Successful reverse-engineering of Covenant technology has been difficult for the UNSC, primarily because of the Covenant's own poor understanding of the technologies they use. Human researchers often don't know if the applications to which the Covenant put their equipment were the original intent of its originators, the Forerunners, and a good deal of research has been simply guesswork - but very good guesses. The most well-known and successful technology that has resulted from this process is the MJOLNIR energy shield generators, which have formed the basis for all post-Reach shield technology - but they are certainly not the only success story the Navy has seen.

| - Successful reverse-engineering of Covenant technology has been difficult for the UNSC, primarily because of the Covenant's own poor understanding of the technologies they use. Human researchers often don't know if the applications to which the Covenant put their equipment were the original intent of its originators, the Forerunners, and a good deal of research has been simply guesswork - but very good guesses. The most well-known and successful technology that has resulted from this process is the MJOLNIR energy shield generators, which have formed the basis for all post-Reach shield technology - but they are certainly not the only success story the Navy has seen. Developed concurrently, the Thanatos-Class Prowler made use of reverse-engineered prototype active camouflage, appropriated from the combat harnesses of stealth and special operations Elite warriors and crashed stealth corvettes. Initially limited in its capabilities and efficiency, numerous updates would dramatically improve the class's effectiveness, and the technological exchange that followed the conclusion of the war would usher in a new age for the class, where their usefulness would be paramount. Only seventeen were ever built, and though the Navy refuses to confirm or deny that any have been destroyed, records seem to indicate that only three have ever been lost to enemy fire. Most details about them are classified November Black, other than the occasionally unreliable material the Office of Naval Intelligence includes in its propaganda.
