The '''thruster pack''' (Model: 050978<ref name="GoO2"/>), also known as the '''T-PACK''' for short, is a [[UNSC]]-issue form of propulsion for use by individuals on deep-space missions. The [[Mark IV MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/V variant]] supports the use of T-PACKS. They are essentially a less advanced and effective version of the Covenant [[antigravity pack]]s.
