'''STRIDER-class Mjolnir''' is a variant of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2]]] manufactured by [[Imbrium Machine Complex]].<ref name="H4 Armory">'''[[Halo 4]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref>
'''STRIDER-class Mjolnir''' is an armor for the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)]].<ref name="H4">'''[[Halo 4]]'''</ref><ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref>
 
==Overview==
The helmet has a Ankara EV-A760 wide-range visor set, closed-breach sensor components open at operators request, and a Twin-case Class-8 support module (KR-03-A) used to improve suitability in space.<ref name="H4EVG"/> The helmet also contains heavy duty connectors and data ports for external attachments, though GEN2 specifications did not require it.<ref name="H5 Armory">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref>


==Development history==
==Development history==
The Strider-class armor system was designed explicitly for activities commonly referred to as "jaunt-combat excursions," in which operators participate in numerous, highly varied missions over an impressively short period of time and within an isolated environment.<ref name="H4"/>
Prior to the war with the Covenant, "jaunt-combat excursions" were seen as not relevant and not practically viable, this changed after the War started, leading the UNSC conning up the "Strider" term which means operators do highly varied missions over a short period of time.<ref name="h4guide">[[Halo_4_Interactive_Guide#Armor_Types|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Armor Types: Strider'']]</ref><ref name="H4EVG"/>
 
The Strider-class armor system was designed explicitly for Strider activities in which the suit has more endurance than most Mjolnir systems, handily resolving multi-task aggregation, coordinating missions on the fly, and effectually giving the operating Spartans the solvency needed to execute accordingly.<ref name="H4EVG"/>


The armor is equipped with larger sensor range. Its first version was used during the [[Defense of Concord|defense]] of [[Concord]] in [[2551]], along with other test models, that all lacked their full combat suite. After development was complete, and "Strider" was sent to pass its last tests at [[Anvil Station]] in [[2555]].<ref>[https://vk.com/page-79914897_50160433''' - ''Update 4'']</ref>

This armor is closely related to the [[VENATOR-class Mjolnir]].<ref>[http://www.haloarchive.com/forum/topic/333-halo-online-closed-beta-launching-in-russia/?do=findComment&comment=8090 '''Halo Archive Forums''' - ''Halo: Online (Closed Beta launching in Russia) - Page 2'']</ref>
After it was released the suit had become the unofficial base for heavily customized "frankensuits" due to its relative simplicity and extensively documented subassemblies.<ref name="H5 Armory"/>
 
==Usage==
Spartans utilizing this set often use Jet packs to increase mobility during excursions.<ref name="H4EVG"/>
