During the [[Battle of Algolis]], the prototype exoskeleton was ordered destroyed under the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]]. Despite this order, the Marine known as [[Ghost (Marine)|Ghost]] took control of the exoskeleton to use it to buy escaping Marines and civilians time to escape for the duration of the self-destruct sequence.
