Nanotubes naturally align themselves into "ropes" held together by Van der Waals forces.

Confirmations

Marines sometimes have Titanium-A armor suits, though these are increasingly becming a rare sight. Is this from Halo 1 ? if so how do we know its Titanium ? --Climax Viod 20:20, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Because the metal plates on the Marines on Halo 1 are not seen anymore. --ED(talk)(shockfront) 16:26, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

And did the The Tralfagar realy have 10 meters of Armour?

I've been trying to find that out too.

-- http://www.halopedia.org/Talk:UNSC_Trafalgar --

How long could it really take for someone with the 2010 version of the book to check to see if the book (page 168) actually does mention that the Trafalgar has 10m of armor? There's a page on this wiki that lists all the changes from the original versions of the book to the rerelease versions and this change is not mentioned. --Dustin Nugget 17:23, 22 November 2012 (EST)

Covenant Armor

Does anyone know if there is an article for what armor the Covenant used instead?Tuckerscreator' 05:20, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Speculative content this is "to more efficiently transfer the heat generated by the ship into space". Unlike the content of these words, i described the principle of operation of magnetic armor, and also added assumptions that are used everywhere in an attempt to substantiate certain properties. For example, on the page about nanotubes, an assumption about their hybridization is used.

"The nature of the bonding of a nanotube is described by applied quantum chemistry, specifically, orbital hybridization. The chemical bonding of nanotubes is composed entirely of sp2 bonds, similar to those of graphite.

Only two facts are important - radiators are built into the armor of the spacecraft and they are thermal. We cannot create an effective energy shield, but people learned how to create a magnetic force fields reflecting particles back in the 20th century. UNSC simply adapted this technology. This is not an energy shield, such as the plasma shield shown here: https://youtu.be/CroLulZIhCA

For radiators, the following is stated.
