This article is about the post-Covenant war Covenant vehicle. For other uses, see Ghost (disambiguation).

The Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle, more commonly identified as the Ghost by the UNSC, is a standard reconnaissance and rapid attack vehicle in service with various Covenant remnant factions.^[1]

Specifications

Design details

The Type-54 Rapid Attack Vehicle features a sleek biomimetic carapace and is integrated with the latest boosted-gravity drive components. This along with other improvements means the Type-54 RAV offers a greater level of protection and higher performance compared to the older Type-32 Rapid Attack Vehicle.^[1]

Variants

Sword Ghost: The Swords of Sanghelios field crimson-painted T-54 Ghosts with improved armor over the standard models.^[2]
Ghost Ultra: Ultra Ghosts are next-generation, silver-painted T-54s with even greater armor and more powerful plasma cannons than the Sword Ghost. Ghost Ultras are exclusively produced by the independent Sangheili colony of Whispering Trees.^[2]

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.^[1] 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.^[2] 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.^[2]

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 two variants: the Sword Ghost and Ultra Ghost.
