'''EVA-class Mjolnir''' (Extra Vehicular Activity), also designated as the '''MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/V variant''', is a type of [[United Nations Space Command]] body armor. The EVA armor is a variant of the standard [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] that specialized to improve survivability of [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] when performing [[extra-vehicular activity]] in vacuum.<ref name="goo">'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', page 57</ref><ref name="h3">'''[[Halo 3]]''' ''armor description''</ref>

One of a few MJOLNIR variants that remained under the [[Materials Group]] contract after the Human-Covenant War, the GEN2 EVA armor is similar to its GEN1 counterparts in its design. It remains the most effective option for Spartan personnel engaged in exoatmospheric and zero-gravity scenarios. It was tested in [[Swanbourne]], Australia on [[Earth]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/6a3b64b8-7ea0-48be-8535-40f2c4d45d4d/eva '''Waypoint''': ''EVA'']</ref>

The chest plate is a seemingly standard MJOLNIR chest plate set with a small and minor attachment. The attachment consists of a small metal plate connected to a piece of black alloy that has several unknown equipment pieces set into it. It has been speculated that the compartment on the chest plate holds a cable that could be attached to docking ports so that a [[SPARTAN-II]] does not drift into space.
