The Drop Shield is a sophisticated United Nations Space Command personal defense device, and essentially a more advanced version of the Bubble Shield employed by the ONI's Beta-5 strike teams.[1]
Description
When activated, the Drop Shield generates a blue-tinted spherical protective energy shield, and also provides a regenerative effect to those within it. Curiously, the regeneration is a side effect not fully understood by the UNSC, and was still under investigation by 2552. Unlike the Bubble Shield, the Drop Shield will expire if it takes too much damage.[1] The shield is enabled by a small device attached to the user's back. Once activated, the shield stays in place and seems to operate without a visible emitter of any kind. Like the Bubble Shield, the Drop Shield resembles a geodesic dome, made of tessellating hexagons.
