Damascus Ordnance Commission

The Damascus Ordnance Commission, also known as the UNSC Ordnance Commission, is a series of commissions headed by the major corporations in the powered armor industry, and sponsored by ONI.

History
There was an Ordnance Commission in May 2553. At this Commission, it was decided that Imbrium Machine Complex would take over production of the Recon Armor. It was also ruled that the need for defense focused armor was valid and helped set strictures that would lead to the creation of the Defender Armor. They also ruled that the Mark VI Armor could still be used among GEN2 armors. The cost of the Oceanic Armor caused operation of the armor to only be allowed with level-four approval by the Commission. The Commission also allowed Hannibal Weapon Systems to create a GEN2 variant of the Rogue Armor. Since the Enforcer Armor passed tests as per Ankara Field Stricture BL58-0, it was approved by the Commission.

Another Commission took place in 2557. At this Commission, the "Ruptive" weapon skin was approved for use with the M395B DMR, M6H2 Pistol, M20 SMG, BR85N Battle Rifle, and the MA5D Assault Rifle.
