Early versions of the Semi-Powered Infiltration armor were developed by [[ONI Section Three]] around the beginning of the [[Human-Covenant War]] for use by ONI agents. A facility dedicated to testing the armor was constructed underground at the future site of the [[Avery J.

However, SPI continues to fill a usage niche in covert roles, particularly within ONI; the Spartan-IIIs in [[Veta Lopis]]' [[Ferret]] team often used SPI instead of Mjolnir due to the former's superior stealth capabilities.<ref>''Halo: Retribution'', Chapter 18</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/TDenningauthor/status/912699859924393984 '''Twitter''': ''Troy Denning status update #912699859924393984'']</ref> The SPI armor has also been issued to non-Spartan personnel, such as Veta Lopis, whose suit was custom-built to fit her small frame.<ref>[https://twitter.com/TDenningauthor/status/879779858393440256 '''Twitter''': ''Troy Denning status update #879779858393440256'']</ref> [[SPARTAN-G059]], deployed as an ONI assassin, used SPI as late as 2558.<ref>'''[[Halo: Tales from Slipspace]]''', ''[[Knight Takes Bishop]]''</ref> As well, the photoreactive plating technology has seen limited but successful use in several special operations ODST units.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-fifty-caliber '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Cannon Fodder: Fifty Caliber'']</ref> | ||
