Nightfall armor

The Nightfall armor is a powered combat suit worn by Office of Naval Intelligence operatives. Developed at the Special Warfare Center in Seongnam, Korea, Nightfall combines elements of standard Marine Corps body armor, ODST combat armor, and MJOLNIR. The armor is powered to some extent and is able to effectively negate the impact of a substantial fall during a deployment from a dropship, for example. A variant of the armor compatible with MJOLNIR [GEN2] is available for use by SPARTAN-IVs.

Spartans recruited from the Marine Corps favor Nightfall armor when stationed on inhospitable worlds due to its best-in-class life support. The kit looks very similar to the armor worn by Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, though its relation to the ODST armor's MJOLNIR [GEN2] variant is unclear. Major differences include a data crystal chip port on the back of the helmet (much like those featured and the Mark V and later MJOLNIR iterations) and a camera integrated into the brim of the helmet (which consequently extends farther over the faceplate). The helmet's visor is retractable and contains a sophisticated VISR suite capable of identifying and analyzing objects in the environment.
