Molybdenum has the sixth-highest melting point of any element, and for this reason is commonly used by the [[UNSC]] in high-strength alloys. One example is prior to [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE]], when the [[Spartan-II]]s of [[Blue Team]] used carbon-molybdenum I-beams to reinforce the hull of a captured [[Spirit]] dropship.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', | |||
