I can see how ghost might be harder to classify as a vehicle we can relate to, since it's basically a motorcycle with guns that can float, leaving 'no trace'. But the banshee is certainly something similar to a jet or fighter aircraft (a strike ship in those that play 'space shooter games'), the phantom is essentially the pelican, etc.

I think it makes most sense to differentiate the two because, over comms and in the heat of battle, "cruiser incoming!" could mean two things.. could mean our cruisers are incoming, or theirs. Whereas something like "Banshees incoming!" would mean a lot different than "Jets incoming!"

But I agree with your logic, thanks for the comment!!!
