RAIJIN-class Mjolnir

RAIJIN-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR [GEN2] armor.

Design details
The neural interface controller in the RAIJIN helmet lacks the feedback filters and bandwidth caps required by UNSC MIL-STD specifications in order to maximize short-term combat performance.

Development history
The RAIJIN next-generation powered assault armor leverages the latest exoskeleton advances and Mjolnir BIOS extensions for a new breed of super-soldier serving corporate and government interests.

Halo 5: Guardians
Raijin was first introduced as an armor set in Halo 5: Guardians in the Cartographer's Gift update. The Raijin set has two alternate skin designs; Sprite and Stormstrike.

Production notes
The Raijin armour was created by the Berlin-based outsource studio Airborn Studios. Internally, the armour was known by the codename A087 during development.

Trivia
Raijin is a god of lightning, thunder and storms in Japanese mythology. Fittingly, the skin names both reference lightning (a "sprite" being a small burst of lightning from cloud to an object, and "stormstrike" presumably being a lightning strike.)
