The Elite Flight Armor is a type of Elite body armor.

Introduction
The Elite Flight Armor is an armor of the Elite race. It is the opposite to the UNSC MJOLNIR Armor, featuring a dynamic recharging Energy Shield. The Elite Flight Armor is structurally very similar to the Elite Assault Armor, and bears minimal changes, mostly on the helmet. It's likely the armour of choice for Sangheili Seraph pilots. It is obviously environmentally sealed, in case the wearer must abandon ship or is in a vacuum for any other reason. Its sealed nature would likely help the Sangheili not to inhale any Flood spores in the atmosphere added during flood terraforming. It is probable that the wearer could go underwater with this armor on, as well. It will be an armor permutation in Halo 3 multiplayer. Bungie has confirmed all of the armor permutations have no effect on gameplay.

Development and History
The sealed helmet features a hyper-wave link for cleaner craft interactions and a mouth piece that retains a multi-port for use with older Tarasque-class heavy fighters and Gigas-class fighter-bombers. The more compact deltoid armor has less impact on range of actions in the cramped compartments of subluminal space craft and reduces overall fatigue in multi-phase interdiction missions. The less cumbersome cage utilizes aligned composites to postpone th onset of fatigue and the explicit primary enviroment multi-port is less restrictive that older helmet based ones.

Helmet Characteristics
Eye pieces are thinner and flatter, and are blue instead of yellow and are farther back in the helmet. The reason of being back farther along the helmet is akin to that of EVA, it is used in space. In space "the slightest movement of the head could send you into an uncontrolable spin", so the "viewport", if you will, must be larger. Features a pair of joined conspicuous gray circular plate at the rear of the helmet. Mandible guards are larger, feature bolts, and are fused together with a chin guard. Missing neck rings at the back of the neck. Helmet is more angular and shorter. Missing articulation lights at the back of the helmet by the cheekbone. Helmet has a pyramid shape if viewed from an angle.

Shoulder Characteristics
Shoulder plate is truncated and has at its center a circular device.

Chest Characteristics
"Detail" color placement is different. (It is alike in all of them except for Assault.). The chest plate features a I shaped metal bar with a series of U shaped blue lights running down its length.
