Editing Fail-safe detonation system

{{Era|FS}}
{{Ratings}}
'''Fail-Safe Detonation''' is a term that is used to explain the Self Destruct system of a WIA or KIA [[Spartan-II]]'s [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]]. Once a Spartan-II is killed or wounded fatally, the protocol will have to be enacted by either themselves or a nearby Spartan. This is done to avoid capture of the suit and/or the wearer for identification or technological study. It is unknown if the Mk. VI has this capability, since the Mk. V is said to have one.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 315</ref>

== Effectiveness ==
The tiny access panel at the back of the suit is opened to activate the protocol, it is activated by typing several digits only Spartans know. Once activated, a fifteen-second countdown timer starts. Once it hits zero, the the suit's fusion reactor overloads and burns everything in its path in a ten-meter radius with a follow-up explosion to finish anything alive.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 315</ref>

== Trivia ==
*The [[John-117|Master Chief]] is the only known Spartan to activate the Fail-Safe Detonation (on [[Grace-093]]'s suit after she was killed by a [[Brute]] in the [[Covenant]] city of [[Unyielding Hierophant]].<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 315</ref>

-The [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] is equipped with a '''fail-safe detonation system'''. If a [[SPARTAN programs|Spartan]] is killed or wounded fatally, or they are forced to shed the armor in the field, the [[self-destruct]] protocol will have to be enacted by either themselves or a nearby Spartan. This is done to avoid capture of the suit and/or the wearer for identification or technological study.{{Ref/Novel|Id=FS34|FS|Chapter=34}}
