Armor Description Image
Air Assault In late 2552, as the Covenant lay siege to humanity's home system, ONI security personnel were deployed with AIR ASSAULT-class armor. The goal was simple: prevent the enemy from gaining control of the skyhook defense complexes that line the suborbital planes of both Earth and Luna.
MJOLNIR Air Assault
Aviator Spartan pilots meeting D3-17 regulations and higher must be outfitted in AVIATOR-class armor for all Broadsword A/X engagment operations to comply with standard asset security protocols and the Budgetary Retention Hearings of 2554.
MJOLNIR Aviator
C.I.O Allthough rare in the field, one of Archeron Security's most remarkable armor kits is the CIO-class armor Mjolnir variant used by Counter-Intelligence Operators for intel acquisition and strategic date conveyance deep within enemy territory.
MJOLNIR CIO
Commando COMMANDO-class armor originated by GEN1 as a prototype for standardized team leader kits, though it now endures expansive cross-role and distribute use with the equipment's mass production under the Naphtali Contractor Corporation.
MJOLNIR Commando
Deadeye DEADEYE-class armor, optimized for extraordinarily long-range target purging, was originally tested in the vast ship graveyards hanging in the orbital plane above Tribute's northern pole, a haunting reminder of the former Covenant's obliterative might.
MJOLNIR Deadeye
Defender After the Covenant War, the Orfanec Commission held at the Damascus Testing Facility approved the long-term aggressive focus on defense-centric armor systems. The most notable of these is easily IMC's versatile DEFENDER-class armor designed in Ankara.
MJOLNIR Defender
E.O.D The EOD-class armor's current manufacturer, the NCC, has further adjusted the system's plate configuration to reduce potential for dismemberment during explosive ordnance disposal activity and facilitation.
MJOLNIR EOD
Enforcer As of May 2553, all ZULU-level classified Office of Naval Intelligence sites must require security detail to wear fully operable ENFORCER-class armor, as tested under Ankara Field Stricture BL58-0 and approved by Ordnance Commission.
MJOLNIR Enforcer

