In the late stages of the Human-Covenant War, or the earliest years of the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war]] era, Omega Team was involved in the testing of numerous "[[Breach attachments|Breach]]" development iterations on the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|MJOLNIR Mark VI]] platform.

Decades after Red Team's last encounter with them, Commander Jerome-092 discerned that Omega Team had survived the war based on UNSC records recovered from the [[Henry Lamb Research Outpost]].{{Ref/Reuse|Know-Scope}} In [[2560]], the team was deployed to Arcadia once again, this time with goal of observing a deal between [[Adam Andrews]]—the CEO of [[Optican]]—and [[Kig-Yar]] working for [[Nor Fel]]. After a successful handoff between the two parties amid [[Forerunner]] [[Arcadia Forerunner ruins|ruins]], August eliminated a trio of Kig-Yar with her [[M99A2S3 Stanchion]], the signal for Robert-025 and Leon-011 to move. While Leon rushed for the Kig-Yar's [[Phantom]], Robert positioned himself to neutralize any escapees from the craft with his [[machine gun]] turret. Once Leon confirmed the dropship was clear, Robert got to work securing the Kig-Yar's would-be prize: the [[focus cannon]] of a [[Type-29 Scarab]]. After performing some scans of the weapon, Robert secured it for transport as Leon confirmed that the aliens had delivered a shipment of [[rumbledrug]]s to Andrews. With their objective complete, Omega Team left the area.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Hippo|Halo: Hippocratica}} | |||
