UNSC D-77R Raider
The D-77R is the top of the line, refit of the original D-77 Pelican transport craft.
The Raider is essentially a combination of a Prowler, Pelican, and Broadsword all mashed into one fearsome attack craft. The primary mission of the D-77R, is to support Prowler class vessels by shadowing Covenant ships, and conducting sporadic raids on Covenant Forces, using its arsenal of on board weaponry.
Armament:
1x .50 cal Gatling turret mounted under the nose
2x 30mm fixed forward cannons
2x Mk. 7 High Intensity Chemical Beam Cannons
3x Medusa Missile Pods
1x Cargo Door Turret
Crew: Pilot, Copilot, Weapons Officer, Electronic Warfare Officer, AI Unit, 10 Spartans
Equipment:
Acheron Systems Active Camo Unit
Acheron Systems Holographic Decoy Unit
Traxus ECM Unit
In other words, I drew my own remix of the halo pelican.
