*For some reason, in the [[Cairo Station]] armory there are food canisters.
*In the ''[[Halo 2]]'' armory, there are various movable objects, including boxes and [[MREs]].
*In Halo: CE, armories are only viewed three times. In the level Pillar of Autumn, you would only see wounded and dead Marines. In the level The Maw, the player is advised to stock up on weapons before setting off the reactors in the Engineering. It is also the place where the player will encounter deadly camouflaged Flood Combat Forms. The third is the same aforementioned armory, but is littered with empty weapons and full of [[combat forms]].
*In ''[[Halo 2]]'' the unknown [[Master Gunnery Sergeant (Armory)|Master Gunnery Sergeant]] who tested [[Master Chief's]] battle suit, was killed by two [[Elites]] in the A-01 Armoury.

An Armory, is a storage room for weapons and ammunitions and are quite common on UNSC ships and bases.

Pillar of Autumn

Ships of this class are known to have at least two armories; one near the Bridge and a larger one near Engineering[1]. However, since the Autumn was heavily modified, it is unknown if standard Halcyon Cruisers are exactly the same as it. Its armories could hold virtually any UNSC weapon: Shotguns, Assault Rifles, Pistols or Rocket Launchers. During the crucial events of the Battle of Installation 04, the Pillar of Autumn's armories were almost completely emptied of their weaponry during a raid on the crashed ship by UNSC forces. The retrieved weapons were taken by Pelicans to Alpha Base[2] and distributed to the personnel. During his mission on board the Autumn, John-117 rearms in the one next to Engineering to battle the Flood and the Covenant to collapse the ship's reactor core and destroy the ring. Among the weapons that were noticeably absent from the Autumn's armory were Sniper Rifles and pistols. However, many Shotguns, Assault Rifles, Rocket Launchers and ammunitions for these weapons were still in their racks, though some weapons were scattered everywhere with no ammunition at all in them.

Cairo Station

Large space station like these are fitted as well with at least one armory, in case of enemy boarding actions. Only one is seen onboard Cairo Station in the level with the same name, but there might be many. It contained a large amount of weapons, including Shotguns, Battle Rifles, SMGs, and ammo. Also it housed the Shield tester used to bring John's armor shields back online[3].

Crow's Nest

A 20th century base refitted for UNSC usage against Covenant invaders near Voi, Kenya. No official armory is seen inside this base, however lots of weapons are found scattered throughout the level, mainly held in racks.
