I see people do this a lot with weapons, but I have barely seen any about vehicles, feel free to add your own.
Salamander- A warthog with a flamethrower turret.
**Description-**Secret UNSC vehicle in development for destroying flood, usually used in the hands of Flood extermination teams on halo fragments.
UNSC Hawk: Human airship equipped with 50 caliber machine gun and a single rocket launcher. The machine gun would function like that of the hornet in Halo: The Master Chief Collection. The rocket launcher would fire a single rocket (like that of the normal rocket launcher) and would have the same reload time as the hornet for its rockets. The rockets would also be heat seeking like that of the Halo 2 rocket launcher. The vehicle would maneuver like a banshee. It would essentially be the human counterpart of the banshee.
Covenant Haunter: Would fire plasma like the banshee and ghost at the same rate as the banshee. Would be able to fire two fuel rod shots simultaneously at the same rate as the UNSC hornet. Would serve as the Covenant counterpart to the hornet.
A.P.C. (Armored Personnel Carrier)
A bulky armored vehicle that can hold up to 7 passengers (including the driver and gunner). It doesn’t really have any offensive capabilities, its only weapon being a heavy machinegun turret mounted on the back (to hold off pursuers), so it isn’t really a combat oriented vehicle. However, it is extremely durable (around the strength of a Scorpion), with speed close to that of a warthog, making it the perfect vehicle for rushing out and delivering your troops into battle, so you can ambush and swarm your enemy with sheer numbers. This would be a good vehicle if they decided to increase the match size for BTB (12v12, 16v16, 24v24, 32v32), or if they included some other kind of large-scale game mode.
Hydra
A medium-size UNSC sea vehicle. It would feature a gunner position on each side, both featuring the standard machinegun turret (maybe there could be a Rocket or Gauss variant as well). It would be very fast, like the speed of a boosting Ghost, and like the Ghost it would be great for rapid assaults, as well as for traveling from place to place. I wouldn’t have super tough armor though, so while it would be super fast and fairly powerful, it wouldn’t be too hard to destroy, functioning like a glass cannon of sorts. It would also have two passenger seats on the back, although they wouldn’t be able to use their weapons for balance reasons (similar to the passenger falcon from Reach).
.
Motorcycle
A variant of the Mongoose, but faster and with motorcycle handling/physics. Maybe with a front-mounted machinegun. Hey, here’s another idea, replace the gungoose with this. It would be wayyyy more badastronaut.

The Phantom already exists…
UNSC Cerberus:A prototype movable base the size of two warthogs side by side. Carries three high caliber turret. Moves like a scorpion tank. Also has the ability to carry unarmed infantry (spartans). Is commonly used to take out riots and low infantry forces( grunts, jackals,). Also used to establish temporary settlements for UNSC forces.
UNSC Ghoul: From reverse-engineering Covenant and Forerunner technology, the UNSC has made its first anti-gravity vehicle. Single pilot, no passengers, handles like a Mongoose but floats like a Ghost and floats slightly higher by default like the Halo: CE Ghost and doesn’t flip easily because of self balance correcting systems. Has a chaingun on the right, similar damage and accuracy to regular UNSC turrets, and a grenade launcher on the left that operates just like Reach’s grenade launcher. No boost systems, but using the bumpers can make it briefly rise and lower to go over and under small and low obstacles, and it’s thin enough to go into narrow corridors like the mongoose can.
The Penetrator - A mongoose with a massive drill attached to the front
In all seriousness (hope thats spelt right) I was thinking of a UNSC bike similar to Batmans one in The Dark Night. But specifically to the way it moves like from the way Batman came out of the alley sideways.

You mean the UNSC Siege Bike
UNSC Wasp: Like a hornet, but without rockets and more agile.
UNSC Barracuda: Transport Vehicle meant for travel in the water. It’s appearance looks like a warthog meant for the sea. Alone it is a standard vehicle, but when united with other Barracuda’s they are unstoppable as multiple units.
UNSC Cassowary: A very well armed land vehicle. It’s appearance looks like a LAV in real life. It needs no help because it is what levels the playing field.

Nice ideas. +1
Eagle- Heavily armed slow Arial vehicle has one large tank cannon mounted to the front cockpit os below this has four VTOL thrusters like pelicans has one chin mounted spartan laser similar to the Hawks also has two side mounted guns similar to the krestles if your familure 2 pilots 4 gunners 6 extra personal can be dropped to ground if needed
Chupathingy- AKA; Puma- Standard warthog, equipped with a high velocity Grif Cannon, in which, makes either a Grif-sized hole in the outer wall, or paints it a very disgusting color. Making it useful for attacks on highly defended areas

LOVE IT!!!
This is an old thread, but I’ll contribute.
Booster Frames- as seen in Halo: Legends and Halo: Escalation. Could work as the UNSC equivalent to the banshee with similar speed but less weapons. A passenger can garrison the turret on the back. Leaves the pilot and the passenger fully exposed but has an energy shield.
UNSC Shortsword mk2
Space bomber with emp bombs to disable covenant capital ship shields and armor piercing high explosive bombs for the killing blow
Really good ideas guys!
I love that Salamander
My vehicle ideas:
UNSC Turtle
This vehicle will move slightly slower than the Scorpion (tank) but it will withstand about 2x more damage than it (the Scorpion). It has no offensive capabilities; therefore, it’s purpose is to transport troops onto the battlefield. It can carry 1 driver and 7 passengers. It is slightly shorter than the Scorpion but slightly longer. The width of both vehicles are about the same.
UNSC Bee
This is an aircraft that will move like the banshee. It moves at about the same speed as a Banshee (between the speed of it boosting and not boosting) and it is about the same size. It can only carry 1 pilot (no passengers) and it has two turbofan engines mounted on gimbals at the ends of it like the Hornet but the Bee’s engines/wings start towards the front of the vehicle and they go back and slightly angle outwards. At the back of the vehicle, it has a short “tail” that curves down and towards the front of the vehicle with a gauss cannon attached to it. It doesn’t have any maneuver abilities like the Banshee (no barrel-rolling, etc.) and it can’t boost but it is about 2x more durable than the Banshee.
