Anvil-II air-to-surface missile
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
A ANVIL-II ASM missle pod mounted on a D77-TC Pelican
The Anvil-II Air-to-Surface Missiles are normally mounted via rocket pods on Pelican dropships or SkyHawk atmospheric jump-jets for clearing ground targets and drop zones of enemies.[1]
This explosive is seen used three times in game play, once when you are assaulting the Scarab in Metropolis. Another time is in Quarantine Zone, when a flood-controlled Pelican flies by and shoots down some Sentinel Majors. It as also on the second Pelican that shows up at the start of the level Delta Halo.
