The AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun (not to be confused with the [[M41 LAAG]]) is a standard Gatling-style heavy machine gun, in use by the UNSC for offensive and defensive purposes.

For defensive purposes, it can be mounted on a tripod, but when used for assault it can be detached from its tripod by a [[SPARTAN-II]]'s or [[Elite]]'s brute strength. Pressing B while using the turret in its mounted position can do this. Once detached, the player will appear in a third-person point of view, although the regular targeting reticle is still apparent. It has an infinite ammo capacity while stationary, but removing the turret limits the capacity to up to 200 rounds. | For defensive purposes, it can be mounted on a tripod, but when used for assault it can be detached from its tripod by a [[SPARTAN-II]]'s or [[Elite]]'s brute strength.
