The UNSC Army primarily deploys from pre-established land bases to engaged hostile forces. Assaults can be commenced from air, land, or sea, making the Army (along with the Marine Corps) one of the most versatile branches of the UNSCDF. The Army is known to use equipment and weaponry that differs from their marine counterparts. Examples include: the M392 DMR, the MA37 Assault Rifle, and M45 Tactical Shotgun, as opposed to BR55 Battle Rifle, the MA5B/MA5C Assault Rifles, and the M90 Shotgun.
