| '''Ushuaia Armory''' is a defense development and manufacturing firm that produces matériel for the [[United Nations Space Command]]. It was based on the [[Inner Colonies|Inner]] [[Human colonies|Colony]] [[world]] [[Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG202}} | | ==Known developments== |
| | In [[2535]], after an unknown development period at the firm's [[Siófok Firing Range]], Ushuaia produced the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/AA variant]].<ref name="EVG">'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'''</ref> This helmet is an improved version of the helmet worn by the [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s that was designed for and adopted by the [[UNSC Army]]'s Airborne division.<ref group="Note">According to ''Halo: Reach''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Armory, the AA helmet was developed as an improvement of the ODST helmet. According to ''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide'', the former helmet's design was influenced by Ushuaia's extensive work on the Marine Corps BDU, and it is implied that the AA helmet was not modified from the ODST helmet's design. Given the context of these apparently conflicting statements, it is possible that the AA helmet was not derived from the ODST helmet ''per se'', but was instead developed "from scratch", using the ODST helmet as inspiration; it was designed to possess similar features and functionality, resulting in a similar overall appearance.</ref> The helmet was also used by the [[SPARTAN Program|Spartans]], most notably [[Catherine-B320]]. |

|
| ==Overview==
| | Ushuaia also performed a substantial amount of work on the development of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|Battle Dress Uniform]], particularly the [[CH252 helmet]].<ref name="EVG"/> Ushuaia may not have been solely responsible for the BDU's development, as [[Misriah Armory]] also manufactures the CH252 helmet. However, it is possible that Ushuaia developed the helmet, while Misriah is responsible for the helmet's manufacture.<ref>'''[[Halo: Arms Race]]'''</ref> |

| {{Main|Human-Covenant War}}
| |
| In [[2535]], the plant responsible for manufacturing the Wolverine was destroyed by [[Insurrectionist]]s on [[Mars]].{{Ref/Note|Id=bombing|In an {{Plain|[http://uk.gamespot.com/xbox360/strategy/halowars/video/6201267/halo-wars-story-interview interview with Gamespot]}}, ''Halo Wars'' lead writer Graeme Devine claimed that the [[Mars|Martian]] factory responsible for producing the Wolverine was bombed by [[Insurrectionist]]s in [[2535]], halting further production of the vehicle. No other source has reiterated or implied this story, rendering it potentially dubious.}}

| Ushuaia Armory worked in partnership with [[Misriah Armory]] to create the [[YSS-1000 Sabre]] prototype to compete in the [[Emergency Defense Fighter]] initiative.{{Ref/Reuse|CFDigsite}} Following the end of the Human-Covenant War, they sold the production and design rights for their [[F-23 Falcata]] V/STOL jet to the [[Vestol Corporation]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFFestivities}}
