The UNSC Shortsword is a bomber used to devastate enemy advances or encampments. Able to deliver heavy payloads of explosive might upon the Covenant, the Shortsword softens defensive and offensive capabilities before UNSC ground forces move in to finish the job.

This buildable atmospheric short range bomber with approximately 449 pieces, includes two Covenant Jackals with type-51 carbines and shields and one UNSC Pilot with M6D pistol.
The Halo franchise has sold an estimated total of 27 million units to date as players continue to take up arms against the forces of the sinister Covenant, and that massive consumer base is already primed for next fall’s Halo: Reach. Mega Bloks’ Halo toys rank among the most successful of related products to benefit from the game’s popularity, and these new sets should continue to build upon that excitement.
