Halo 3 medal hints at new aircraft

The linguistic analysts at sister site Xbox 360 Fanboy want to know your feelings over the word "aircraft." Take the above medal, earned on Valhalla during a match of Halo 3 (beta, of course).

Instead of earning the Skyjacker! medal for boarding a Banshee, currently the only airborne vehicle we have used in the Halo series (space carriers notwithstanding), the folks at Bungie have decided to give you a gold star for boarding an "aircraft," implying that multiple aircrafts will be available. Why else would they give a nondescriptive explanation for the award? O, diction be damned!

The other possibility is that the description is temporary, just like the now-renamed Cheneymania. Bungie adding another aircraft wouldn't be surprising, but so far nothing has been confirmed or sighted.
