Operator TII Helmet

== Overview ==
After the GEN1 iteration of OPERATOR would be forced out of it's former secrecy, ONI would seek to create a new protected design from the ground up, setting extremely high standards for their next model. This would result in the development of the OPERATOR TII or Type-2 helmet for the GEN3 platform. The latest innovations in sensor technology have allowed previously exposed sensors to be stored in armored housings. Analytics collected from previous OPERATOR helmets have proven instrumental in the interpretation and utilization of it's specialized sensors. These improvements result in a robust design, with higher survivability, consistent data transfer streams, and optional high bandwidth single-beam transmissions. Many of the components that are included on the helmet can be easily removed, repaired, and replaced on the field. These components include the headlamps, air filters, single-beam transmissions module, standard-issue supplemental armor, and forehead-mounted sensor cluster. Any Spartan equipped with OPERATOR is essentially ONI's eyes and ears. Developed and produced by the Horizon Autonomous Research Collective on Station T13.
== Known Variants ==
=== OPERATOR TII GEN3 ===
The base model OPERATOR TII helmet, equipped with the standard-issue AGEN supplemental armor, and a single-beam transmissions module.
=== OPERATOR/TAS/SUBNIVEAN ===
Refitted technology from salvager space crews. Originally intended to detect faults in components and document hull integrity; it's accurate 3D mapping software, and component analytics are crucial to navigating UNSC ships taken by the Created. The module is developed by Lincoln Technology-Evolved, and produced by Anderson Auto-Forge.
=== OPERATOR [C] ===
OPERATOR [C] or the Combat variant, is a major overhaul that optimizes battle performance and survivability while maintaining intelligence gathering requirements. It features a reinforced frame, an integrated HUL-I module for areas with challenging BattleNet connection, a CNM module with ONI MILINT data vault access, and CBRN rebreather. These modifications come at the cost of the custom, forehead mounted, sensor cluster; as well as some other various sub-components that were generally included with the base helmet.
=== OPERATOR [C] /TAC/STSHL-MOLE ===
A network module that will become active once the Spartan has reached preset coordinates, allowing them to access underground databanks that have been hidden by ONI on planets that officially "don't exist". The module will dissolve itself with an acidic capsule 24 hours after activation, don't leave it on your head.
=== OPERATOR [C] /TAS/STSHL-BLD-I ===
The BLD-I, or "Blood Eye", offers a precision defense drone sensor in a standardized shell. The sensor has had its drivers rewritten to support MJOLNIR targeting assistance software.
=== OPERATOR [C] /TAC/RIGD ===
A mounting bracket with woven steel cables that can mount any equipment that a Spartan's neck can support, this often leads to some unexpected field developments.
=== OPERATOR [C] /UA/AGEN2 ===
An Up-Armored addon that covers more of the helmet than the standard issue UA/AGEN on OPERATOR. Additionally it has native compatibility with STSHL modules.
=== OPERATOR [C] /AGEN2/STSHL-BLD-I ===
An AGEN2 equipped with a BLD-I module.
=== OPERATOR [C] /AGEN2/STSHL-MOLE ===
An AGEN2 equipped with a MOLE module.
=== OPERATOR [C] /RIGD/STSHL-BLD-I ===
An RIGD mount combined with a BLD-I module.
=== OPERATOR [C] /RIGD/STSHL-MOLE ===
An RIGD mount combined with a MOLE module.
