Before the Combine launches their main assault on the White Forest rocket silo with a large force of Striders and Hunters, MIRT makes several adjustments to the Muscle Car, adding a rack at the back of the car for holding Magnusson Devices, which Gordon uses to destroy the Striders. He also modifies the vehicle to be picked up on Gordon's HEV Suit homing signal if separated from the car. Finally, MIRT alters the car's radar system to detect Combine forces, and Magnusson Device teleporters send an unlimited amount of devices to the field. Before going out into the field, MIRT explains to Gordon how the modifications he has created work.

During the battle, MIRT remains within the base to watch the field and send Freeman and others status updates on the Combine advance through megaphones spread around the area. After the conflict, MIRT celebrates with other Rebels and cheers and thanks Freeman when he reenters the base.
