The Black Mesa truck is a vehicle used by the Black Mesa Research Facility Transport Division. Used to transport Xen crystals, it is only seen in Half-Life: Decay’s bonus chapter Xen Attacks, in the underground parking lot located under Sector E's Ordinance Storage Facility.
Overview[edit]
The truck is apparently an armored truck, as it is to transport goods that require special care (that includes Xen crystals or other special items such as scientific devices or hazardous materials). Its windshield is protected by metal bars, preventing anything from getting in if the windshield is destroyed. The vehicle's storage area is also armored. The crate containing the crystals has "Danger" written on it.
A rare sight in the Black Mesa Research Facility, it is presumably used to carry hazardous or classified materials throughout the facility. One of these shipments was transporting a Xen crystal sample through the Ordinance Storage Facility's parking area, during the Black Mesa Incident. It was intercepted by Hazardous Environment Combat Unit troops, who then set up a defense around the immediate area (most likely to keep the crystal sample safe before it was transported out). However, the Vortigaunts X-8973 and R-4913, sent by the Nihilanth, managed to break through the military's defenses, reached the transport truck, and retrieved the crystal.
