The Type-52 Phantom is one of the primary [[dropship]]s in service with the Covenant.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} Introduced into the [[2552|final year]] of the [[Human-Covenant War]], the Type-52 Phantom was created by [[Assembly Forges]] to replace the earlier [[Type-44 Phantom]] as its improvement over it in every way.{{Ref/Reuse|HW}}{{Ref/Note|Id=introduced|Text=While ''Halo: Waypoint'' clearly claims that the Type-52 Phantom was introduced as the successor of the older [[Type-44 Phantom]] (properly introduced in ''[[Halo 4]]'') in the last year of the war in [[2552]], this statement, however, may contradict the use of Phantom dropships earlier throughout the [[Human-Covenant War]] that were distinctly depicted as Type-52 Phantoms as seen on several products such as ''[[Halo Legends]]'' films, ''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]'', ''[[Halo: Rise of Atriox]]''.}} | ||
