Does any of you guys know if those weird covenant tanks ( Wraiths) will appear on halo 2 and will they be possible to use?

They will be in. You can shoot off the canister armour now and then when its all exposed, you can blow the internal canister to hell! I think it would be drivable seeing as its sort of the covenants answer to the scorpian.

Similar vehicles chart:

Rabbit ATV (pilotable) - Ghost (pilotable) [similarities are a bit "iffy" though).
Warthog (pilotable) - Shadow (pilotable)
Scorpian (pilotable) - Wraith (????)

I'll let you draw your own conclusions although its just MY theory and not confirmed.

Yeah every vehicle has a "flip" feature. If you stay in the pelican on that level too at the start a message saying "Press X to flip Pelican" also appears before you fall to your doom.

I've never flipped a Wraith, I always blow them up and they stay upright. But I beg that they are pilotable in Halo 2. Spartans used them in First Strike so by all rights they should be pilotable as all races can use them.
Wraiths should be pilotable

To flip the wraith you must snipe the elite before he gets into it. Then the wraith is undriven and flippable. Also it was the only vehicle that you could destroy while there was no pilot.

Damn, I keep saying "pilot" instead of "driver"...

In assault on the control room, in that parte where there are two wraiths one on the ground and one up on the cliff, and two hunters guarding the entrance to the base, if you try a lot, you can flip the first wraith there with the scorpion.
