Noble Team

Noble Team is a fire-team sized unit of the Special Warfare Command, composed mostly of SPARTAN-III supersoldiers and one SPARTAN-II commando as of 2552.

Overview
Despite SPARTAN-IIIs generally being expendable, Noble Team has managed to survive countless battles, always coming back from suicide assignments. Noble Team operates with non-Spartan military personnel more extensively than other Spartan teams. To grant them more operational freedom when interacting with regular military personnel, the members of Noble Team have been given higher ranks than most of the Spartans.

The Spartan-IIIs of Noble Team are the only known Spartan-IIIs to wear a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor. During the Fall of Reach, they were wearing customized variants of the Mark V model.

Team Composition
When one member falls in the line of duty, a new SPARTAN is brought in as a replacement. Carter and Catherine are the only survivors from the original team, and so share a close bond as a result.


 * Commander Carter-A259 (Noble One) - A "no-nonsense" soldier, Carter serves as the leader of Noble Team.
 * Lieutenant Commander Catherine-B320 (Noble Two) - Carter's second-in-command, Catherine specializes in stealth tactics.
 * Warrant Officer Jun-A266 (Noble Three) - A thoughtful and taciturn soldier, Jun serves as the sniper of Noble Team.
 * Warrant Officer Emile-A239 (Noble Four) - Described as being "the silent type", Emile is the assault specialist of the team.
 * Chief Warrant Officer Jorge-052 (Noble Five) - The only Spartan-II in the team, Jorge serves as the heavy weapons specialist.
 * Lieutenant SPARTAN-B312 (Noble Six) - The playable character of Halo: Reach. A new addition to the team, this Spartan's background is mostly unknown.

Former Members Other Members
 * Thom-293 (Previously Noble Six) - Killed on April 22, 2552, and replaced with SPARTAN-B312 just before the Battle of Reach.
 * SPARTAN-344 - A239's fill in if another Insurrectionist operation comes up.

Trivia

 * Noble Team's existence was hinted at in the novel Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, when James Ackerson wished to have Tom-B292 for his own private operations.
