When New Mombasa was [[Battle of Mombasa|attacked]] by the [[Covenant]] during the [[Battle of Earth]], they assisted the [[UNSC]] in fending off the invasion force. The [[NMPD Headquarters]] was located at the [[Tanaga|Tanaga district]] of New Mombasa. At the time of the Covenant invasion they were under the command of Commissioner [[Kinsler]], a highly corrupt official who used them as his private army. While some officers were loyal to Kinsler, there were also many officers who resented him.<ref name="sadie">'''Halo 3: ODST''', ''[[Sadie's Story]]''</ref>

Notable additions included a high speed camera on the bow of the dropship, and a rescue cable at the rear of the troop bay.
