yes the UNSC did have a rebellion on there hands but they crushed it, the MJOLNIR program was designed for other uses, the Spartans only did one mission against the rebels and that was to capture the leader of the rebels, and thats when they didn't have their armour!. most people think that there was only the Master Chief, but infact there were 63 Spartans in total, half were lost in a training exercise and put into the Intelligence Corps. thats when the Spartans got there armour to fight the Covenant
Actually, the SPARTAN program was designed for containing the rebellions. When the Covenant came, however, they had a new misison. Read about the SPARTAN program here.
