The Type-57 Dropship Troop Carrier (T-57 DTC),[2] colloquially known as the Phantom by UNSC forces, is a dropship in service with various Covenant remnant factions.[1]

Specifications

Design details

Whereas Phantom models produced under the Covenant's reign had to comply with San'Shyuum architectural strictures, the Type-57 Phantom sports a traditional Sangheili design. Its appearance is inspired by aquatic predators found on Sangheili colonies. The new Phantom is one of several post-Covenant Sangheili-designed vehicles to bear this design philosophy, an aesthetic which the San'Shyuum found inelegant.[1] The T-57 is easy to manufacture and maintain without access to high-tier fabrication facilities, at the sacrifice of exoatmospheric performance.[2]

Operational history

The Type-57 DTC was put into service in the aftermath of the end of the Human-Covenant War due to dwindling numbers of Type-44 and Type-52 Phantoms.[2] Various factions—most notably Jul 'Mdama's Covenant and the Swords of Sanghelios—called upon allied colonies and renovated long-abandoned manufacturing facilities to produce the dropship, along with other war matériel. The Type-57 was used in multiple battles, including the Battle of Kamchatka and various engagements in the Blooding Years.[1]
