[41] The 2547 CAA Factbook entry on the Spartans states that the supersoldiers are "recruited from all corners of UNSC governed space" and that "each of them is a highly decorated veteran with literal decades of combat experience", but omits the program's ethically problematic background. Serin-019 became an ONI operative. [5], The augmentation procedures themselves took place aboard Medical Facility Endurance in orbit over Reach and began on March 9, 2525.[7]. Parangosky viewed the clones as unnecessary, maintaining that Halsey replaced the abductees with clones for personal, moral reasons, believing that she was giving the families closure and thus easing her own conscience. [25] Following the ceasefire, the surviving Spartan-IIs were offered the choice of integrating into the newly formed Spartan Operations branch along with the remaining Spartan-IIIs. [12][13] The bodies of those candidates who "washed out" were placed in cryonic suspension in the hope that they could some day be resuscitated. [67][68][69] However, with the original Spartan-II group dispersed across the battlefields of the Covenant War over the decades, certain team arrangements became more established than others. It can provide a Spartan with an incredible amount of protection and strength. The extent and severity of the augmentations likely left many scars. Advanced mechanical prosthetics have also been developed, although such technology is used solely for the purpose of replacing lost limbs rather than supplanting existing ones for any possible advantages they may have over biological limbs. [8][14], Once the augmentation procedures are finished, the subject begins a long recovery process. Sixteen Spartan-IIs are known to have survived the Covenant War: John-117, Frederic-104, Kelly-087, Linda-058, Naomi-010, Jai-006, Adriana-111, Michael-120, Leon-011, Robert-025, August-099, Randall-037, Otto-031, Victor-101, Margaret-053, and Roma-143; the last five have since been killed. [25], In October 2559, Blue Team was sent back to Reach on Operation: WOLFE to retrieve assets from the ruins of CASTLE Base which held the key to defeating Cortana. In exchange, they would receive a pardon from Thel 'Vadam for their actions. John-117 undergoing the augmentation procedures in Halo: Fall of Reach. [10] The superconducting fabrication of neural dendrites is said to feel like fire burning along the subject's spinal nerves. However, the Spartans who did survive became the most effective soldiers to be ever fielded by humanity, with superhuman strength, reflexes and stamina as well as virtually unbreakable bones. Can you be a Spartan? Physiological stress of the augmentations could have lead to cardiac arrest,[3] in addition to cross-chemical complications that could result in augmentation failure. Of the 150 children considered for the program, only 75 were conscripted. One of the essential and most dangerous aspects of the SPARTAN-II program was the biological augmentation procedures. The Mjolnir armor was created in parallel to the SPARTAN-II project and is the most technologically advanced piece of hardware in human hands. Spartan II's are better, in pretty much every respect. Originally envisioned as the second generation of the ORION Project under "Generation-II ORION"[3] and "The ORION Project Generation Two",[4] SPARTAN-II would be the first in the series to meld advanced exoskeleton technology with the soldiers' superior physiques.[5][6]. The Prelates' augmentations allowed them to overcome the San'Shyuum's natural frailty caused by generations of inbreeding and granted them strength, speed and reaction times sufficient to best even Sangheili in combat. [31], A MJOLNIR-clad Cal-141 was capable of blocking a Jiralhanae Chieftain's gravity hammer swing with a single hand, dodging multiple swings from the Brute, using her enhanced strength to jump to great heights, and wounding the Chieftain with a few punches and kicks; she was furthermore capable of pulling an occupied ODST drop pod out of thick mud and throwing it dozens of meters. Project Aster is the augmentation program for the Spartan-IIs. After Reach fell, there weren't enough Spartans left. One unidentified trainee - Committed suicide after escaping the program in 2525. And the Infinity wasn't even complete when the war ended, so the idea that the UNSC was suddenly going to pack millions of people into it and run away is similarly . Retinal rejection and detachment. [29] The status of Omega Team remains unknown. [7], As time went on, the side effects for successful subjects diminished either completely or to the point where it was considered mild. Spartan-II Augmentations - Most Detailed Breakdown - Re-release Installation00 188K subscribers 29K views 5 months ago In this episode: We re-release the Spartan-II Augmentation Most Detailed. [4], From 2511 until the augmentation of the SPARTAN-IIs in 2525, research continued refining and improving the chemicals to reduce the failure rate. [43], Three discharged Spartans have had the effects of their augmentations reduced through unknown means. The following is the list of all known Spartan-II subjects conscripted in 2517. The SPARTAN-III augmentations were entirely chemical. [36] During the Battle Of Onyx, Will-043 engaged a Hunter pair in hand to hand combat, and succeeded in killing one by ripping the worms out of its body, after Linda-058 bruised its mid-section with her sniper rifle. [4] Early analysis concluded