No 1/2 ons, not even in level 6 or 7.

Level 6/7 have a choice of a Tsukahara entry vault where the turn on to the vault table is between 90-180 degrees with a landing on their feet on a mat stack behind the vault table. I believe that is what most gyms would consider a "1/2 on" and therefore allowable...

The level 5 vault, however, has not changed and only a FHS is allowable.

No, a Tsuk is a Tsuk. It's not considered a half on, because the entry for a Tsuk can be from 1/4 on. A half on must be a half turn on with no staggered hand placement like a Tsuk and no bent leading arm like a Tsuk, or it gets deductions. The only choice for level 5 is a front handspring. The only choices for level 6/7 are front handspring to mat stack (front/front), Yurchenko entry to mat stack, and Tsuk entry to mat stack.
