SECURITY-class Mjolnir, also designated as the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/M variant, is a MJOLNIR armor variant adapted from an infiltration prevention suit designed by Misriah Armory.[1]
GEN1 overview[edit]
Development history[edit]
The Security variant was first manufactured in the Misriah Armory facility on Mars in 2528.[7] After Mark V was released, this armor was adapted to its use. Like most MJOLNIR variants, the later model of the Security helmet had been upgraded to be compatible with all MJOLNIR Mark VI variants.[2] The Mark V iteration of the helmet is compatible with CBRN, UA, CNM and HUL attachments.
After the first wave of GEN2 systems, based on requests of veteran Spartan-II and Spartan-III operatives, the UNSC Ordnance Commission considered reassessing a refined and upgraded version of the EVA-class Mjolnir suit. This led to the creation of the WRATH-class Mjolnir where its right shoulder pad is based off the Mark V Security shoulders.[8][9] SECURITY [GEN1] helmets continued to be used by Misriah Armory's executive protection teams after the Covenant War. These helmets have been upgraded to be compatible with GEN2 systems, though corporate representatives balk at releasing its custom VISR.[10] As late as 2560, the GEN1 Security helmet and shoulders could still be requisitioned by Spartans, upgraded to be compatible with GEN3. These helmets are used by Spartans assigned to the Office of Naval Intelligence's Physical and Technical Security Office, used to defend information depots and military sites.[11][12]
