===Human-Covenant War===
{{Expand-section}}
During the [[Human-Covenant War|war]] against the Covenant, the Watershed Division manufactured over 2,000 units of the [[Semi-Powered Infiltration armor]], 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 since [[2551]], the Watershed Division began to manufacture the [[Combat knife|M11 combat knife]] for Spartan use.{{Ref/Book|OSFM|Page=182}}
 
===Post-War era===
The Watershed Division was responsible for the manufacturing of the [[PREFECT-class Mjolnir|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/Site|Id=worthplaying|URL=http://worthplaying.com/article/2013/7/6/news/89850/|Site=WorthPlaying|Page='Halo 4' (X360) Champions Bundle To Add New Maps, Mode, Skins, Armor, Bonus Upgrades - Screens|D=26|M=06|Y=2022}} It was tested at [[Denegroth]], [[West Conamara]] on [[Europa]].{{Ref/Site|URL=http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/07/10/The-Halo-Bulletin-71013.aspx|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=The Halo Bulletin: 7.10.13|D=26|M=11|Y=2013}}
