Crashed Vertibird

The  is the wrecking of a vertibird that met a miserable end.

Layout
A VB-02 Vertibird crashed in a crater east of the Old Nuclear Test Site, surrounded by hardened sentry bots and/or Mister Gutsy model enemies. The wreckage houses a few skeletons and the Tesla-Beaton prototype. This suggests that the Vertibird, the skeletons, and weapon were of the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel; on their way to aid their now-routed West Coast brethren.

The Vertibird has the letters NV on the tail which suggests that it might be from the base at Navaro. It also has an ID Number on it reading "VEM1052193".

Second Opinion:

Vertibirds are Enclave... so is base Navaro according to the recording one ED-E. Also if you remember in Fallout 3 Tesla equipment was also Enclave, like Tesla Armour, so it would only be logical for the Tesla-Beaton Prototype to be Enclave and not Brotherhood of Steel.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Notable loot

 * The Tesla-Beaton prototype is found at the rear of the crashed vertibird.

Behind the Scenes
This location, along with the hostile robots you encounter upon discovering the location, is a homage to the crashed vertibird in Klamath Canyon in Fallout 2.
