Long Range Stealth Orbital Insertion Pods are a more advanced variant of the UNSC Human Entry Vehicle used by the ODSTs for "helljumps". Unlike HEVs, which must be launched from a vessel in orbit of the target, Long Range Stealth Orbital Insertion Pods can be launched while a ship is actually in slipspace. To date they are the smallest manned UNSC ships that are capable of transitioning into normal space safely. However, it also seems that only spartans can man it. Still, they are, according to occupants, a "bumpy ride."
Their construction consists of simple Titanium-A covered with Lead Foil and a Stealth Ablative Coating to make the ships radar invisible.
