Falcon Versus-es the Mantis in Halo Xbox One… that would be hectic…
The rocket pod on the Mantis would probably obliterate a standard Falcon. Seeing a Mantis fight the grenade launcher variant would interesting though.
Anyways a definite yes to bringing the Falcon back.
Bring back all the vehicles! Except maybe the Prowler or Spectre, they’re just too similar gameplay wise.
I would love to be able to have squadron of Aircraft in Campaign or even Multiplayer filled with Falcons and Hornets (Hawks and Vultures for campaign, both would be overpowered for multiplayer).

Fixed.
Yes they should bring back the Falcon(favorite vehicle ever!!!)
343, just add the pelican and I’m satisfied

With a good driver and even a single competent gunner, the Mantis wouldn’t stand a chance against the Falcon w/ Grenade turrets. Do you guys even remember what it was like? That would be like Forklift vs Scarab levels of unfair.

Hahaha, overpowered is an understatement. The Hawk as a flying equivalent to the Gauss hog?
I’d love to have a level on H5 including a big Hawk & Vulture convoy, kind of similar to the H3 campaign level on the Ark with the Hornets & Pelicans. I loved playing that segment.
Throw in…
… an even sweeter door gunner experience
… AA countermeasures to spice up combat
… and a passenger seat for the flag/bomb carrier
And you got yourself a deal!
If the Mantis or Rockets in general come back with a heat-seeking ability, then I really think the countermeasures could be a fantastic addition to vehicular combat.

I’d rather have the Missile Pod come back and break up that role, making things simpler. Maybe they can make the MGT able to fire precisely again, and buff the damage so that it doesn’t feel like it kills slower than the SMGs.
Maybe the Missile Pod could fall off a vehicle when it gets destroyed too, same thing with the Warthog’s turret.
Hornet dude
> Hornet dude
The Hornet was fun and all, but in the end it was too similar to the Banshee and it had some serious flaws in design. Riding in a passenger seat in the Hornet in multiplayer was a combination between a death trap and being inside of a straight jacket. You had very little freedom of view and you had very little cover if you made the unfortunate mistake of hitching a ride. Also, the Hornet breaks the UNSC trend of giving the passengers the firepower, which is what separates UNSC vehicles from Covenant vehicles.
It would be quite nice to see a covanent version of a falcon

I think the Banshee is enough, but if I were to choose a “Falcon Counterpart”, it’d probably be the Vampire.
Falcon or hornet needs to be in halo 5 “NEEDS”
Bring back all the Halo vehicles then put some type of offensive capacity on the mongoose. A few new types of tanks, planes and other vehicles couldn’t hurt in addition to the standard vehicles.

I would agree to this. Though if given the choice I would prefer the Hornet but the absence of either really bummed me out on Halo 4. I hope given the new hardware we will see some truly epic BTB games.
What I never liked about the falcon or hornet is that it has too many disadvantages:
- rockets can lock on to it
- odd shooting angles
- easy target for a Splaser
- can’t transport objectives
However, this is just an opinion. But with some upgrades, the falcon/hornet/flying ice cream truck could turn into a great flying vehicle. Examples:

Halo 4: Falcon Confirmed! 
… Oh… Wait…
But seriously, there’s a lack of air vehicles all round, especially UNSC.
