[2] The UNSC is divided into multiple subbranches, very similar in structure to the current-day
US military, as well as including medical and science divisions.
The commanding offices of the UNSC military are CENTCOM (Central Command), and HIGHCOM (High Command). The Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) is the most secretive branch of the UNSC, responsible for gathering intelligence, deployment of special operations, and distributing propaganda. In the novels
The Fall of Reach and
Ghosts of Onyx, ONI, specifically Section III, is responsible for the development of the
SPARTAN II and
SPARTAN III supersoldiers under the supervision of
Dr. Catherine Halsey and
Colonel James Ackerson, respectively.

[15] The game designers also wanted items that would be recognizable to players, yet futuristic-looking enough to plausibly exist in
Halo's 2552.
[16] In an interview, McLees noted that after human weapons had been vetted and the rough design worked out, "I went ahead and built the highest-res LOD (level of detail) – and this is where I get "bogged down" with all of the stuff that "nobody cares about" like correct barrel diameter, placement of safeties, sights, magazine release buttons, and making sure that the magazines are actually large enough to hold all the bullets they're supposed to, that they would feed correctly and that the casings eject out of the correct side of the gun."
[17] Occasionally, technical restraints forced design changes; the submachine gun introduced in
Halo 2 originally featured a transparent magazine which allowed players to see the caseless ammo feed into the gun, but it proved too ambitious given the time and hardware available.
[18]
Vehicles play an important role in the
Halo games,
[19][20] and so vehicles were also given a long development stage. The UNSC's vehicles were designed by Marcus Lehto, Eric Arroyo, and Eddie Smith, and were designed to be functional and utilitarian.
