HERMES-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor manufactured by the Watershed Division.[3]
GEN2 overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The Hermes suit features a neural interface that requires a lengthy synchronization process before it can be used. It is also equipped with a highly powerful embedded enhanced mobility subsystem.[3]
Development history[edit]
This suit is a custom designed EVA-pattern prototype designed by the Watershed Division for orbital raids.[3]
Usage[edit]
Only a handful of Spartans can use this suit safely due to the power of its enhanced mobility subsystem.[3] It was most notably worn by Spartan-II Kelly-087 from the Mission to Installation 03[4] to the Battle of Genesis.[1][5] This variant would also possess a distinct "087" stenciled on the chest plate in Braille; an identifying trait that was present across Blue Team's [GEN2] armor.
IIC overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The IIC variant of the Hermes helmet is a cost-reduced adaptation of the GEN2 design that retains the signature Enhanced Mobility System.[6]
GEN3 overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
Although the synchronization process required by the GEN3 Hermes neural interface is long and painful, success will grant a Spartan unparalleled response latency and predictive reflex.[7] The GEN3 incarnation of the Hermes' helmet is aesthetically similar to the MJOLNIR Mark IV EVA helmet worn by Kelly-087 during Operation: WARM BLANKET.
Development history[edit]
GEN3 Hermes was developed and tested in September 2559 aboard Perihelion Station.[8]
Usage[edit]
Kelly-087 tested the GEN3 Hermes helmet for the first time in September 21, 2559.[8] She then use it in combat during Operation: WOLFE a few weeks later.
In-game information[edit]
Halo 5: Guardians[edit]
Hermes was introduced in Halo 5: Guardians as an armor permutation unlockable via the Requisition system. Like Centurion and Argus, the armor acts as a faithful recreation of Kelly-087's armor within Halo 5's campaign.
