A/N: The SRS99A-S1 is basically the SRS99 variant from Halo: Reach. The M808A is the Scorpion's base/Great War-era model, and we all know the M808B, while the M808C is the post-war model. The G86 PDWS is the machine pistol from Halo: Spartan Assault.
HSM is heavy security mech, think of it serving a role like the Atlas from Mass Effect. Felt like including the civilian models too. Think of the MVIII Goliath as a cross between the Prototype suit from Halo Legends: Prototype and the Goliath heavy mech from Call of Duty Advanced Warfare.
Some of this is from Halo Fanon and credit goes to their respective creators. Any weapons from other stories belong to their respective owners as well.
The Sabre Program was dismissed by the administrations of UEG Presidents Samuelson, Dietrich, and Beland as a preposterous rumor.
I wanted the UNSC seem to be similar to the U.S. Armed Forces so their aircraft fill the same roles as real-life ones. Here is my opinions on the aerospace craft of the UNSC Army and Marine Corps.
The AV-30 'Sparrowhawk' fills the role of the AH-64 'Apache'/AH-1 'SuperCobra' (and the AH-1Z 'Viper') in Halo. The MV-25 'Hornet' fills the role of the MH-6 'Little Bird' in the Halo Universe. The A-26 'Claymore' also known as the 'SkyHawk' fills the role of the A-10 'Thunderbolt II' in Halo. The UV-182/UV-144 'Falcon' fills the role of the UH-60 'Black Hawk' in Halo, while the D77/D79 'Pelican' is the MV-22 'Osprey' in Halo.
Now onto the bombers and the strike fighters.
The F-53 'Gladius' also known as the 'Super Raptor' is the UNSC's equivalent to the F-22 'Raptor' stealth fighter, the design is actually based on the F-22 with some differences, such as energy shields and internal missile pods. The F/A-48 'Halberd', like the Gladius, is essentially the Raptor, is based off of the Navy's and Marine Corps' F/A-18 'Super Hornet' multirole fighter, just with energy shields and internal weapon pods. The F-46 'Katana' is basically the F-16 'Fighting Falcon' and has the same characteristics as the Halberd and the Gladius, being equipped with internal missile pods and energy shields. The F-45 'Xiphos' is based off the design of the F-15 Eagle tactical fighter. Also and this is my opinion, the F-41 'Broadsword' is kinda like the F-35 'Lightning II' as it has VTOL capabilities. All modern UNSC fighters are armed with one or two auto cannons, missile pods, and variety of other ordinance that can be carried by fighters.
The B-221 'Scythe' serves the role of the B-29 'Superfortress' and the B-52 'Stratofortress' strategic bombers while the B-92 'Rapier' stealth bomber fills the role of the B-2 'Spirit' and the B-42 'Supersword' serves as a tactical bomber. Bombers can be armed with different amount of ordinance from 'dumb' bombs to nuclear weapons in addition to railgun turrets in order to defend themselves from enemy fighters.
The UNSC's three late war transports are named Ark-, Sanctuary-, and Life-class, they are essentially the civilian ships from Halo: Reach. The Hermes-class freighter are the cargo ships from Halo Wars and Halo Legends: The Prototype. Those transport ships were built when it became apparent after the Battle of Alluvion (c. mid-2542) that the war is going now to be now fought on major colonies and needed ships that can carry heavy loads of refugees or in some cases assets of different corporations on major colony worlds. Hermes freighters serve in a similar role, as it can move heavy amounts of civilians or industrial assets from planet to planet.
By the way, I watched AfterBuzzTV's review on RvB Season 13 Episodes 8-12 with Arryn Zech and Miles Luna revealed the latter inspiration for the Chorus saga's favorite bad guy to hate yet makes you laugh - Felix. I guessed that he took some traits from the Joker, but I should've seen the traits of GLADOS from Portal and Handsome Jack from Borderlands in him as well. Speaking of Borderlands, Arryn's character, Doctor Emily Grey, takes some traits from Doctor Tannis, the crazy recluse of scientist we all know and love.
I wanted to make the UNSC's arsenal of weapons and equipment more diverse than it is in the games and besides I'm sure that Misriah Armory doesn't make every weapon and vehicle for the UNSC. By the way, did you catch that reference to Resident Evil?
