Mikpramu-pattern Phantom
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The Type-57 Dropship Troop Carrier (T-57 DTC), 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 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]
Operational history
The Type-57 DTC was put into service after the end of the Human-Covenant War, with various factions utilizing existing and long-abandoned manufacturing facilities to produce the model. The Type-57 was used in multiple battles, including the Battle of Kamchatka and various engagements in the Sangheili civil war.[1]
