==Overview== | |||
Ranger-class armor is incredibly versatile, but it has a strength in its ability to operate independently of standard Spartan team configurations.<ref name="h4guide">[[Halo_4_Interactive_Guide#Armor_Types|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Armor Types: Ranger'']]</ref> | |||
The low-display bifocal visor balances intel management over visibility. The helmet also has resilient atmosphere lines. The armor has energy shield 7P-LCF actuator plug components. The pauldrons have a low-set concave pauldron design that offers impressive resiliency.<ref name="H4EVG"/> | |||

The Ranger-class variant is manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]]. | The Ranger-class variant is manufactured by [[Imbrium Machine Complex]] and [[Lethbridge Industrial]]. Designed for remote operatives engaging in hostile environmental conditions.<ref name="H4 Armory"/><ref name="H5 Armory"/> It was engineered so users deployed in the field on their own dont need to rely on intel cache, support handlers, and mission controllers. This lead to the armor being the leader within its subset for single-combatant effectiveness.<ref name="H4EVG"/> | ||
Due to focusing on operation singularity, the suit is not architectural comparable to other Mjolnir systems.<ref name="H4EVG"/> Even when the Ranger helmet is considered utilitarian and well designed, periodic issues with VISR compatibility bedevils maintenance technicians.<ref name="H5 Armory"/> By [[2558#October|October 2558]], the Ranger-class armor was no longer manufactured, though Lethbridge Industrial has been very aggresive in monitoring existing examples and acquiring suits slated for disposal.<ref name="H5 Armory"/> | |||
==Usage== | |||
There are rumors that early prototypes infiltrated [[High Charity]] in the latter years of the [[Human-Covenant War]].<ref name="H4EVG"/> | |||
The lone-wold approach to armor infrastructure was popular with [[ONI]]/[[Delta-Six Division|D-6]] operators in the field.<ref name="h4guide"/> | |||
