of similar size to the Mongoose. With the weapon upgrade, the Jackrabbit can also perform similarly to a Mongoose with a passenger in the first-person shooter games.

The Scout Warthog is the closest to the Mongoose in terms of gameplay. It is weaponless, with only one seat for a passenger though it is considerably larger than the Mongoose.

The Troop Transport Warthog while also unarmed, provides much more transportation capabilities than the Mongoose.

*Needs better name. General idea is to distinguish between wheeled vehicles and anti-gravity vehicles, since they play and behave differently.
