The OSTEO combat engineering suit, also known as the HAZMAT armor, is an armor system employed by unaugmented personnel as well as Spartan Operations personnel for HAZMAT operations.[3]

Overview

Design details

The HAZMAT armor platform was designed to be used by both Spartans and unaugmented personnel in all manner of dangerous conditions. The armor incorporates an array of contingency systems focused on surviving extended operations in extraordinarily harsh working and combat environments.[3].

Usage

HAZMAT armor is for personnel who are sent on missions deep into dying Forerunner facilities, for hunters operating in and around poisoned water and air, search teams exploring sites scarred by chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear weapons used in the Human-Covenant War, as well as even more insidious threats.[3] It is also used by Spartan combat engineers working in demolition and hazmat missions, in addition to carrying out specialist tasks which require super-human reactions, strength, and situational awareness.[2]

Variants
