++|IMPULSE REACTOR PROGRAM:  SUBJECT BRIEFING|++

Classification: OMEGA | Authorized Personnel Only

++|THE COLLAPSE: INCIDENT SUMMARY|++

The Collapse occurred 30 years ago. Duration: 4.3 hours. Cause: unknown. Origin vector: unknown. Casualties: an estimated 97% of the human population. All attempts at communication with Earth: silent. The enemy has not been named. Internal designation: XENOS. They have not communicated, negotiated, or paused in their assault on humanity.

++|THE IMPULSE REACTOR: PROGRAM OVERVIEW|++

Following the Collapse, the IMPULSE REACTOR program was greenlit under emergency wartime authorization. Standard ethical review: suspended indefinitely. IMPULSE technology reverse-engineers Xeno hardware at the neural level. Conventional pilots cannot interface with it, the cognitive load is fatal. Subjects integrated from birth, however, show a 2% compatibility rate.
