Specifications
Design details
Free from the sacrifical needs of the San'Shyuum, the Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle's design focuses more of driver survivability, integrated with the latest boosted-gravity drive components. With an internal fuel cell and reinforced shielding, the Type-54 RAV offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older Type-32 Rapid Attack Vehicle.[2]
Variants
- Sword Ghost: The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted T-54 Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.[1]

Operational history
The Type-54 RAV was put into service after the end of the Human-Covenant War, with the Covenant remnants utilizing new manufacturing facilities to produce the model. The Type-54 was used in multiple battles, including the Battle of Kamchatka and various battles in the Blooding Years.[2] By October 2558, Arbiter Thel 'Vadam had used his contacts and influence to purchase T-54 Ghosts for the Swords of Sanghelios that boasted superior armor compared to the Ghosts used by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant.[1] A small number of Ultra Ghosts were used by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant during the Battle of Genesis.[3] Around the same time T-54 Ghosts became popular in War Games matches aboard the UNSC Infinity.[1]
Gameplay
Changes from the Type-32 Ghost in Halo 2 Anniversary
- The Ghost, like its Halo 4 counterpart, once again has a limited amount of time to boost before it has to recharge. In addition to the base model there are also three variants: the Sword Ghost, Ultra Ghost, and Temple Ghost.
- Handling and maneuverability have been vastly improved.
- Plasma cannons' projectile velocity and damage have been increased to compensate for Halo 5's enhanced mobility.
- The Ghost's side engines are its weakpoints; once exposed, if shot there, it will take damage much faster.
