The Mark VI Mjolnir armor worn by MCPO [[John-117]] following the end of the Human-Covenant War was updated by UNSC AI [[Cortana]] during his four years and seven months of cryosleep aboard the {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}}. Cortana used [[nanotechnology|minifacturing]] and diagnostic systems to repair and alter John's armor.
