The '''Open Frame 92/Extra-Vehicular Activity'''<ref name="booster"/>, or '''booster frame''', is an experimental [[starfighter]] in service with the [[UNSC Navy]], developed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] as a prototype. They were specifically assigned for [[extra-vehicular activity]] and special operations roles, dropped from hooks within the hangars of specialized UNSC ships. The ship itself has no sealed cockpit, so a [[Vacuum suit|pressurized suit]] must be worn in order to operate the vehicle.<ref>'''Halo Waypoint''', ''Gauss Technology article''</ref><ref name="booster"/>

==Design and development==
===Design details===
The booster frame is a heavily-armed, open-frame incursive vehicle specifically intended for deep-space use and close-quarters environments. Its weapon loadout is designed primarily for "Disrupt/Overwhelm/Adapt" - a technique employed to deal with the twin problems of field-effect [[energy shielding]] and armor plating. When used in concert, the combination of [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]], explosive and projectile force can make surgical incisions in large-scale, otherwise impenetrable defenses.

It was specifically engineered for use by [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II]] units and is only usefully operable in zero-/low-G and zero-/low-atmosphere environments. It has no aerodynamic properties beyond its basic mass and thrust quotient. Booster Frames are deployed directly into vacuum through a specialized hydraulic winch system which extends from a ventral bay on a select number of modified UNSC warships and undisclosed ONI special service vehicles. The booster frame is also protected, at least partially, by energy shields.<ref name="booster"/>

===Weapons===
The Booster Frame is extremely heavily armed, leading to its classification as ammunition rather than a vehicle. In addition to the weaponry, the Booster Frame is equipped with chaff launchers to disrupt [[Plasma turret|plasma torpedoes]]. Scanning devices can also be launched from the Booster Frames onto starship hulls, to scan for possible signal transmitters.

*1 '''[[M92 Principle Gauss Cannon]]''' - a powerful [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] that runs along the length of the booster frame. As a drawback, it requires a long time to recharge.<ref name="booster"/>

*12 '''[[MITV Pod]]s''' - contained in the booster frame's "wings". These pods contain numerous small missiles, capable of inflicting heavy damage upon Covenant shields and starship hulls alike.<ref name="booster"/>

*2 '''[[80mm ball-mounted rotary cannon]]s''' - mounted on the undersides of the booster frame's "wings".<ref name="booster"/>

*1 '''[[M41 ELAAGat]]''' - Extended Light Anti-Aircraft Gun firing gas-jacketed armor piercing [[depleted uranium]] rounds. Contained within the rear part of the frame, this turret is capable of being operated by another soldier who can stand at the back and provide covering fire for the pilot. The turret is a variation of the [[M41 Vulcan Light Anti-Aircraft Gun]], designed to be operable in vacuum. It fires shells with pressurized atmospheric contents to ensure an explosive percussion in a vacuum or other challenging environment.<ref name="booster"/>

===Development history===
OF92/EVA was developed by the Office of Naval Intelligence in conjunction with [[UNSC Special Forces|Naval Special Operations]] and the [[University of Songnam]]. As evidenced by its open cockpit design, it was developed alongside the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR project]] and in tandem with the research done on EVA, or [[extra-vehicular activity]] technology following the [[Summa Deep Space Incident]]. As with many ONI projects, both the analysis and eventual matériel response were heavily classified. Because their overall cost clashes with their expendable nature, ONI and the UNSC have no plans for widespread application or production. In fact, it is technically classified by the Naval shipping and logistics organization as Aircraft Ammunition rather than Aircraft.<ref name="booster"/>

There are only two officially recorded missions where the Booster Frame's use has been logged.<ref name="booster"/> Five were used by [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II supersoldiers]] during [[Operation: WARM BLANKET]], an assault on [[Third Fleet of Glorious Consequence|a Covenant fleet]], in an attempt to board a ship and recover the captured [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]. During the mission, the Booster Frame showed to perform extremely well against Covenant [[Type-31 Seraph]]s.<ref>'''Halo Legends''' - ''The Package''</ref>
