They utilize jump packs on the battlefield and wear a strikingly obvious dark blue armor similar to the Ranger Elites of ''Halo 2''. Jump Pack Brutes made their first appearance in the level [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]] and appear as well in most ''[[Halo 3]]'' levels. They also appear in ''[[Halo Wars]]'', as an upgrade for standard Brutes, only available if the [[Brute Army Commander]] is the selected leader, and in [[Halo: Uprising]], onboard the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]].

Jump Pack Brutes are not extremely challenging in small numbers, though they can be overwhelming in large numbers, assuming the player knows what to do when you see them. It takes them a few seconds for them to land after being at the maximum height, so the player can easily look up and run under the Brute, then assassinate him when he lands. It is recommended you do NOT use an automatic weapon on them while they are soaring through the air. Also, on the level [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]], the Jump Pack Brutes have [[Trip Mines]], and placing one down under the spot where they are about to land is fatal to them.
