*[[Paris IV]] is [[Siege of Paris IV|attacked]]. According to ONI documentation, [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]] uses a box of plasma grenades to buy time for his Marines to evacuate, receiving a twelve-hundred-rad cumulative dose of radiation and later being diagnosed with [[Boren's Syndrome]], which in the future will save his life from [[Flood]] infection on [[Installation 04]] and onward.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'''</ref> However, the Borens' Syndrome story involving Johnson is a hoax, a fabrication by ONI to cover his participation in the much earlier [[ORION Project]].<ref>[[Halo Graphic Novel, Page 122|'''Halo Graphic Novel''', ''page 122'']]</ref>
*The 2549 edition of the [[Hog]] is released either this year or late in 2548.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=896 '''Bungie.net''': ''AMG Civilian Hog Review'']</ref>
*The [[Covenant]] recall their standard {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}} model to update its design, fitting a [[Pek-pattern plasma cannon|Type-52 DESW]] on a ring mount.
*Sometime during this year, the [[SPARTAN-II program]] is announced to the public,<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 230'' (2001)</ref> and any Spartan who dies is to be listed as either [[Missing In Action]] or [[Wounded in Action]], to give the illusion that Spartans never die in accordance with [[ONI Directive 930]].<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 249'' (2003)</ref> Because the [[unidentified engineer]] took on [[Project MAGNES]] with the hope that it could be used by John-117, it is likely that the SPARTAN-II program's public unveiling occoured prior to August 26.{{Ref/Reuse|ProjectMagnes}}
*Sometime prior to August 26, a civilian engineer submits schematics to the UNSC as part of [[Project MAGNES]], illustrating a concept for a device allowing for the rapid mass manipulation of heavy objects. The UNSC rejects the proposal, leading to the engineer deciding to build a prototype of the [[Grappleshot]] herself.{{Ref/Reuse|ProjectMagnes}}
*The [[Strident-class heavy frigate]] is introduced.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=123}}
*Manufactured by the [[Watershed Division]], the {{Class|Winter|prowler}} enters service.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22P129|Enc22|Page=129}}
