And perhaps in the future, figuring out how stuff works, so that we can have an M12C with a fusion plant (Master Chief's armor has one, surely they can fit one in the chassis too), and maybe add some deployable "arms" that have those wall-shields you often see on the ground (or perhaps similar to the ones the jackles like to use, as either one is a pretty compact defensive technology) to allow the vehicle to provide an effective mobile defensive wall it can drive around with. Maybe even mount a pair of plasma-sword "tusks" at the front for ramming stuff, make it REALLY live up to the animal it is named after.

As the door opens up, one Elite immediate jumps out and runs to dropped package in a panic, shouting angrily at the inattentive pilot. He jumps in, activating it, and upon seeing it still functional, relaxes a bit and starts driving to the gate at a frightful speed. All the awaiting people pull back a second, uncertain if this thing won’t just plow right through them.

After much poking and prodding, a loud cough can be heard from behind them. In the confusion, a human in a sharp outdoors jacket and jeans managed to disembark from the Phantom unnoticed. “If you’re interested in that, I have more on board the carrier above for anyone who wants a test drive.” “Me!” “Me!” “Me!” “What is this thing called?!?” “May I introduce the M12 LRV, but you can call it the Warthog.”

While more protection would be good, it also would hamper some of the warthogs qualities. The absence of doors makes mounting and dismounting faster and the same could be said for cargo storage. Also with the lack of doors, the passenger can fire any weapon that they can carry in the UNSC arsenal. Be that an assault rifle, a shotgun, or a rocket launcher. While the gunner is only protected by a thin plate of Titanium-A, the exposed gunner seat provides unrivaled situational awareness. Useful for urban patrols and anti-aircraft duties.