Engineer

Expeditions to the volatile moon of Thales saw the first deployment of Lethbrige Industrial's ENGINEER-class armor, specifically designed to optimize subversion, repair, and the reconstitution of a wide range of technology in the field.
MJOLNIR Engineer
E.V.A Staying true to Material Group's prodigious GEN1 architecture, EVA-class armor has provided Spartan personnel with highly effective exoatmospheric and zero-gravity combat systems for over three decades.
MJOLNIR EVA
Fotus Battle-tested on the rough and tumble streets of downtown Kirkland, Washington, FOTUS-class armor has historically high movement proficiency ratings for coffee runs on rainy days. COUGAR-class safety protocols MUST be followed at all times.
MJOLNIR FOTUS
Gungnir Rooted in the development of the UNSC's M6 nonlinear rifle, GUNGNIR-class armor systems were specifically optimized for Spartan operatives using this weapon technology, but they are now used in a variety of scenarios.
MJOLNIR Gungnir
Hazop When its contract was transferred from the Materials Group, Acheron Security re-architected the GEN2 HAZOP-class armor systems explicitly for extended operations within exotic and environmentally hazardous locales.
MJOLNIR Hazop
Infiltrator Access-oriented systems, such as the INFILTRATOR-class armor, are explicitly designed to assist Spartan operatives in gaining undetected entry into heavly fortified, enemy-controlled sites.
MJOLNIR Infiltrator
Mark VI Previously employed by handful of SPARTAN-II assets, including the Master Chief, Mjolnir's Mark VI armor was the last iteration of GEN1 suits that were engineered for contesting rebel activity but quickly repurposed to deal with the Covenant. It is unlocked by completing Halo 4 on Legendary.
MJOLNIR Mark VI H4
Locus A contemporary stealth kit manufactured by Lethbridge Industrial, LOCUS-class armor was conceived specifically for tactical and strategic infiltration. Despite its exotic design, the primary differentiator from similar systems is its incredible durability in the field.
MJOLNIR Locus
Oceanic Now ubiquitous regardless of environment, Hannibal Weapon System's OCEANIC-class armor was originally designed to be most effective when used in aphotic deep-sea scenarios under the constant duress of extreme pressure and temperature.
MJOLNIR Oceanic
Operator With the abandonment of all CDS facilities on Meridian, the Nephtali Contractor Corporation took over production of the OPERATOR-class armor, which is now extensively tasted with live fire execises within an immense derelict shipyard outside the city of Abilene.
MJOLNIR Operator
Orbital Naphtali Contractor Corporation's ORBITAL-class armor set was comprehensively tested during the Covenant's assault on the Sol system in October and November of 2552, particulary in battles waged along the skyhooks and tethers orbiting Earth and Luna.
MJOLNIR Orbital
Pathfinder The PATHFINDER-class armor system was manufactured by Imbrium Machine Complex (IMC) and fully tasted in the brutal outland conditions of Bosque de Negro. Luna's infamously harrowing Black Forest.
MJOLNIR Pathfinder
Pioneer Equipped by Spartans providing protection to ONI expeditionary groups, Acheron Security's PIONEER-class armor was constructed to endure the rigors of a potentially hostile, alien envrionment and to optimize overall performance through inhibitor mitigation.
MJOLNIR Pioneer
Protector Materials Group's most recent armor variant is PROTECTOR-class, a redefining of the classic security-centric GEN1 armor systems of the past. This armor was designed explicitly for combat superiority during defensive engagements, including anti-infiltration and siege-resistant functionality.
MJOLNIR Protector
Raider This elaborate example of Mjolnir's GEN2 armor may substantiale Imbrium Machine Complex's claim that the physically intimidating visage of RAIDER-class armor can psychologically compromise enemies, deteriorating their morale and responsiveness.
MJOLNIR Raider
Ranger The RANGER-class armor is incredibly versatile, but is in its ability to operate independently of standard Spartan team configurations. This lone-wolf approach to armor infrastructure is gaining ground among the few ONI/D-6 operators currently in the field.
MJOLNIR Ranger
Recon Although the RECON-class of GEN2 Mjolnir armor is not substantially different from its predecessors, its new manufecturer has offered improved movement stabilizers and adjustable shield distribution channels for versatility during deep-field reconnaissance.
MJOLNIR Recon
Recruit Newly inducted Spartans receive a standard-issue default-configuration armor system known as RECRUIT. Most SPARTAN-IV assets required to use RECRUIT-class armor for an individally determined timeframe before requisitioning custom kits.
MJOLNIR Recruit
Rogue ROGUE-class armor was originally manufactured by the Vestol Corporation located on Tribute, but the razing of Epsilon Eridani by the Covenant in 2552 allowed Hannibal Weapon Systems take over of the armor's production three years later.
MJOLNIR Rogue
Scanner Although functional for use in general combat, SCANNER-class armor was produced mainly for search-and-rescue strike teams commissioned by ONI when the risk of rebel forces capturing critical government and military personalities significantly increased.
MJOLNIR Scanner
Scout Favored by Class-8 FDO (Forward Deployed Operators), SCOUT-class armor contains the most capable covert anti-tracking system and shroud-induction packages available for use. Its success behind enemy lines is unquestionable.
MJOLNIR Scout
Soldier SOLDIER-class armor typically functions in a support capacity on the battlefield. Operators can carry substantially more equipment than Spartans using other armor types while retaining their field mobility and dexterity.
MJOLNIR Soldier
Stalker Based loosely on the technology recovered from Jiralhanae enemy targets informally dubbed Brute Stalkers, the STALKER-class for GEN2 armor systems offers a vast array of hunter-tracker field improvements now considered prodigious among remaining D-6 operatives.
MJOLNIR Stalker
Strider STRIDER-class armor was designed explicitly for activities commonly referred to as jaunt-combat excursions, in which operators participate in numerous, highly varied missions over an impressively short period of time and within an isolated environment.
MJOLNIR Strider
Tracker A practice which became ubiquitous in the late 23rd century during the interplanetary conflicts, off-world tracking is now fully intergrated into the vast feature set of Mjolnir GEN2 armor. TRACKER-class armor assists in locating targets across excessively long distances, including both interplanetary and even interstellar shadowing.
MJOLNIR Tracker
Vanguard VANGUARD-class armor is a state-of-the-art front-line tech used primarily by SPARTAN-IV personnel in direct enemy engagement. Unlike other armor systems that facilitate secondary and tertiary needs. VANGUARD is a made solely for face-to-face combat with enemy units.
MJOLNIR Vanguard
Venator Though engineered for a variety of uses in the field, Lethbridge Industrial's philosophical approach on improving user opportunity during hand-to-hand or single-enemy combat helped define the benefits that make VENATOR-class armor so effective.
MJOLNIR Venator
War Master Easily the most exotic armor system deployed by Lethbridge Industrial, WAR MASTER-class armor is a multi-use, multi-function configuration, which, when utilized properly, can benefit the user in almost any combat scenario propagated on the battlefield.
MJOLNIR War Master
Warrior Streamlined for agility and speed of movement, the WARRIOR-class variant's architecture leverages intel from Covenant encounters to improve overall design and execution. It is typically considered the most pervasively distributed armor system currently in production.
MJOLNIR Warrior
Wetwork Although not often encountered in the field, WETWORK-class armor is generally employed in high-value target acquisition and elimination scenarios. Its most notable use was highly classified: the targeting of key rebel leaders on the surface of Talitsa by Delta Six operatives.
MJOLNIR Wetwork

TriviaEdit

  • The armor present in Halo 3 and Halo: Reach to not appear in Halo 4 include: ODST, Mark V, Pilot, Grenadier, Security, CQB, Mark V[B] and JFO, including their respective attachments found in Halo: Reach.
  • Halo 4 introduces 24 new helmets and their respective body pieces, more than doubling the eleven helmets found in Halo 3, not including Sangheili armor permutations.
  • The Mark VI armor available to your personalized S-IV in matchmaking is different than John-117's armor in the campaign, which is an upgraded variant.
    • The former resembles the Mark VI armor of Halo 3, it may be simply aesthetically changed for artistic purposes or possibly a newer variant of GEN2 armor based off of the GEN1 Mark VI worn by the S-IIs in 2552. This would make sense as to upgrade it for compatibility with the GEN2 line, and that the GEN1 armor is unwearable by the S-IVs, whom were not as effectively augmented as the genetically perfect S-IIs. 
  • This is the second "armory" where Mark VI in not default armor, the first being Halo: Reach
