Project GUNGNIR was a top-secret UNSC program created by Section Three of the Office of Naval Intelligence and under the supervision of Rear Admiral Michael Stanforth.
Overview[]
The program consisted of two separate but parallel teams, one tasked with creating the Weapon/Anti-Vehicle Model 6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle, more commonly known as the Spartan Laser, while the other produced the Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor variant known as GUNGNIR armor.[1]
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.[2][3] 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 symbol can be seen on the side of the Forklift in Halo: Reach.
