The SPARTAN-IV Program is the fourth generation of the SPARTAN Program. It consists of members recruited from the UNSC's military who were augmented to be capable of wearing a variant of the MJOLNIR GEN2 armor. This phase was initiated by Admiral Margaret Parangosky after the Human-Covenant War, and some are stationed near the UNSC Infinity in the Oort Cloud.[1]

Similar to the original ORION Project, the SPARTAN-IV Program would only consist of adult volunteers, as opposed to young children (although very successful).[2] When the program was started, the surviving members of the previous generations were offered to be integrated into it, though it's unknown how many exactly accepted or declined.[3] The first active SPARTAN-IVs were already deployed by 2553 as some of them were temporarily assigned to the UNSC Infinity before it was scheduled to launch.[4]

It has been stated that red SPARTANs fight blue SPARTANs because they are in a training simulation aboard the UNSC Infinity.
