The [[UNSC]] utilizes | The [[UNSC]] utilizes nanotechnology for several purposes. [[Nanoreagent hydrocarbots]] are a suspension of nanomachines that convert carbon-heavy matter into usable fuel for the UNSC's internal combustion power plants, including the hydrogen-injected internal combustion engines used by the [[M12 Force Application Vehicle]] and the [[M274 Ultra-Light All-Terrain Vehicle]]. | ||
Nanomachines are also used in conjunction with MJOLNIR armor systems. As of [[2552]], the UNSC had developed nanotechnology designed to perform repairs on MJOLNIR armor while its Spartan occupant rested in cryo-sleep. Given enough time and in the hands of a capable "smart" [[AI]], these nanomachines were capable of completely overhauling a suit. The [[Charon-class light frigate]] ''[[Forward Unto Dawn]]'' carried a supply of nanomachines for this purpose, which the AI Cortana used to upgrade and re-design [[John-117]]'s MJOLNIR Mk. VI while the ''Dawn'' drifted through space for four years. A similar form of nanotechnology was incorporated into the MJOLNIR Mk. VII, allowing the suit to repair and upgrade itself autonomously during cryo-sleep. This feature was presumably carried over to the MJOLNIR [GEN2]. | |||
