But uhh, the UNSC was more meant for managing colonies and quelling insurrection, heck, even the SPARTANS were made for that purpose, Reach was only well equipped because if insurrection occurred they were fucked.
Same with the Covenant actually...
Have you seen their first scarabs?

Even the Spartans weren't originally intended for fighting the Covenant; it just so happened that they were the best line of defense against it.
But even then it makes no sense how they INSIST on using such awful stuff like the warthog everywhere. The Warthog only works as a scout car or FAV, only, but they use it as the main means of mechanization, they have no APC but they have an MBT, they Elephant is perfectly suited for extended and isolated operation, not what you'd expect against guerrilla fighters. The UNSC inventory just seems to be poorly planned out on a large level and not just for fighting the covenant.
It was refitted for combat and it's easier to mount, say a gauss cannon on the back than a humvee.
But I do agree,
Though there is a large portion of non-game halo tech n' shit.
