The UNSC uses Titanium-A for construction of [[Base]]s as well, to make them less susceptible to destruction. Places such as [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]], [[CASTLE Base]] and [[Camp Hathcock]] used Titanium-A armor in their superstructures.

==Titanium-A3 Armor==
==Titanium-A3 armor==
Titanium-A3 armor is a variant of Titanium-A battle plating. Like Titanium-A, it is scientifically altered for stronger hulls of ships, but in tune with a more advanced molecular design than the armor's earlier variant. Its use has only been noted to that of the [[UNSC Infinity]]. This armor likely existed good into midst of the war, upon the construction of the Infinity starting in [[2537]]. One can assume that this armor is much stronger than its original by looking at the hulls of ships: the Trafalgar had 10m of Titanium-A armor; and the Infinity had 4.9m of Titanium A-3 armor. The Infinity is the largest and most advanced ship created by the [[UNSC]], with this in mind, it is highly unlikely the Trafalgar would be given a hull twice as strong.
Titanium-A3 armor is a variant of Titanium-A battle plate. Like Titanium-A, it is chemically altered on the molecular level to produce a stronger plate for ship hulls. It has only been noted to be used on the [[UNSC Infinity|UNSC ''Infinity'']]. One can assume that this armor is much stronger than its older variant by looking at the hulls of ships: The ''Trafalgar'' had 10 meters of Titanium-A armor,  while the ''Infinity'' had a thinner 4.9 meters. With the fact that the ''Infinity'' is the largest and most advanced ship created by the [[UNSC]], it is highly unlikely that it would possess a weaker hull than the ''Trafalgar''.
