in one of the halo evouloutions storys some spartans encounter 6 elites in high tech stealth armour unseen before , imagine the armour automacticly blends yo its background and they have active camo at the same time, pretty badass in my opinon, as for the drop pods elites do use a version of them but there is no specific unit that uses drop pods exclusivly
p.s would be awesome to see the halo trilogy from elites perspective!
