Prelude
Authorized by the head of ONI Section 3 Vice Admiral Michael Stanforth, the Skirmish over Netherop's goal was to gather concrete intelligence on the Covenant, in hopes of reverse-engineering their technology. To better prepare themselves for the operation, the twelve SPARTAN-IIs were equipped with emergency patching kits, extra thruster packs, and locator beacons - all lessons learned from their recent engagement at Chi Ceti IV. Their MJOLNIR armor had been temporarily modified, with each suit including unique features to their titanium alloy frame that better optimized each Spartan's unique skills. The same refractive coating used on prowlers was also applied to make them harder to detect. In addition, four other prowlers were on stand-by to conduct rescue operations.[1]
