Service history

The M45E was originally designed for expeditionary forces operating on the colonial frontier. It has since been adopted primarily for use by the UNSC Army, with some notorious private security firms also using it too.[3] It was heavily used by Army garrisons on Reach during the Fall of Reach, and was a particularly favourite weapon of Emile-A239, a SPARTAN-III working under the Special Warfare Group Three as part of NOBLE Team. M45Es were also stocked aboard UNSC Pillar of Autumn in preparation for Operation: RED FLAG; during preparations for the mission, the ship's supply of M90s were largely hoarded by the ship's SPARTAN-II complement - leaving the rest of the infantry garrison aboard to use the M45Es. Despite the two being functionally equivalent, Major Antonio Silva held it as a sticking point for his larger distaste of the Spartan program.[5]
