With the concurrent project underway, Ackerson focused all of his efforts on political maneuvers rather than battlefield tactics, eventually granting him a seat on the [[UNSC Security Council]] and the Special Weapons Development program within [[UNSC High Command]]. He headed several high-profile projects within the Office of Naval Intelligence. Among many other programs, he was evidently involved in the development of the [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark I ADS|HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL]] exoskeleton series.<ref>'''Halo: Fall of Reach - Invasion''', ''Issue 2''</ref> Because his projects often competed with [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] | With the concurrent project underway, Ackerson focused all of his efforts on political maneuvers rather than battlefield tactics, eventually granting him a seat on the [[UNSC Security Council]] and the Special Weapons Development program within [[UNSC High Command]].

On [[2552#August|August 29, 2552]], during a field test involving the pairing of [[John-117]]'s [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V MJOLNIR armor]] with [[Cortana]], Ackerson tried to kill the Spartan: he authorized the use of [[Lotus anti-tank mine]]s, a squad of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, three 30mm chain guns, and even an air strike by a [[SkyHawk]] fighter against the Spartan. Ackerson's intent was to either disgrace the SPARTAN-IIs and Dr. Halsey, and, if possible, to kill the most well-known Spartan alive. Nevertheless, John succeeded and Cortana sought revenge by wreaking havoc in Ackerson's private files; she hacked into Ackerson's [[personal computer]] and sent a note requesting reassignment to front line service, as well as sending a large amount of money from his account to a brothel on [[Gilgamesh]] and then sending the bill to his home, where his wife would find it.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''pages 266-268''</ref> However, he managed to exonerate himself. | On [[2552#August|August 29, 2552]], during a field test involving the pairing of [[John-117]]'s [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V MJOLNIR armor]] with [[Cortana]], Ackerson tried to kill the Spartan: he authorized the use of [[Lotus anti-tank mine]]s, a squad of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, three 30mm chain guns, and even an air strike by a [[SkyHawk]] fighter against the Spartan.
