GUNGNIR helmet

The GUNGNIR helmet, as seen in the armory.

Project GUNGNIR was a top-secret UNSC program under the supervision of the Office of Naval Intelligence.[1] Rear Admiral Hieronymus Michael Stanforth had some degree of involvement with the project.

The project is known to have produced many supplementary armor systems, including the GUNGNIR knee guards, helmet, and pauldrons for the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor. These armor components are also utilized by the UNSC Army and the UNSC Marine Corps.[2] It also oversaw the development of the W/AV M6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle, more commonly known as the SPARTAN Laser.[3]

Trivia

  • In Norse mythology, Gungnir ("swaying one") is Odin's magical spear, which is an infallibly accurate weapon. The symbol for Gungnir is located on the side of the Spartan Laser. The weapon's abbreviation, W/A M6 G/GNR, bears a notable resemblance to the name "Gungnir." Like the Spartan Laser, the Gungnir of mythology is an extremely accurate weapon.
  • The GUNGNIR helmet has only one video camera "eye" on one side of the face; in Norse mythology, the god Odin also had one eye.
