− | *It seems that active-duty SPARTAN-IV personnel wear part of their MJOLNIR bodysuit at all times, as evidenced by docking ports along their bodysuit. This is also evident as SPARTAN-IV personnel have not been seen wearing anything else. This is logical as SPARTAN-IVs spend more time out of armor and may need to don their armor quicker than previous generations. |

There is reason to believe a number of SPARTAN-IVs are former [[ODST]]s as well, indicated by in-game dialogue and Halo: Initiation. |

- “There won’t be any program — not like the Spartan-Twos, anyway. Or the Spartan-Threes, if I can help it. We’re back to using consenting adults now, like we did in Project Orion.”
The SPARTAN-IV Program is the fourth generation of the SPARTAN Program consisting of members recruited from the UNSC's military who were augmented to be capable of wearing a new variant of the MJOLNIR GEN2 armor. This phase was initiated by Admiral Margaret Parangosky after the Human-Covenant war.[3]
Similar to the original ORION Project, the SPARTAN-IV Program would only consist of adult volunteers as opposed to young children.[4] When the program was started, surviving members of previous Spartan generations were offered an opportunity to be integrated into it.[5] ODSTs were also invited.[6] The first active SPARTAN-IVs were already deployed as early as 2553 as some of them were temporarily assigned to UNSC Infinity before it was scheduled to launch.[3]
