==History==
==History==
===Human-Covenant War===
It was responsible for the manufacturing of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Prefect|Prefect armor variant]]. The Prefect variant was the product of research on [[Trevelyan]] from the discovery of a native armor system, utilized by [[Forerunner]] [[Prefect|Prefects]] late into their civilization’s history. The Watershed Division used local [[Huragok]] to reverse-engineer the original designs, grafting the abandoned armor system into baseline MJOLNIR standards for [[SPARTAN-IV]] use.<ref name="worthplaying">'''http://worthplaying.com/article/2013/7/6/news/89850/'''</ref> It was tested at [[Denegroth]], [[West Conamara]] on [[Europa]].<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/07/10/The-Halo-Bulletin-71013.aspx '''The Halo Bulletin''': ''7.10.13'']</ref> The Watershed Division also manufactured the [[CENTURION-class Mjolnir|Centurion]], [[HOPLITE-class Mjolnir|Hoplite]], [[HUNTER-class Mjolnir|Hunter]], [[COPPERHEAD-class Mjolnir|Copperhead]], [[ARGUS-class Mjolnir|Argus]], and [[HERMES-class Mjolnir|Hermes]] MJOLNIR armors.
During the [[Human-Covenant War|war]] against the [[Covenant]], Watershed Division manufactured over 2,000 units of the [[Semi-Powered Infiltration armor]] which were issued to the [[Spartan-III]] supersoldiers, with [[Ruk Ariaustin]] acting as the armor's design lead.{{Ref/Book|Id=HM|HM|Page=76-77}} Starting in [[2551]], Watershed Division has manufactured the [[M11 combat knife]] for Spartan use.{{Ref/Book|OSFM|Page=182}}
 
During the later stages of the war, Watershed were also responsible for R&D research on {{UNSCShip|Antaeus}} - a modified heavy-lift [[Dropship|dropfreighter]] commissioned to serve as the testbed for the reverse-engineering and installation of captured [[Covenant]] [[energy shielding]] generators.{{Ref/Reuse|CFDigsiteDiscourse}}

Watershed Division has provided state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities in conjunction with the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] for the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.{{Ref/Book|HWF|Page=42-43}}
