'''R7 thrust couplings''' are a form of [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] propulsion system used to lift spacecraft out of atmosphere and into orbit. Attached to [[hardpoint]]s on the underside of the vessel, they are commonly used by smaller craft such as [[UNSC corvette|corvettes]] or [[UNSC frigate|frigates]] when entering and leaving docking facilities on a planetary surface.<ref name="drop">[http://www.halo.xbox.com/blogs/Headlines/post/2011/10/21/Office-of-Naval-IntelligenceSection-3-Data-Drop-Six-.aspx '''Waypoint''': ''Office of Naval Intelligence//Section 3 - Data Drop Six'']</ref> When taking off, the booster packages are typically discarded once the craft has achieved enough lift to leave the atmosphere on its own.<ref name="POA">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level, ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref> | '''R7 thrust couplings''' are a form of [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] propulsion system used to lift spacecraft out of atmosphere and into orbit.
