Overview
Upgrades are a vast numbers of modification equipment avalable on the battlefield to modify common equipment such as weapons, armor, ammo, grenades, and even certain vehicles. Upgrades were officially introduced into the UNSC military in 2599. The development of practical manufacturing tools has allowed soldiers in the military a great deal of adaptable equipment load-outs. Upgrades can be accessed through upgrade kits that are, at most times, plentiful. Upgrade kits usually consist of of less than a dozen unique parts and a data pad. The data pad is used to assist a marine in a step-by-step procedure and provide all technical specifications required to manufacture parts used to install a upgrades into certain pieces of equipment. Assembly is typically standadized, with installation being completed in less than ten minutes. Upgrade kits have become a standard equipment in the UNSC with one-two kits being used in almost every squad in active service.
