Do ya think that there will be an actual airforce on our side of the fight? I mean, we only have pelicans so far, and they hardly do anything except drop Marines and Mister Chief off at enemy positions... Maybe some sort of attack helicopter except evolved, like something that would be the equivalent to the Banshee. Anyway, it'd be nice.

I got his sarcasm...one person has to implement sarcasm and then you get a pile of terrorist chipmunks crashing your party, not fun at all..

If you actually paid attention to cutscenes you'd note the Longsword. If you've seen the LE DVD then ou would've seen the VTOL aircraft. And if you've read Halo:TFOR then you would've read about both.

EDIT: I just re-read the first post. Seriously, I'd suggest going through Halo 2's campaign. Pelicans have 2 MG's one at the back of the craft and one in the nose. Not only that, they can carry Anvil missile pods. You can see them in Metropolis. When the Scarab stops a Pelican fires Anvils at its legs to immobolize it. In the mission Delta Halo, after the last Phantom leaves 2 Pelicans arrive on the scene one can be seen quite clearly with Anvils. In the Arbiter level where you start with the Spectre and ghosts(I cant remember the name was it Quarantine zone?). A Pelican can be seen firing Anvils at enemies.

Helicopters would be ridiculous. Why, after mastering levitation (as noted by the Pelican, which can hover until it runs out of fuel) would we use a vehicle that is as slow and vulnerable as a Helicopter.

A sort of light attack craft is what we need. Based off of the Banshee idea, a aerial assualt vehicle capable of doing damage to enemy vehicles and infantry, quick speeds and a plentiful arsenal.
