FUSION COIL (UNSC)

Halo 3 Fusion Coil

General Information:

A fusion coil, also known as a fusion core, is a container used for safely storing and transporting volatile—and often explosive—materials. Different variants of the fusion coil have been manufactured by the UNSC, the Banished, and even the Forerunners. All known variants of fusion coil are in the shape of a rectangular prism. They each consist of a metallic outer casing to protect the volatile materials within. The contained materials can usually be seen glowing from within the fusion coils, and the glow becomes more intense as the coil becomes more damaged.

UNSC Fusion Coil:

The United Nations Space Command developed Fusion Coils to transport and store compressed superheated plasma. The containers are made primarily out of glass and aluminum. One variant is colored matte brown, overlaid with what appears to be austere gold circuitry on the surface. A second variant is metal frame holding an amber, darkly-glowing, cylindrical object. When slightly damaged, the internal coil glows a warning red; when heavily damaged, it glows bright white. Stickers on the frame warn of radioactivity and high voltage. It emits a loud humming noise constantly.
