AVIATOR-class Mjolnir

The MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Aviator is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] utilized by SPARTAN-IVs. The Aviator suite includes integral gravity compensators and hardware-accelerated flight combat interlinks. The Aviator helmet's ultrawideband machine interlink gives SPARTAN-IV pilots unparalleled control over their aircraft.

Development history
The MJOLNIR/Aviator variant was manufactured by Hannibal Weapon Systems and tested at Kotka, Pori, New Carthage. Spartan pilots meeting D3-17 regulations and higher are required to use this armor in Broadsword A/X attack fighter engagements operations to comply with standard asset security protocols and the Budgetary Retention Hearings of 2554.

For decades the notion of specialized pilot armor for Spartans was thought redundant given MJOLNIR variants were already suited for the rigors. With the segregation of the Spartan-IVs into their own autonomous branch, the need for multiple intra-organizational disciplines materialized. This variant was designed for the operation of GA-TL1 Longswords, YSS-1000 Sabres, F-41 Broadswords, and B-65 Shortsword bombers.
