Following the end of the Human-Covenant War, the UNSC partnered with a number of military contractors to introduce an improved version of the venerable design. Aside from some minor aesthetic changes, the M9047 post-war pods include more reliable in-flight communications, more powerful maneuvering thrusters and limited inertial compensators, a new brake design, significantly improved structural integrity using new metal matrix composites, and thermal superconducting elements in the heatshield to protect occupants. The internal harness of post-war pods is also highly configurable, and compatible with ODST battledress and MJOLNIR-equipped Spartans.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-fighting-words '''Canon Fodder:''' ''Fighting Words'']</ref> This variant was used by the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.<ref>'''Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo''', page 42''</ref><ref>[[User talk:ScaleMaster117#Warfleet SOIEV designation|Steven Loftus clarifying the M9407 on his talk page]]</ref> | |||

An improvement on the SOEIV was the Long Range Stealth Orbital Insertion Pod which was in service with the UNSC by [[2545]]. The pods could be launched from [[slipstream space]] by a starship. The long range pods were composed of [[lead foil]], [[titanium]], and [[stealth ablative coating]], which allowed them to survive in slipspace. These pod were used to transport [[SPARTAN-III Beta Company]] to the surface of [[Pegasi Delta]] during [[Operation: TORPEDO]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''pages 14-16''</ref> | An improvement on the SOEIV was the Long Range Stealth Orbital Insertion Pod which was in service with the UNSC by [[2545]].
