The 'Hog
The first prototype Warthog was designed by AMG Transport Dynamics in 2319. Simply referred to the Z-12, this prototype vehicle quickly made a name for itselft due to AMG-s well-crafted advertising campaign and exceptional engineering team which showcased its impressive feature set and unparalleled functionality in the unpopulated outlands of both Luna and Mars. It was lauded as the vehicle that could "go anywhere and do anything." During the first eight months of the prototype's existence, AMG Transport Dynamics received over three dozen exclusivity contracts, the largest and most lucrative being with the Colonial Military Authority (CMA).

In 2321 the Warthog was formally type-classified as the M12 Force Application Vehicle (FAV), with final production models adding a modular turret mount and additional armored body panels. By 2329, Warthog variants had been adapted to meet nearly all land-based transportation needs for the CMA. The United Nations Space Command (UNSC) adopted the M12 as their standard ground utility vehicle in 2350.

Modern Warthogs have strong family ressemblance to the 24th century production models but are better adapted to the realities of frontier maintenance and lack of transportation infrastructure. Military-surplus Warthogs are ubiquitous in the colonies, which proved to be an important strategic advantage in the early years of the Covenant War.