that next-generation candidates must have "more malleable, robust DNA structure and repair enzymes," this being based on the fundamental flaw of the augmentation procedures performed on the ORION soldiers. Using such controversial means of creating a soldier meant that the project would have to be carried out in the highest form of secrecy. [38] During Operation: JOVIAN WHISTLE, Fred-104 successfully struck an Aggressor Sentinel to the ground and physically stalemated the drone as it started to push him around. Specific risk for pre-and near-postpubescent adolescents: skeletal growth spurts may cause irreparable bone pulverization. Headed by Dr. Catherine Halsey, early analysis concluded that next-generation candidates must have "more malleable, robust DNA structure and repair enzymes" and be selected through a stringent genetic screening process to avoid the washout rates of the ORION program. John-117 leading Silver Team in Halo: The Television Series. Surgeries were highly risky, intensive, and required special medical talent. SPARTAN-IIs would go on to play pivotal roles in the Battle of Earth, the Battle of Installation 05, the Onyx Conflict and the Battle of Installation 00. [6] By 2517, 150 suitable candidates had been identified through DNA gathered from the UNSC's Outer Colony vaccination program, though funding had been further reduced to support only half that number. Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites. However, these augmentations would kill or cripple half of the Spartan II's, so only 33 out of the 75 were fit for duty afterwards. Additionally, Linda-058 shot the pilots out of two Banshee fliers as she was hanging from a titanium cable that was attached to her arm and leg. A Spartan-II candidate who died during augmentations. The result of these programs, however, has yet to be determined. [6] The project was created with several goals in mind. [61] Few outsiders are willing to as much as touch a Spartan, such as shaking one's hand. As a result, they were not on the ship when it was attacked by the Banished and the Master Chief was thrown into space. Their safety and effects varied substantially from subject to subject, with the benefits and risks varying with the surgeon, the surgical conditions, and the state of the patient. [16] The Spartans' prowess was not lost on the Covenant, who came to fear, and in the case of the Sangheili, respect the Spartans as Demons. Vannak-134. Like the augmentations performed for the Spartan-IIs and the improved procedures utilized in the subsequent SPARTAN-III program, the Spartan-IVs undergo a series of procedures to enhance their physical capabilities and to wear Mjolnir powered armor. The selection criteria could be loosened, and the procedures' mortality rate could be eliminated to zero. Military experimentation with such enhancements has always been limited for the sake of moral and ethical concerns. Only a small percentage of subjects survived the process and fully recovered. [28] The motion of a Spartan in combat is nearly impossible for an outsider to follow, their movement appearing as a blur. Technologically, however, the new augmentations represented a major improvement over the previous program, while being cheaper than before: much less surgery was required, with most of the enhancements administered via chemical means. The project was implemented by the Office of Naval Intelligence's Section Three under the supervision of Dr. Catherine Halsey.[2]. The Pillar of Autumn soon arrived at Halo Installation 04, which John-117 ultimately destroyed to prevent the spread of the Flood. It would seem likely that Chief would not be able to see the "pilot of the lead banshee slump" or a Blood stain large enough to be visible in the cockpit unless the banshees cowlings were open even before they were shot down by Linda. A member of Gray Team during the Battle of the Rubble in Halo: The Cole Protocol. [86] Another girl, Janissary James, was selected as a suitable candidate for training. Catherine Halsey overlooks her Spartans as they undergo their augmentations. This bonding is likely achieved through some biochemical means to encourage natural bone integration and a tendency of the body to reattach the bone and ceramic if somehow separated. After each meal, the subject must report to the medical bay to receive a series of vitamin and mineral injections.[15]. [23] John-117 has been noted to have run at around 105km/h or 65.2mph during a MJOLNIR Mark V training exercise; however, his Achilles tendon was torn because the strain put on his body was unsustainable. 300% increase in subject reflexes. The injuries also gave 'Rdomnai a lust for battle and vengeance, both of which completely outweighed his own pride in his own Sangheili culture. [17], Due to the risky and dangerous nature of the augmentation procedures, many of the fourteen-year-old candidates died or "washed out" as their bodies rejected the modifications being made. Produces a marked visual perception increase. [10] Cal-141 was capable of negating a Jiralhanae Chieftain's Gravity Hammer swing with a single hand, dodging multiple retaliatory swings using her enhanced strength to jump great heights, and wound the massive adversary with a few punches and kicks. Surgeon Reacts to Spartan II. By the 22nd century, cancer had been virtually eradicated from the human genome, with any isolated cases that do occur being easy to treat.