The entrance

Traxus Factory Complex 09 was a Traxus installation in Voi, Kenya on Earth. Companies such as Fueder Construction, Sinoviet, and COBB Industries also worked at Complex 09.

Background

During the Battle of Voi in 2552 the factory, which was originally involved with space elevator shipments, was attacked by Covenant Loyalists. The small defending contingent of UNSC Marines was wiped out and most of the complex was occupied by the attackers.[1] The factory was then retaken by a UNSC counter-attack, led by John-117, and assisted by some surviving civilian workers.[1] Shortly afterward the complex was overrun by Flood from a Flood-controlled CCS-class Battlecruiser that crashed in a nearby lake bed.[1]

The Flood were pursued by a Covenant Separatists fleet, led by Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum aboard the Assault Carrier Shadow of Intent. The fleet reverted from slipspace above Complex 09 and deployed Sangheili against the Flood in the surrounding environs.[2] However, the outbreak could not be contained and Rtas 'Vadum opted to glass some of the African landmass, including Complex 09, to prevent the Flood from spreading further.[2]

Trivia

  • Traxus Factory Complex 09 is also the site of the Halo 3 multiplayer map, Template:Levelname. Foundry appears to be located along the edge of the complex, against a body of water; across this body of water, another complex (numbered 71 and presumably owned by Traxus) can be seen.
