The '''Hawk''' is a troop carrier VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft that is used by the [[Last City]]. It is typically seen making cargo deliveries at the [[Tower]], but the Hawk is fully outfitted with weapons and combat specifications.
 
==History==
Hawks are mentioned carrying Guardian reinforcements during [[The Plaguelands]] mission by [[Shiro-4]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Plaguelands]]''</ref>
 
During the mission [[A Symbol of Honor]], part of the [[Beauty in Destruction]] [[Quest]], a Hawk arrives to assist the Guardian in defending [[Bannerfall]] from a [[Fallen]] assault, providing fire support with its chin-mounted rotary machine gun.


During the [[Red War]], it was used as an attack fighter against [[Red Legion]] forces; during [[Homecoming]] [[Amanda Holliday]] used one to drop off [[The Guardian]] on [[The Immortal]]. [[Dead Orbit]] has their own fleet of heavily armed Hawks. They can be seen periodically visiting the Tower Ramparts' Hangar, in the area adjacent to the faction's designated area below the [[Future War Cult]] space.

Hawks were deployed on the [[Moon]] to repel the [[Hidden Swarm]]'s offensive in the mission [[A Mysterious Disturbance]], where they fly over the combat zones and fire at ground troops with their cannons. They later transport a [[Drake Tank]] for the Guardian to use in further breaching the [[Hive]]'s lines.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], Playstation 4, [[A Mysterious Disturbance]]''</ref>
A Hawk piloted by Holliday herself was deployed in the [[Vox Obscura]] mission, first dropping off a Drake, then providing fire support in the assault at the rebel's main base.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Risen]] - [[Mission]]: [[Vox Obscura]]''</ref>
[[Anastasia Bray]] provides air support from a Hawk during the [[Heist Battleground: Mars]] activity, while activating the "A" tower and later when climbing the scaffolding towards the Mindlab.
==Gameplay==
When Hawks appear as allies, in ''[[Destiny 2]]'', they fly in a loop over the battlefield, avoiding the fire of grounded foes. Their main weapon is an autocannon with high stopping power, that is typically fired in 2-4 round salvoes. Hawks are invulnerable to enemy fire, though foes will prefer to attack grounded targets. Still, players shouldn't rely on them to deal with more powerful threats, like [[Major]]s and [[Ultra]]s.
==Hawk-type Jumpships==
Some Hawks have also been modified to serve [[Guardian]]s as personal ships:
*[[Alpha Umi]]
*[[Egbe-01X]]
*[[Ermine TAC-717]] ([[Reef]] modification)
*[[Murmuration]]
*[[The Ruinous Flame]]
*[[Trirang Tox]]


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*During the 2013 E3 demo, the Hawk was used by Guardians to deploy outside of the [[Cosmodrome]]. This cutscene, as well as the whole sequence, has been replaced by the story mission [[A Guardian Rises]]. Hawks are never used by players in the final release of the game.<ref>'''[[E3 2013 Destiny Gameplay Demo]]'''</ref>

*The Hawk's design is likely inspired by the real-life Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey aircraft.
*In the [[Shadowkeep]] Vidoc, Hawks are seen flying over the moon fighting Hive alongside Guardians. They also appear in the final version of the expansion's first mission, [[A Mysterious Disturbance]].
*The Bungie Rewards Hawk gunship replica comes with a postcard that details a Hawk's length, width and height.
*During the mission [[A Symbol of Honor]], part of the [[Beauty in Destruction]] [[Quest]], a Hawk arrives to assist the Guardian in defending [[Bannerfall]] from a [[Fallen]] assault, providing fire support with its chin-mounted rotary machine gun.
