The Open Frame 92/Extra-Vehicular Activity, or Booster Frame is a fighter in service with the UNSC Navy, developed by the ONI as a protoype. They're extrmely heavily armed, to the degree they're classified as weapons rather than vehicles.[1][2]
They were specifically assigned for Extra-Vehicular Activity and Special Operations roles, dropped from hooks within the hangars of UNSC ships. The ship itself has no sealed cockpit, so a pressurized suit must be worn in order to operate the vehicle. It is also protected, at least partially, by energy shields. The rear part of the frame also contained a turret that was capable of being operated by another soldier who stood at the back and provided covering fire for the pilot. In addition, it possessed a gauss cannon as well as numerous missile launchers.[3]
Five were used by SPARTAN-II Commandoes in an assault on a Covenant fleet, in an attempt to board a ship and recover a "package," shown to perform extremely well against Covenant Seraphs. It is unknown whether this was the only time the vehicles were used.
