Late into the Human-Covenant War, Covenant assets in the field were instrumental to this variants early designs. Manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]], it was tested at [[Lethbridge Combat Fields]], and was first deployed during the expedition of the volatile moon of [[Thales]].

The Engineer variant was used on Thales to halt the criminal activity in the colony's docking complexes. It was also used during Spartan-IV operations on [[Requiem]]. It is considered the rarest combat armor system in UNSC service due to the fact that there are only a handful in operation at any given time. Despite its purpose, Engineer was impressive in combat.<ref name="H4EVG"/> | The Engineer variant was used on Thales to halt the criminal activity in the colony's docking complexes.
