These Jiralhanae Chieftains are clad in ornate red and black armor, instantly recognizable by a large headdress. While it cannot take as much damage as the bronze, gold-colored armor worn by War Chieftains, it allows greater speed and mobility. Their [[Jiralhanae power armor|power armor]] cannot be stuck by [[Plasma Grenades]], [[Type-2 Antipersonnel Fragmentation Grenade|Spike Grenades]], or [[Needler]] projectiles. However, their armor can be stuck by [[Type-3 Antipersonnel/Antimateriel Incendiary Grenade|Incendiary Grenades]] and unarmored parts like the Chieftains' weapons, hands, and feet can be stuck by Spike and Plasma grenades.

Unlike the Power Armor worn by Jiralhanae of lesser rank, a Chieftain's armor does not fall apart once the shields are disabled. Additionally, their heavy helmets protect them from headshots, and it requires a handful of shots to the head from a precision weapon to knock off their helmet and leave them vulnerable to a fatal headshot.
