The '''Asymmetrical Action Group''' was a subordinate unit of the [[Beta-5 Division]] of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].<ref>[http://xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/14276699/halo-reach/videos/halor_armory_montage_072210.html?show=hi '''IGN.com''' ''Halo: Reach Xbox 360 Video - The Armory Video'']</ref> The [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|MJOLNIR Mark V]] [[asymmetrical Action Group Operator armor|"Operator" variant]] was designed solely for this unit.


==Background==
==Role==
Late in the [[Human-Covenant War]], the Office of Naval Intelligence created the Asymmetrical Action Group as a cross-branch effort to disarm, disrupt, and dissolve [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] activities.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The group was formed around unconventional warfare veterans, though it eventually began to incorporate [[SPARTAN Program|Spartans]] into its ranks, such as [[Joshua-029]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}{{Ref/Site|Id=CF156|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-fleetcom-fiction|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Fleetcom Fiction|D=14|M=08|Y=2024}}
{{Quote|'Asymmetric warfare' can describe a conflict in which the resources of two belligerents differ in essence and in the struggle, interact and attempt to exploit each other's characteristic weaknesses. Such struggles often involve strategies and tactics of unconventional warfare, the "weaker" combatants attempting to use strategy to offset deficiencies in quantity or quality.|[[Wikipedia:Asymmetrical warfare|'''Asymmetrical warfare''' on Wikipedia]]}}


Though the AAG's non-Spartan operators wore their own standard armor, the Beta-5 Division contracted [[Chalybs Defense Solutions]] to create a variant of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] for its in-field Spartan operators. The resulting product, the [[OPERATOR-class Mjolnir|MJOLNIR Mark V Operator variant]], is designed to provide detailed on-the-fly transmissions that can circumvent most Covenant security networks.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}
