Among his modifications included the removal of the gun shield, replaced with a heat shroud around the barrel, and the addition of yellow paint highlights around the weapon alongside more ergonomic handle placement.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''' - ''In-game model''</ref> This weapon proved the basis of a [[War Games]] weapon, modified to fire explosive rounds and grant the wielder in the simulation increased movement speed and damage resistance. This War Games variant retained the visual look of the original weapon wielded by Jorge, with the addition of the "S-052" tag and [[NOBLE Team]] emblem. The magazine, however, now has been replaced with a red high capacity magazine.<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''' - ''In-game model''</ref> | ||

During the opening stages of the fall, he employed the weapon during a mission to investigate the [[Visegrád Relay]]<ref>'''Halo: Reach''' - ''campaign level [[Winter Contingency (level)|Winter Contingency]]''</ref> and later the defense of [[SWORD Base]].<ref>'''Halo: Reach''' - ''campaign level [[ONI: Sword Base]]''</ref> Jorge would then employ the weapon during the [[Battle at Szurdok Ridge]], using it to hold off [[Covenant]] forces so that [[SPARTAN-B312]] could take [[Spire One]] offline.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''' - ''campaign level [[Tip of the Spear]]''</ref> The weapon's last actions would come in [[Operation: UPPER CUT]], with Jorge using the weapon inside the captured [[SDV-class heavy corvette]] ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'' to hold off Covenant forces. Following damage taken to the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|slipspace drive]] needed for the operation, Jorge would stay behind on the Corvette to manually detonate the engine-turned-bomb and allow B312 to escape. In the ensuing destruction of the [[CSO-class supercarrier]] ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'', Etilka was likely destroyed.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''' - ''campaign level [[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]''</ref> | ||
By [[2558]], Etilka - alongside many other pieces of equipment employed by NOBLE Team - was the basis of weaponry and equipment being fielded in the War Games simulations used for [[SPARTAN-IV]] training. | By [[2558]], Etilka - alongside many other pieces of equipment employed by NOBLE Team - was the basis of weaponry and equipment being fielded in the War Games simulations used for [[SPARTAN-IV]] training.<ref name="CF"/> | ||
