'''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>

===Specifications===

The helmet has an Ankara EV-A760 wide-range visor set, closed-breach sensor components that open at the operator's 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>

Prior to the [[Human-Covenant War]], "jaunt-combat excursions" were not seen as relevant or practically viable; this changed after the war started, leading the UNSC creating the "Strider" term for operators who conduct highly varied missions over a short period of time.<ref name="H4EVG"/><ref name="h4guide">[[Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Armor Types|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Armor Types: Strider'']]</ref>

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"/>

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"/>

Spartans utilizing the Strider set often use [[jetpack]]s to increase mobility during excursions.<ref name="H4EVG"/>

====MCC descriptions====

*'''Helmet description''': A popular helmet for jaunt-combat excurions.

'''Unlock''': Rare [[REQ pack]]

*'''Helmet description''': The STRIDER helmet contains heavy duty connectors and data ports for external attachments, though GEN2 specifications did not require it.

*'''Body description''': The STRIDER has become the unofficial base for heavily customized "frankensuits" due to its relative simplicity and extensively documented subassemblies.

In ''Halo 5: Guardians'' due to the "Body" having a predefined customisation this armor set permanently has the following parts from ''Halo 4'':

*'''Body''': Enforcer

*'''Shoulders''': Enforcer

*'''Forearms''': [[RICOCHET-class Mjolnir|Ricochet]]

*'''Legs''': [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit]]

==Trivia==

*In ''[[Halo 4]]'', Strider is one of four helmet-only armor sets alongside the [[LOCUS-class Mjolnir|Locus]], [[SCANNER-class Mjolnir|Scanner]], and [[DEADEYE-class Mjolnir|Deadeye]] helmets.

*In ''Halo 4's'' full body renders, and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', the Strider body armor is the same as the [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit armor]].

*In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' the Strider armor uses the upper body armor of the [[ENFORCER-class Mjolnir|Enforcer]] and the [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit]] leg armor.
