The Operator variant is available for the MJOLNIR (GEN2) armor system. It optimizes a [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] for the operation and control of vehicles. The armor utilizes the Wheelman armor mod which draws more stamina and durability out of a vehicle that's being operated by the spartan.<ref name="Bulletin 8.15.2012"/> | |||
