Another armor type is derived from traditional designs worn on [[Hesduros]], and bears some similarities to the Infiltration harness.{{Ref/Reuse|H4:EVG}} This style was in use by [[2526]],{{Ref/Film|Id=FUD|FUD|Episode=4}} though the prevalence of its issue relative to other wartime models is unclear. This suit has a very organic, almost chitinous appearance, reflecting its origin on Hesduros.{{Ref/Reuse|H4:EVG}} The helmet, which encompasses most of the wearer's face, vaguely resembles those worn by the [[Ascetics]] and Covenant Special Operations forces. A cross-shaped pattern of purple, or blue, insets faces outward from a central point on the helmet; the helmets worn by [[Merg Vol]] and Jul 'Mdama emit distinctive holograms, perhaps produced by their aforementioned insets. A blade-like "talon", derived from the armor worn by [[kaidon]]s on Hesduros, is located on the inner toe of either boot. The harness also has protective hand-armor, and raised foil-arcs on its back.{{Ref/Reuse|H4:EVG}} It is commonly worn by Zealots serving various [[Covenant remnants|remnant factions]] in the wake of the Covenant's collapse, most notably the [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|body]] led by [[Jul 'Mdama]], which was formed on Hesduros.
