An '''Armory''' is a military depot used for the storage of weapons and ammunition and are quite common on [[UNSC]] ships and bases.

==Appearances==
===Pillar of Autumn===
{{main|UNSC Pillar of Autumn}}
[[Halcyon-class Cruiser]]s are known to have at least two armories; one near the [[Bridge]] and a larger one near [[Engineering]]<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', level ''[[The Maw (Level)|The Maw]]''</ref>. However, since the Autumn was heavily modified, it is unknown if standard Halcyon Cruisers are exactly the same as it.

Among the weapons that were noticeably absent from the ''Autumn'''s armory were [[Sniper Rifle]]s and [[M6D|pistols]]. Another kind of weapon that didn't appear there at all were Frag Grenades. However, many [[Shotgun]]s, [[MA5B|Assault Rifles]], [[Rocket Launcher]]s and ammunition for these weapons were still in their racks, though some weapons were scattered everywhere with no ammunition in them at all.

===Cairo Station===
{{main|Cairo Station}}
Large orbital space station like these are fitted as well with at least one armory, in case of enemy boarding actions. Only one is seen onboard [[Cairo Station]] in the [[Cairo Station (Level)|level with the same name]]. It contained a large amount of weapons, including [[Shotgun]]s, [[Battle Rifle]]s, [[SMG]]s, and ammo. It also housed the [[MJOLNIR Shield Tester|Shield tester]] used to bring [[MJOLNIR|John's armor]] [[shield]]s back online<ref>'''[[Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide]]''', page 63</ref>.

===Crow's Nest===
{{main|Crow's Nest (Base)}}
A 20th century [[Crow's Nest (Base)|base]] refitted for [[UNSC]] usage against [[Covenant]] invaders near [[Voi]], [[Kenya]]. No official armory is seen inside this base, however lots of weapons are found scattered throughout [[Crow's Nest (Level)|the level]], mainly held in racks.

==Trivia==
*Armories can hold many different UNSC weapons, such as [[Shotguns]] or [[Assault Rifles]]. They serve as good weapon and ammunition storage in time of need.
*During the crucial events of the [[Battle of Installation 04]], the Pillar of Autumn's armories were almost completely emptied of their weaponry during a raid on the crashed ship by UNSC forces. The retrieved weapons were taken by [[Pelican]]s to [[Alpha Base]] and distributed to the personnel. During his [[The Maw|mission]] on board the ''Autumn'', [[John-117]] rearms in the one next to Engineering to battle the [[Flood]] and the [[Covenant]] to collapse the ship's reactor core and destroy the ring.

*In the new map [[Overlook|http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Overlook]], a shelf containing ammunition is in the same room as one of the generators. This may have been inspired by the Armory.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page ''??''</ref>
