Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)



"With the addition of SPARTAN-IV super-soldiers into the Office of Naval Intelligence’s expansive military scheme, the Materials Group has spearheaded the next generation of Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor, officially dubbed ‘GEN2.’ Now produced by half a dozen military and privately contracted manufacturers, the newest format of ONI’s prodigious armor technology comes with ad hoc modification systems, which, in addition to Armor Abilities, allows for Tactical Packages and Support Upgrades. These enhancements give Spartans the opportunity to improve their combat performance as well as personalize their actions in the field."

- Halo Waypoint description

The MJOLNIR GEN2 Powered Assault Armor is the newest generation of armor specifically designed for the SPARTAN IV Program.

This armor was not designed or created by Dr. Catherine Halsey, but was instead created by the Materials Group. It is produced by dozens of manufacturers, both private and militarized. Aesthetically, GEN2 differs from GEN1 in its streamlined edges, pronounced power pack design and increased customization options.

With regard to armor customization, MJOLNIR GEN2 boasts a greater degree of modularity, with alternative helmets, shoulders, chestplates, legs, forearms and visors available. Moreover, SPARTAN-IVs are able to tune their armor using Tactical Packages and Support Upgrades to better suit operational requirements.

 * The limbs on the Spartan-IVs seem thin, which seems odd since Spartans go through augmentations which make them more muscular.
 * The undersuit is colored the same as the primary color, unlike all other Halo games.
