Warfleet make the change that the OPDs at earth were a different class,we can tell this by the fact they are listed with a different type of Mac(I cant find its name but it is note the Mark 5)īoth Earth's and Reachs models are Mark 5 Super MACs which implies the weapons at the very least are the same, Warfleet gives a further sub classification called Moncton, but we don't know if the ones at Reach are different because they aren't mentioned in the book so it's irrelevant. This one represents the ODP at reach with the Mark 5(?) Super Mac. Again Johnson's dialogue at the start of H2 heavily implies they're the same.

Neither of which explicitly state they're two seperate models and that earths ODPs are worse, that's something people headcanoned. So the change came from halo fleet battles and changes in halo warfleet (about 2015-17 Sure the wireless power to ODPs is a bit problematic but this energy is not beyond the UNSC especially for late war UNSC. Even in the re-release of The Fall of Reach the numbers were kept for The ODPs. Having hand held nukes with the yield of 30 megatons. Whose ships weigh millions of tons and could perform 30-100 gees of acceleration, spewing out kilotons to megatons alone to move their ships. I don't see why it's improbable this is the same UNSC who built planet destroying Nova bombs. The primary problem identified was that it was improbable for the Mk5 SMAC to launch a projectile of 3000 tons at 4% speed of light using wireless transfer power broadcasted from surface generators. Originally disputed in order to explain the plot holes in the October 20th invasion and later mathematically deemed impossible due to the common technological level of humanity showcased in the games. Iirc reading somewhere the listed firepower of Monctons in the books is debatable.
