The [[Superintendent]] is a 2nd Generation [[Dumb AI|"dumb" AI]] tasked with making sure that the city of [[New Mombasa]]'s infrastructure (read: the Departments of Health and Human Services, Housing, Public Safety, Recreation, Streets and Sanitation, and Utilities and Transportation) is running smoothly and safely.

| <div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''NEW MOMBASA'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content">Two hundred and fifty years ago [[New Mombasa]]—at that time the world's busiest sea port—was chosen to be [[Earth]]'s first [[Space elevator|tether city]]. Over the next eleven years the city experienced explosive growth, but nothing compared to what followed. The city grew out as well as up, its urban sprawl unequaled throughout [[Africa|the continent]]. By [[2430]] New Mombasa had absorbed all of the island and many of the surrounding towns found themselves overrun by residents of the old city. The switch was never official and many of the neighborhoods within direct line of sight to the [[Mombasa Tether]] still distribute newspapers and [[ChatterNet|chatter directories]] under their "old" names, but all municipalities within a 74 km radius of the island are now referred to as [[Old Mombasa]].

The trooper enters the SOEIV and straps in facing the hatch. The hardened and shielded communications gear, which is built directly into the hatch, feeds the soldier information relevant to the current operation as well as providing a link between all members of the unit during the drop. While within the SOEIV a soldier's helmet integrated comm units are redundant and are normally only used if the pod's comm gear malfunctions.

The M7 submachine gun is gas-operated and magazine-fed. It fires [[M443 Caseless Full Metal Jacket|5mm x 23 caseless ammunition]]. Recoil from all but sustained fire is very controllable. Although the [[M7 SMG|M7 submachine-gun]] is primarily issued to vehicle crews, it is also a favorite of commando teams in its sound suppressed version – the [[M7S SMG|M7S]].

Variants:

*M7: standard issue

It has been widely noted that the disparity in the effective combat range between Covenant short and long arms are much greater than those of the UNSC—this is also reflected in the Covenant’s combat doctrine: destroy enemy morale with harassing fire from distant or hidden [[sniper]]s and intimate exposure to the alien-ness of their infantry.

Many technologies initially developed for the MJOLNIR project have gained widespread adoption; the use of ceramic-titanium composites for body armor and helmet-integrated neural interfaces being the most visible. The ODST helmet is issued with the VISR proprietary data management suite. VISR enables a user to link into UEG, [[Colonial Administration Authority|CAA]], and UNSC infrastructure systems at the local, national, and global levels (actual access level is administered on a need/rating basis). This allows the user to store and review audio files (up to 610MB combined), street level navigational data, and receive secure real-time mission data. In addition, every current issue helmet is equipped with low-light vision enhancement <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[ODST BIOS]] A29.817941B.01 or later].
