Role in Halo: Reach[]

Is it possible that the Air Force will play a minor role in Halo: Reach? There are runways outside the facility in the map Sword Base that look like airbases, something Marine/Navy avaiation likely doesn't use. --Gunnery Sergeant Pete Stacker, UNSC Marine Corps 17:51, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

I should hope that it would be a lot more than minor. The UNSC Army gets a fairly big role, so hopefully other services will make an appearance. I'd quite like to see a few more Air Force aircraft; so far we've only seen the F-99 Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle. If the plot degenerates to, "The Army and Air Force screw up and get surrounded and the awesomely badass Marines and SPARTANs break through and save the day," I'll just stop playing.--The All-knowing Sith'ari 19:10, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
Judging by the limited campaign footage in the Vidocs, the Army and Marines appear to be working alongside one another. So hopefully, that problem won't happen. I think their Air Force will be in the game, since Navy aviation is from Naval craft, Marine Aviation is VTOL, no need for runways, and the Army seesms to not even operate vehicles in the game. (The Tanks, Pelicans, and Falcons all have Marine logos on them).--Gunnery Sergeant Pete Stacker, UNSC Marine Corps 19:22, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
I wasn't aware that we knew of any separate emblems for the UNSC Army and Marine Corps. Are there images of them on the wiki? Hopefully though, the Army will operate vehicles: Marines are supposed to be based more around the infantry than armoured vehicles, and in any case, it would be mind-bogglingly idiotic for an Army not to operate armoured vehicles.--The All-knowing Sith'ari 20:42, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
What I meant was that those vehicles have "Marines" stated on them in black letters, not seperate emblems.--Gunnery Sergeant Pete Stacker, UNSC Marine Corps 20:57, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
