Engine type Propane
Max speed Slow
Color(s) Tan
Function(s) Driving

The S-2 Traxus Cargo Transporter is a forklift designed by Traxus Heavy Industries in the Halo universe.

Design

The S-2 is simple and utilitarian in design. Powered by propane, it is used for lifting and transporting crates and boxes that are too heavy to transport by hand, within the 5 ton range.

Due to personal injury lawsuits on Earth, Tribute, and Skopje, the S-2 featured several improvements over the S-1. This included a kill switch, safety sensor, and a few other alterations.

Gameplay

In Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST, it is a scenery item and can be found in many levels, both in campaign and multiplayer. It can be seen in the campaign levels Crow's Nest and The Storm. In Halo 3, it is also a Forge object.

Along with other civilian vehicles, the forklift was made drivable by the player in Halo: Reach. Although forklifts travel relatively slowly, at its top speed it is capable of splattering a Sangheili General. Its speed, coupled with a lack of any defensive capabilities, makes the vehicle practically useless in gameplay. It is, however, extremely explosive, and when positioned properly, can act as an improvised explosive device within the campaign as well as Firefight. It appears in only one Firefight map: Courtyard. Sangheili players in Firefight are able to drive these as well; they cannot be hijacked, though.

History

The S-2 was designed in 2538 to replace the S-1 forklift. It was used at a number of UNSC military facilities. The S-2 continued to see use as late as November 2552.