[16]. This comprises exposing the skeletal structure, removing a small layer of surface bone (no more than 3% of the bone's volume), and then bonding the carbide ceramic shell in lieu of the removed surface bone material. Once the subject has been sedated, he or she is transported from the pre-op wing of the facility to another area where the surgical procedures are performed. Determined to prevent the predicted carnage, Halsey agreed to work for ONI, specifically Section III's Special Projects Division, on creating a solution.[6]. Yes, in the Spartan II augmentations 33 Spartans lived, 30 died, and 12 were left crippled and disfigured. Meanwhile, then-eighteen year old civilian scientist Dr. Catherine Halsey had been improving upon Carver's report on her own. assistance. In the new DLC, Jerome is a leader himself, using Mark IV GEN2 armor obtained from Isabel and Hydra MLRS as a loadout, along with a new mech. The conflict also eliminated both Sangheili factions with only Rojka 'Kasaan surviving. This results in the bones being virtually unbreakable. The first was adrenal-response enhancement, which would enhance the autonomic nervous system to better balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic function in the body's response to stress. Only 33 survived the procedures without physiological deformities, of whom two would commit suicide in the following weeks upon encountering their flash clones. Twelve Spartan-II candidates were officially discharged from the program after failing the augmentation procedures, most becoming severely crippled. Also, even though several of the augmentations below are cybernetics, they are an intrinsic part of the Spartan II and therefore do not count . Though being missing in action since 2532 and discharged from service by ONI in 2546, Randall-037, now a Colonel of the Sedran Colonial Guard, participated in a mission to capture the smugglers of a highly dangerous element used as a weapon in a terrorist attack, and sacrificed himself to ensure the operation's success. There are sixteen Spartan 1.1s, including Janissary James and Kevin Morales. Spartan-II augs resulted in unexpected synergies as Halsey explicitly notes in TFoR. Spartan-IIs experienced the most extensive and invasive physical augmentations out of all the Spartan generations, starting augmentation at early pubescent ages increased their physical mass and height to around seven feet by adult age. The healing process takes anywhere from weeks to months, depending upon each individual subject's rate of recovery. However, he ended up trapped in space on the back half of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn and was declared missing in action. 11% of subjects could face retinal rejection and detachment causing permanent blindness. Alteration of bioeletrical nerve transduction to shielded electronic transduction. [11] Based mainly within the Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex, the Spartans endured a great deal of hardship during their first years of training: they were placed into situations and drills that pushed their abilities to their very limit and beyond. The only known candidate who was not conscripted was Caleb Aagard, who would have been designated SPARTAN-095. Many of the enhancements were to the neurological and cognitive abilities of the individual,[2] although at least the Warrior-Servants' mutations also made them physically stronger and more robust. Covenant strikecraft pilots connect to their flight systems using direct neural interfaces, which employ very minimal safety cutouts or filters. [52][53], The Spartan-IIs enjoy a great deal of solidarity and camaraderie within their group due to them having grown up together; indeed, they consider their fellow Spartans family,[54][55] something that was encouraged in their indoctrination from a young age. Kelly-087, Kurt-051, and another Spartan during the Onyx Conflict in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx. It's unclear whether or not John ran at this speed under the use of his own power or through the use of MJOLNIR armor. Officially, thirty Spartan candidates were killed when they failed to adapt to their physical enhancements; the only identified fatality was SPARTAN-073. [8][9], Only a few months after augmentation procedures, the SPARTAN-IIs were noted of being capable of running at speeds exceeding 55 km/h or 34.2mph. [9], To prepare the subject for the augmentation procedure, the subject's head is shaved and incision vectors are lasered onto the subject's body. [22][29] SPARTAN-IIs are also known for their sharp eyesight, their occipital capillary reversal allowing them to virtually see in the dark. Later models of the Mjolnir system are capable of carrying a starship-grade AI which can provide tactical data in the field. The ability to . However, the Prelates could operate at their physical peak for only limited periods of time, with the sustained use of the enhancements bringing with it a variety of dangerous side effects.