Background

The only known use of the M149 was during the Battle of Algolis by a marine with the call sign "Ghost". During the battle, Ghost used a prototypical powered exoskeleton to hold off the Covenant while his fellow Marines and civilians evacuated Algolis. He used the suit's M149 to destroy several Banshees, a Phantom, and significant numbers of Covenant infantry.[2]

Trivia
