| |
| | |
| An '''Armory''' is a military depot used for the storage of weapons and ammunition and are quite common on [[UNSC]] ships and bases.

| ==Appearances==
| |
| ===Pillar of Autumn===
| |
| {{main|UNSC Pillar of Autumn}}
| |
| [[Halcyon-class Cruiser]]s are known to have at least two armories; one near the [[Bridge]] and a larger one near [[Engineering]]<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', level ''[[The Maw (Level)|The Maw]]''</ref>. However, since the Autumn was heavily modified, it is unknown if standard Halcyon Cruisers are exactly the same as it.
| |
| | |
| Among the weapons that were noticeably absent from the ''Autumn'''s armory were [[Sniper Rifle]]s and [[M6D|pistols]]. Another kind of weapon that didn't appear there at all were Frag Grenades. However, many [[Shotgun]]s, [[MA5B|Assault Rifles]], [[Rocket Launcher]]s and ammunition for these weapons were still in their racks, though some weapons were scattered everywhere with no ammunition in them at all.

| | |
| ===Cairo Station===
| |
| {{main|Cairo Station}}
| |
| Large orbital 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 [[Cairo Station (Level)|level with the same name]]. It contained a large amount of weapons, including [[Shotgun]]s, [[Battle Rifle]]s, [[SMG]]s, and ammo. It also housed the [[MJOLNIR Shield Tester|Shield tester]] used to bring [[MJOLNIR|John's armor]] [[shield]]s back online<ref>'''[[Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide]]''', page 63</ref>.

| | |
| ===Crow's Nest===
| |
| {{main|Crow's Nest (Base)}}
| |
| A 20th century [[Crow's Nest (Base)|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 [[Crow's Nest (Level)|the level]], mainly held in racks.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Armories can hold many different UNSC weapons, such as [[Shotguns]] or [[Assault Rifles]]. They serve as good weapon and ammunition storage in time of need.
| |
| *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 [[Pelican]]s to [[Alpha Base]] and distributed to the personnel. During his [[The Maw|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.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page ''??''</ref>