[14]. After being kidnapped and sedated, the Spartan-II candidates were taken to the colony world Reach, where they began their training under Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez and the AI Dj, who also acted as an aide for Halsey on the program. In Halo Wars 2, the Spartan-IIs of Red Team are Hero Units units for the UNSC faction. Candidates of prepubescent age were screened based on genetic markers/SNPs that are linked to positive fitness and decreased disease incidence. A SPARTAN-II's reaction time, while impossible to chart accurately, is estimated to be twenty milliseconds. The reaction times of the SPARTAN-IIs were so fast that they, in heightened states of stress, were able to think, react and see things as if everything around them were simultaneously occurring at both a slow and rapid pace - a phenomenon dubbed "SPARTAN Time" by Kelly-087. An illustration showing the arm before augmentation and after. [83] Halsey eventually gave up on Class II and left the program, after she judged the candidates to be of an inferior standard. The candidate's bones are exposed via surgery or procedurally sequential surgeries. Recommended coverage not to exceed 3% total bone mass because of significant white blood cell necrosis. [6] While the ORION operatives were highly successful, the project on the whole was deemed a failure due to many factors, among the most prominent being the high "washout" rate of the augmentations as well as the limited effectiveness of the enhancements themselves. The identities of the Spartans' full names have been deleted from all military records. [37], In December 2559, Captain Thomas Lasky redeployed the rest of Blue Team on a separate operation of some kind as the Infinity prepared to deploy the Master Chief and the Weapon to Installation 07 to stop Cortana. [22], When wearing MJOLNIR armor, a Spartan's strength is boosted significantly. . The result of these programs, however, has yet to be determined. They possess numerous unique internal habits and signals conveyed through simple gestures or statements, making interactions among their group largely indecipherable to outsiders. Despite providing subtle enhancement in the areas of strength and speed, these augmentations were rather primitive in comparison to the supersoldiers created centuries later. In particular, the decision drew the anger of Admiral Margaret Parangosky, Commander in Chief of ONI, who interrogated Halsey after her capture and demanded to know her reasoning for the use of flash clones. Despite the impressive feats the surviving SPARTANs performed, many of the fourteen year old candidates died or "washed out" as a result of the augmentations. The SPARTAN-II augmentations combined chemical injection treatments with surgical procedures. After being ordered to assassinate Kwan, John rebelled and fled with her and the artifact with Silver Team moving to defend their leader on Halsey's orders. The SPARTAN-II program was based in a dedicated compound within the Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex. [14] During the events on the planet Onyx in 2552, Will-043 used his enhanced strength to engage a Hunter pair in hand-to-hand combat, and succeeded in killing one by tearing the worms from its bruised body. Each procedure is marked by a particular type of excruciating pain. The carbide ceramic ossification was said to feel like the subject's bones were breaking, as if their marrow was made of glass and was being shattered. [58] Although the Spartan-IIs often have difficulty socializing with baseline humans outside situations of a strictly military nature, they are rather gregarious among themselves and habitually cluster together while out of the battlefield, commonly engaging in activities such as playing cards, exercising together, reading, or maintaining their personal equipment. [17] It is common to find all of these varieties of medications in temples built for kaidons, which traditionally have been visited by them prior to planning a military campaign. They were, according to every single source from the canon. 300% increase in subject reflexes. [11] John-117 has been noted to briefly run at 105 km/h or 65.2mph during a Mjolnir Mark V training exercise. Chemical augmentations work on a molecular level by targeting molecules within the body and then altering them to begin a growth process of targeted tissues. Inevitably the small number of Spartan-IIs dwindled as casualties were sustained. The children were screened for certain genetic markers: strength, agility, even predispositions . [14][16] The catalytic thyroid implant and muscular enhancement injections produce extraordinary pain, as if the subject's veins had been "injected with napalm";[10][16] another sensation is pulsating and the feeling of the veins being torn out of the subject's skin. The hormone targets and stimulates the growth of fast and slow twitch muscle fibers, effectively producing significant gains in muscle mass. A Spartan is equipped with energy shields, can wield different weapons, command friendly vehicles, hijack enemy ones, and gain up to 14 veterancy points while other units cap at 3. Although the subject is in a state of unconsciousness during the procedure, they may experience excruciating pain. The procedures included: occipital capillary reversal, carbide ceramic ossification, catalytic thyroid implants, muscular enhancement injections, and superconducting fibrification of neural dendrites. Among these are automated surgery suites, featured on Covenant ships to treat wounds received in combat,[19] and magnetic splints which are used to hold broken bones in place. [11], During the occipital capillary reversal, a neurosurgeon cuts out a small space in the skull, exposing the brain. Against the wishes of Vice Admiral Margaret Parangosky, Halsey sought to create Cortana to help them out. [18] However, as injuries are an inevitable byproduct of combat, the