Overview
Design details
- Main article: AV-22 Sparrowhawk
The AV-22B variant is an alteration on the basic airframe of the standard AV-22 Sparrowhawk gunship. Unlike its base variant, the AV-22B is equipped with wing-mounted pylons, mounting three A-74 Sylver missiles on each for a total of six.[1]
Production notes
The AV-22B variant is based on concept art produced during the development of Halo Wars, for the regular Hawk vehicle. The concept version, which features wing-mounted pylons mounting numerous missiles, was canonised in the release of the Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition).[1]
