UV-16 Wasp

The UV-16 Wasp is a multipurpose utility VTOL aircraft used by the UNSC.
== Overview ==
A militarized version of the Eurocopter EC-2 Samson, the Wasp serves as an economical alternative to the Pelican for short-range troop and cargo transportation, but can also be configured as a gunship in the absence of dedicated craft. Modifications from the base design of the Samson include lightweight armor plating rated to resist .50 caliber rounds, improved EM shielding, and several weapon hardpoints.
The Wasp's primary armament consists of a nose-mounted Class-III externally-powered projectile weapon controlled via a TADS/PNVS, with additional pintle mounts for crew-served weapons in the troop compartment side doors and a pair of exterior hardpoints compatible with various armament subsystems.
