The chest has a componential shield redistributor cartridge mounted onto the collar for easy modification. The reactor pack has a pack-mounted release grip to govern energy re-appropriation.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}
==Production notes==

===Development history===
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]]. It is designed to facilitate the "subversion, repair and reconstitution" of a wide range of technology, including [[Covenant]] and [[Forerunner]].{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}{{Ref/Reuse|H4}}{{Ref/Site|Id=h4guide|URL=http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/fdda7fb8-d9f7-4cbd-b14e-f0db27b9e007/engineer|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo 4 Interactive Guide - Armor Types: Engineer|D=24|M=04|Y=2013|LocalArchive=Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Armor Types}}
 
This armor also serves as a testbed for numerous netwar-specific subsystems that target Covenant and Forerunner battlenets, security command protocols, and hardware interlocks.{{Ref/Game|H5G|Armor customization (Halo 5: Guardians)|Spartan Appearance Customization|Detail=Engineer - Body Description|Quote=ENGINEER-class armor serves as a testbed for numerous netwar-specific subsystems that target Covenant and Forerunner battlenets, security command protocols, and hardware interlocks.}}
 
===Usage===
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/Reuse|H4EVG}}
