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. They can also be linked up to weapons such as [[MA5B Assault Rifle]]s. Should the wearer fire the weapon, the pack will provide enough counter thrust to keep the wearer from spinning out of control.<ref name="GoO">'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', pages 50-51</ref> T-PACKS also contain emergency rescue lines of orange and white rope meant to rescue other people who are stranded in deep space.<ref name="GoO2">'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', pages 55-57</ref> They are essentially a less advanced and effective version of the Covenant [[Antigravity Pack]]s. | Designed for long-range deep-space operations, M-050978 thruster packs are still some of the riskiest equipment available.

Chief Mendez trained the Spartan-IIs with this type of equipment but warned them if one thing goes wrong the chance of rescue is non-existant. | ||
