| The '''Anvil Initiative''' is a cross-training and evaluation program of the [[United Nations Space Command]] and [[Swords of Sanghelios]], aimed at providing a framework of mutual co-operation between the two species' in the increasingly-hostile [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war]] environment of the [[Milky Way]].{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=37}} | | The '''Anvil Initiative''' is a cross-training and evaluation program of the [[UNSC Armed Forces]]' [[Spartan Operations]], operated in collaboration with the [[Swords of Sanghelios]]. The Anvil Initiative provides [[Spartan-IVs]] an opportunity to directly interact and train with [[Sangheili]] warriors in both shared [[War Games]] and live exercises aboard [[ANVIL Station]].{{Ref/Site|Id=CFAO|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/armor-online|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Armor Online}} Anvil also tests hybrid technologies developed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], corporate partners, Sangheili [[artisan-armorer]]s, and special research collaborations.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm47}} The program was established alongside [[Project CRUCIBLE]], which aimed to create a joint Spartan-Sangheili task force to begin building a robust relationship between the two species'.{{Ref/Reuse|CFAO}} |

| ==Overview==
| | The location of the Anvil Initiative and the details of its select participation are classified, and access is by invitation only.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm47}}{{Ref/Site|Id=Have S'moa|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-have-s-moa|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - 12 Have S'Moa}} |
| The Anvil Initiative focuses on the operation of [[ANVIL Station]]{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} - a classified location and accessible only by special invitation.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm47}}{{Ref/Site|Id=Have S'moa|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-have-s-moa|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Have S'Moa|D=01|M=6|Y=2020}} The station serves in part as a joint-research ground for researchers, allowing participants in the initiative to test hybrid technologies developed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] (ONI), corporate partners, Sangheili [[artisan-armorer]]s, and special research collaborations.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm47}} These include Sangheili aiding ONI researchers in understanding the operation of [[Assembly Forges]] and the finer aspects of [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] navigation, while human engineers work with Sangheili [[clan]]s and artisans to reintroduce concepts of large-scale industrial agriculture and help learn to exploit some of the hidden niches of their technology - much of which was reverse-engineered from that of the [[Forerunner]]s and forbidden from unauthorised experimentation and research during the [[Covenant]] era.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |

| Aside from purely scientific aims, the Anvil Initiative was established alongside [[Project CRUCIBLE]], which aimed to create a joint Spartan-Sangheili task force to begin building a robust relationship between the two species'.{{Ref/Reuse|CFAO}} As such, ANVIL Station provides the UNSC's [[Spartan Operations]] personnel an opportunity to directly interact and train with [[Sangheili]] warriors in both shared [[War Games]] and live exercises aboard the station.{{Ref/Site|Id=CFAO|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/armor-online|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Armor Online|D=01|M=6|Y=2020}} These exercises hope to combine both human and Sangheili millennia of martial expertise into one cohesive whole.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
