This article is a stub. You can help Halopedia by expanding it.

The Han was a small, slipspace capable, diplomatic shuttle. It was equipped with cryo tubes, suggesting a possible crew of up to 40 personnel, and the AI Toran. Though the ship was designed for passenger comfort and had showers and a rotating midsection providing gravity, this left less room for the crew. In addition, the bridge was extremely small and lacked any form of artificial gravity.

In 2517, Lieutenant (J.G.) Jacob Keyes and Dr. Catherine Halsey used the Han to study each of the Spartan-candidate children, including John-117. Also,in 2517 Dr.halsey choose Jacob Keyes to pilot the Han because he could keep a secret.

Trivia

• The ship's name may be a reference to Star Wars character Han Solo or the Chinese Han Dynasty.
• The shuttle was noted by Second Lieutenant Jacob Keyes as not able to stand up in any real Space action, he was worried that the shuttle would be ambushed by pirates on his first slip with Dr. Halsey to the Eridanus II system.
