New Mombasa Police Department
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The New Mombasa Police Department (or NMPD) was the primary law enforcement agency of New Mombasa, Kenya [1].
It's possible that 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, they assisted the United Nations Space Command in fending off the invasion force [2]. The NMPD Headquarters was located at the center of New Mombasa. At the time of the Covenant invasion they were under the command of Commissioner Kinsler.
Equipment
The standard kit for the NMPD officer is an all black uniform, consisting of a utility uniform, body armor, and a helmet with a blast-visor. Their armament includes weapons such as the MA5C ICWS Assault Rifle, M90A Shotgun and the M7/Caseless Submachine Gun. In a recent video, what is speculated to be a member of the NMPD is shown wearing black body armor with a blue helmet.
In addition to the hundreds of 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, or a part of the NMPD, as it acts like a policing force in New Mombasa.
- The black NMPD Sergeant who commands the defense of the ONI building is voiced by Pete Stacker who also voices GySgt. Stacker and Cpt. Keys.
- The NMPD's Riot Gear seem's to match those used by the Police in the book Halo: Contact Harvest
- For a Police force they use heavy military weapons leading some to bieleve there a Branch of the UNSC or they were just supplied by the UNSC Marine's.
