XRP12 Gremlin
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The Gremlin Combat Support Vehicle is a combat suport vehicle used by the UNSC Marine Corps during 2531, during the early years of the Human-Covenant War. It has been seen engaging enemies with its roof-mounted EMP gun.[1]. It is a Special Purpose Vehicle, whose special ability is to temporarily disable non-infantry units. It is Anders' unique unit and as such it is produced inside the Firebase's Command Center. It can be upgraded with Focusing Lens, to increase its weapon's range and effectiveness or with the Chain Amplifier, an upgrade which allows the EMP gun to hit multiple targets.
Trivia
- It is vaguely similar in appearance to the cut "Cougar" unit, and was likely inspired by it.
- The "Gremlin" moniker is a reference to the folkloric creature of the same name, which aviators sometimes jokingly claim cause mechanical problems in aircraft. An appropriate name, considering the Gremlin's EMP capabilities.
