History
Human-Covenant War
During the war against the Covenant, Watershed Division manufactured over 2,000 units of the Semi-Powered Infiltration armor which were issued to the Spartan-III supersoldiers, with Ruk Ariaustin acting as the armor's design lead.[2] Starting in 2551, Watershed Division has manufactures the M11 combat knife for Spartan use.[4]
Post-War era
Watershed Division has provided state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities in conjunction with the Office of Naval Intelligence for the UNSC Infinity.[5]
Watershed Division was responsible for the manufacturing of the Prefect armor variant. The Prefect variant was the product of research on Trevelyan from the discovery of a native armor system, utilized by Forerunner Prefects late into their civilization's history. Watershed Division used local Huragok to reverse-engineer the original designs, grafting the abandoned armor system into baseline MJOLNIR standards for SPARTAN-IV use.[6] It was tested at Denegroth, West Conamara on Europa.[7]
In 2556, Watershed Division was placed under "Active Investigation" by ONI after the February 7 terrorist attack.[8] Following the Mission to Installation 03, John-117's Mark VI MOD armor received an upgrade from Watershed Division that brought it into the GEN2 line.[9]
