Sinoviet Heavy Machinery is a human company. They had facilities on Earth^[1] and Reach.^[2]

BackgroundEdit

They did shipping work in and around the city of Voi, Kenya in Africa. SINOVIET also created road vehicles for civilian use, most notably, the Sinoviet HM 1220 LTUV-M.

On Reach, Sinoviet created and built UNSC Frigates. They had a large office building in the city of New Alexandria, called the Sinoviet Center. In addition, Sinoviet had a ship disassembling facility in Aszod on the planet Reach, which became the final resting place for the UNSC Commonwealth among many other ships. This facility also became a battlefield during the Fall of Reach.^[2]

TriviaEdit

• The name of the company comes from the words Sino and Viet, which are also names for China and Vietnam respectively, leading to the logical conclusion that the company is based in Southeast Asia. Also supporting this is the fact the top floor of the Sinoviet Center on Reach has an Oriental theme.
• The Sinoviet box can be seen on The Storm level in Halo 3, and in its following level Floodgate. The Sinoviet logo can also be found on the sides of a few cylindrical tanks on the level Crow's Nest. A Sinoviet-owned building can also be seen in Halo 3: ODST.
• The layout of the top floor of the Sinoviet Center in the Halo: Reach campaign level New Alexandria is modeled after the Halo 2 multiplayer map Ivory Tower, for use in the multiplayer map Reflection.
