Jiralhanae Jumpers wear a specialized variant of [[Jiralhanae power armor]], fitted with [[jump pack]]s for increased mobility.

Instead, their jump packs propel them in one jump at a time across a great distance.<ref name="HE145">'''Halo Encyclopedia''', ''page 145''</ref> | Jiralhanae Jumpers wear a specialized variant of [[Jiralhanae power armor]], fitted with [[jump pack]]s for increased mobility.

They were occasionally armed with [[radar jammer]]s, [[flare]]s and [[TR/9 trip mine|trip mines]], flying in and dropping them near their opponents.
