 Completed, the MJOLNIR battlesuit is a multilayer suit constructed in overlapping layers. It is a sealed system, capable of [[extra-vehicular activity]] or operations in toxic atmosphere and vacuum. It is hardened against [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] and radiation, and has filters that are completely effective at removing toxins and bacteria from local atmosphere.<ref name="xbox">'''[http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/h/halo/spotlight2.htm Master Chief's Armor: An Overview]'''</ref><ref group="note">The reference, ''Master Chief's Armor: An Overview'', was posted on xbox.com before the release of ''Halo: Combat Evolved''.
