Is there a human type banshee? If not then here is a suggestion a human pelican type flying vehicle. the driver has rockets and a passenger attached to the bottom has a gattling gun. Easily sniped and blown easily by a rocket but still an awesome vehicle.

Skyhawk jumpjet, its fires a chaingun (70mm i think), and its got scorpion anti-tank missiles (equiv. to fuelrod gun)

So thats the most likely candidate.

Why? It would be equal to the banshee?

Plasma guns = Chaingun
Fuel Rod = Missiles

Its equal, so why would there be 2 people needed, that would kinda suck really...

i agree with Rith but i think it should be OPTIONAL to have 2 people gunning so the guns could fire in independant directions at the same (one pilot with chaingun and one gunner with missiles.), whereas with one person piloting, it should work the same as the banshee where both guns are controlled by the pilot.

thanx if anyone reads this

well not necessarily, remember the boosting ability, you might be able to go full speed but not shoot, but also, remember the fact that in FS the Spartans put the BANSHEEs into like hyperspeed. It wouldnt be very hard to add in, not at all. I suggest u might reconcider ur opinion before Bungie puts out a screen of a dogfight between a banshee and a skyhawk :P

Its not the 'viper' dude, its called the Skyhawk, its in TFOR. Its the human equivalent of the banshee. You just have to remember that in the books, EVERYTHING is beefed up. Like in the game, the banshees cant travel at like 300mph while in the books they do that all the time.

id like one that was as big 2 warthog with 2 machine guns on each wing and a flamethrower on the nose of the plane itd be pretty slow and the pilot would be in plain view for snipers.
