Like the Covenant Banshee.. Humans should have A Flying Vehicle also. Now.. Even though this name might sound cheesy.. I think it should be called a MINI LONGSWORD FIGHTER! Here are the Stats:

Weapons:
- Infinite Rockets- That take time to reload after being used. Capable though having a strong and medium size Radius of Damage. The Rockets are on Both sides of the vehicle and each side has 4 pods. These rocket have a LIMITED HOMING Feature which cant make tight turns and such but can home in on Slow Moving Vehicles or Infantry. Fast Moving Vehicles can escape very easily.
- Infinite LAAG Gun- That does alot of damage if your close enough to it. If your still a long distance away from it the odds of it hitting you are a million to one... This gun is really useful on Infantry or Dive Bombing attacks.

Carries:
- It carries Two Peoples:
- Driver: Can Only Attack. It cannot Jump out of the Vehicle like what you can do on a Banshee.
- Passanger: Cannot Attack but can jump out of the vehicle at a Very Low Altitude.

Layout:
- Its a Mix between the Pelican and the Longsword Fighter... Only though its smaller than the two of them.
- It has relativly Slow Speed.
- However its hard to shoot it out of the air like a banshee. It would need 5 Rocket Attacks or a Long Barage of LAAG Bullets.

Size:
- Bigger than a Warthog But a Bit Smaller than a Tank... Lenght not as long as a tank but Wider than a Tank!

This description aren't too bad, I could see these working, though I think Bungie might already have a human combat aircraft in production for the game already. I hope.

Well really the stationary gun the humans get now could be used be used as a anti-aircraft gun. As for the aircraft I think I saw a render of it a few months back on some site I forgot about by now, it looked weird though.

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

The Humans have a Banshee counter, it's talked about in FoR. It is called the SkyHawk. And I beleive Bungie is throwing this is so there is even vehicles, the Longsword is not the counter to the Banshee, it is the counter to the large Sereph, fighters. Also, the SkyHawk is rumored to use a chain gun and missle pods. And is a one manned aircraft.

I am reading FoR now and i think that putting in the Skyhawk would be a great idea.... but they should tone down the missles cuz in the book they seem pretty -blam!- powerful

Well if they do put it in, (which I think they will), I trust Bungie to make it even and balanced.

Can't be all that powerful. Heck even the Chief survived one of those missiles....even if he did deflect it a little bit.
