The '''Hawk''' is a troop carrier VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft that is used by the [[Last City]].
 
==Overview==
It is typically seen making cargo deliveries at the [[Tower]]. 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>
