Template:Ratings Template:Infobox Military Unit

The New Mombasa Police Department (or NMPD) was the primary law enforcement agency of New Mombasa, Kenya [1].

The NMPD was also charged with operating in Old Mombasa, in addition to their normal routines in the industrialized metropolis of New Mombasa. When New Mombasa was attacked by the Covenant Empire during the Battle of Earth, they assisted the United Nations Space Command in fending off the invasion force [2]. The NMPD Headquarters was located at the Tanaga district of New Mombasa. At the time of the Covenant invasion they were under the command of Commissioner Kinsler, a highly corrupt official who used them as his private army. While some officers were loyal to Kinsler, there were also many officers who resented him.

Equipment

The standard kit for the NMPD officer is an all black uniform, consisting of a utility uniform, body armor, and a modified CH252 Helmet with a blast-visor. Their armament includes weapons such as the MA5C ICWS Assault Rifle, M90A Shotgun and the M7/Caseless Submachine Gun. NMPD SWAT teams often utilized flashbang grenades.

In addition to the hundreds of modified HuCiv Genet police vehicles patrolling the streets, the New Mombasa Police Department also maintains a fleet of modified-D77H-TCI Pelican Dropships in Police livery. Notable additions include a high speed camera on the bow of the dropship, and a rescue cable at the rear of the troop bay. These dropships are armed with the AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun in the troop bay.

Trivia

  • Section 14 is likely related to, or a part of the NMPD, as it acts as a policing force in New Mombasa.
  • The NMPD Sergeant who commands the defense of the ONI building is voiced by Pete Stacker who also voices GySgt. Stacker and Cpt. Keyes.
  • The NMPD's Riot Gear seems to match those used by the Police in the book Halo: Contact Harvest.
  • The seal of the NMPD bears the same emblem used to represent the Blue Team in Halo's multiplayer system from Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo 2.
  • So far there are three known models for the NMPD officers in Halo 3: ODST. The normal one with full-black uniform, the one with gray pants and shoulders, and the special sergeant model at the ONI Alpha Site.