Covenant military still employs a number of medical amenities. Rather than be buried or cremated, the bodies of the deceased were cryogenically preserved with the hopes of one day reviving these candidates. [6] As such, the Spartans possess a profound understanding of their role as weapons and the weight of the life imposed on them. Though there were only a few dozen Spartan-II soldiers left after the augmentations, they still proved instrumental in humanity's eventual victory against the Covenant. Spartan II Spartan II's were kidnapped at the age of 6/7 and trained to become super soldiers. Sangheili have drugs that are used not only for healing, but also for memory improvement and for dealing with anxiety. In the campaign, Spartan Red Team is recruited on Arcadia and available for all missions after Arcadia City. She considered several other "bellicose" names, including Praetorians, Landsknecht, Immortals, Minutemen, Titans, Argonauts, Odysseus, Olympians, Zulu, Kronos, Promethean, Armor, Nemesis, Daedalus, Hercules, Viking, and Hyperion; the latter two were quickly excluded.[6]. [72] However, at least one of the candidates allegedly killed by the augmentation procedures actually lived and were pressed into ONI service, their survival kept secret from their peers. One observed physical effect; the result of being fed growth hormone supplements, many SPARTANs were exceptionally tall and heavy. Each procedure was marked with its own unbearable pain. The first goal was to create a group of elite soldiers meant to subdue insurrections in their infancy, without substantial military casualties. Dr. Halsey suspected this to be due to inexplicable, synergistic effects resulting from all the augmentations acting in concert. The process and likely invasiveness of the procedure is what led to the high "failure" count. Five percent (5%) of test subjects experience a fatal cardiac volume increase. [32], On September 1, 2558, Gray Team were awakened from cryo and found themselves in the middle of a battle between two Sangheili factions, a Jiralhanae faction and the citizens of Suraka on the planet Carrow. [43] Admiral Parangosky planned to unveil the SPARTAN-II program's classified aspects to the UEG defense committee by early 2553,[44] although any information on the Spartan-IIs origins remained unconfirmed among military personnel as of 2555. John-117. Physiological stress brought on by the augmentations can produce cardiac arrest,[5] in addition to cross-chemical complications that can result in augmentation failure. The Spartans joined forces with local militia and remnants of one of the Sangheili groups to protect civilians from the Jiralhanae invaders. Had this been in the discipline of a bicep curl, a 3x coefficient would be considerably superhuman, and more aligned with their subsequent feats of physical strength in the excerpt. The trainees must be instilled with military value, and the understanding of war; something that cannot be taught to enlisted soldiers. Either that or finally perfecting cloning tech and using DNA samples from the original Spartan 2 selections by Halsey to grow a new batch of children that can be given the OG augmentations and any newer upgrades and possibly faster growing to maturity so they're ready for deployment within 5 years. As insurrectionist forces become more effective and the military's responses consequently become more forceful, the need for large scale military campaigns became more and more obvious. However, page 365 of the Definitive Edition of Halo: the Fall of Reach seems to imply that the Elite was a Minor or a Ranger by likening the color of its armor to the hull plating of Covenant ships. A platinum pellet is implanted in the left thyroid gland; this pellet contains a human growth hormone that is released into the body to boost growth of skeletal and muscle tissues. The subject could have experienced bleeding eyes, intense pain, constant headaches, and aches in the bones. that the true name of the "Engineer" species is. In a nearby cave system, John retrieved a Forerunner artifact that activated at his touch, something that was witnessed by a surviving Sangheili and reported to the Prophet of Mercy. Their gains have attracted widespread attention in the hopes of improving human strength and endurance. The surgeon performs a procedure on the capillaries, the smallest of the body's blood vessels, to reverse the direction of blood flow in each capillary to boost the blood flow beneath the rods and cones of the subject's retina. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7Aj. At age 14 (approx) they were massively augmented, becoming incredibly fast and strong, unlike anything else before them. [47], Randall-037 emerged from the augmentation procedures unscathed and served on the frontlines until he went missing in action in 2532. [14], The side effects of completing the augmentations vary, as the subject's brain relearns how to move their body with faster reflexes and stronger muscles. The carbide ceramic ossification is said to feel like the subject's bones are breaking, and as if their marrow is made of glass and is being shattered. In the years following the deactivation of the original ORION Project in 2506[8] the effectiveness of small special forces combating the Insurrectionists became too difficult for the UNSC to manage. Most Detailed Breakdown Of Spartan-II Augmentations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu737.
