Notice that there were less than 200 Spartan 2s, in fact, I think there were less than 100.
Quite true, and even Spartan IIIs were in limited #s and were spent on suiside missions so there were not alot of spartans
Plus regular S-IIIs lacked the equipment and training of S-IIs.
And ground warfare was not a realy problem to UNSC since they did won 6/10 ground engagements, ship-to-ship combat was the problem.
True most SIII were equiped with SPI armor, (which if i am remembering correctly) is the armor that blue team wears in TFOR book when capturing Watts...John(S117) got shot and the bullet penetrated the suit...so the SPI armor would do nothing against Plasma, unlike the MJOLNIR armor which has reactive plates the dissipates plasma on impact and has shields
