Project: CHRYSANTHEMUM is a set of SPARTAN-III bio-augmentation procedures, similar to those of the SPARTAN-II's but different in three main regards.[1] With advances in technology, the casualty rate for SPARTAN-III candidates was usually 0%, as opposed to the 56% casualty rate of the SPARTAN-IIs. The Spartan-III's had no need of a thyroid implant, and their augmentations were chemically induced instead of surgically implanted.[1]
Results
| Drug | Description | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 8942-LQ99 | "carbide ceramic ossification catalyst" drug.[1] | Skeletons become virtually unbreakable, allowing survival in harder impacts. |
| 88005-MX77 | "fibroid muscular protein complex" drug.[1] | Increased density of individual's muscles, allowing heavier lifting. |
| 88947-OP24 | "retina-inversion stabilizer" drug.[1] | Color sharpness is significantly improved upon, and night vision is adapted. |
| 87556-UD61 | improve the colloidal neural disunification solution[1] | Greatly improves the individual's reaction time, decreasing the time taken to react by 300%. "Spartan time". |
| 009762-OO [Gamma Generation] | Neural-altering non-carcinogenic mutagen. | Alters key regions in the individual's frontal lobe.[1][2][note 1] Enhances aggressive response to dangerous levels. Requires regular doses of 009127-PX and 009927-DG to be taken to avoid uncontrollable aggression.[2] |
| 009127-PX [Gamma Generation] | cyclodexione-4, bipolar integration drug | Counters the effects of 009762-OO.[1][2][note 1] |
| 009927-DG [Gamma Generation] | miso-olanzapine | Counters the psychological effects of 009762-OO.[1][2][note 1] |
Trivia
During Operation: TORPEDO, Tom-B292 ran at a speed of 30 KPH (around 18 MPH). It is unknown how fast the SPARTAN-IIIs can run compared to the SPARTAN-IIs, but it should be noted that he was 12 at the time, and without MJOLNIR armor.
