'''SCANNER-class Mjolnir''' is a variant of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)]] developed by the [[Materials Group]].<ref name="H4 Armory">'''[[Halo 4]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref> 

The helmet features an SV module called the "LCX-20V1 SinoViet sight-augmentation module" for extreme-range reconnaissance. It does not mitigate operability, and can be slid back into a passive mode above the user's parietal plate. The helmet also has a low-set, concave rebreather apparatus.<ref name="H4EVG"/>

The helmet also includes several sensor capabilities and user-adjustable settings that are not yet compatible with standard [[VISR]] hardware.<ref name="H5 Armory">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref>

==Development history==

It was manufactured by the [[Materials Group]] and tested at the [[Damascus Testing Facility]]. Over several years Materials was balancing out the needs of personnel for search-and-rescue operations, appropriately fine-tuning individual components like the long-range sensors and large toolsets like armor-fixed rescue implements.<ref name="H4EVG"/> It was designed for the facilitation of search-and-rescue strike teams protecting ONI personnel, as well as critical government and military personnel from capture by [[Insurrectionist]] forces.<ref name="h4guide">[[Halo_4_Interactive_Guide#Armor_Types|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Armor Types: Scanner'']]</ref>

*Helmet description: The SCANNER helmet features a number of sensor capabilities and user-adjustable settings that are not yet compatible with standard VISR hardware.<br>

*Body description: The SCANNER is widely recognized as the best Mjolnir suit available for high value target and hostage recovery operations, though it is technically classified as a search-and-rescue variant.

==Trivia==

*Without the scope attachment, as shown in the concept art, the Scanner helmet would have born a strong resemblance to the [[Mark V]] version of the Commando variant helmet, more so than the GEN2 version.

*In both ''Halo 4'' "full set" images and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', the Scanner body is the same as the [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit armor]].

*In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', the Scanner armor is the same as the [[SOLDIER-class Mjolnir|Soldier]] armor.
