As much as I like Halo, I gotta say that one SPARTAN is overrated. It ain't gonna do much to a whole army. There's just too less(in this case one). One SPARTAN is not going to become the legendary fighter and destoy the HBE's entire army. However, SPARTANs are espicially useful for special missions. They can assasinate, capture, and even blow up high-priority targets. So they(he) can still make a big difference, even if not directly on the front-line.

Now on to the main stuff.

Small arms, gotta say, Halo, it's just more advanced. Regardless of what people say, Halo's weapons are more advanced than modern ones. They have higher rates of fire, larger-caliber, armor-piercing bullets, electronic readouts, higher range(sniper rifles), and much better reliability. Halo's missile launcher completely outstrips an RPG-7.

Marine Battle Dress is also equipped with various electronics and the like, and they all have nueral interfaces in their bodies overall not much difference but I still think UNSC Marines have more durable armor and more advanced electronics.

Halo takes it for infantry combat but lets get to the vehicles.

Now the obvious advantage HBE has here is the mechs.

Doing the rest later.
