I don't think it looks like those. Someone else pointed it out before, but the engine placement is inverted and looks more like the Covenant capitol ship engine placement.

maybe the reason for it being inverted is because its a reflection?

I mean upside down, the Forerunner ships have one on top and two on the bottom, the visor has two on top, one on the bottom. A mirror image would reflect horizontally, not vertically.

Yup, just checked the cutscene "One Size Fits All" that shows the Arbiter's ship flying towards High Charity and you see an identical engine layout. Sorry guys.

Not to mention, as someone said earlier, the lights match up to the structure and shape of a lit Pelican cockpit, when you are facing it head-on.

No. A pelican ain't gonna fly into MC head-on. I don't care who the pilot is.

Have you noticed how far away it could be?

And, pelicans, like helicopters fly with their noses pointed slightly downwards but yet still fly in a straight line forwards (towards the horizon)

It could be flying over him, like in the Halo Wars trailer, only flying the other way.

Or yes, it could even be landing - in which case the pilot would need all the light he could use.

So before you start making jokes about speculation, think carefully about the possibilities behind that speculation.

Stop.Think.Post.
