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. | 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.

Designed for long-range deep-space operations, M-050978 thruster packs are still some of the riskiest equipment available. They feature triple redundancy NAV systems and stabilizers. T-PACKs contain two tanks of compressed [[Triamino Hydrazine]], which, if ruptured, would cause rapid loss of control, for which there is little a person can do. | Designed for long-range deep-space operations, M-050978 thruster packs are still some of the riskiest equipment available.

T-PACKS appear to be adversely affected by radiation; if they come into proximity with unshielded radiation, they will fail. They will also fail and cause similar results if struck by weaponry. They have also caused the disappearance of two [[SPARTAN-II]] supersoldiers. One (Unit Serial: <code>#82.10923.192</code>) was worn by [[Kurt-051]] in [[2531]] on a mission in the [[Groombridge 34 System]]. It failed when it came into contact with radiation, causing him to spin out of control<ref name="GoO2"/> Another, worn by [[James (SPARTAN-II)|James]] during the [[Battle of Reach]], exploded when hit with projectiles from a [[Needler]], causing him to spin out of control and subsequently lost contact.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page ??''</ref> | T-PACKS appear to be adversely affected by radiation; if they come into proximity with unshielded radiation, they will fail.
