MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Black: Difference between revisions

MJOLNIR: Black is superficially identical to the [[Mark VI]] variant. However, it features several unique internal design elements. The [[heads-up display]] has a field of view of nearly five kilometers, allowing extreme-range reconnaissance.<ref name="black195"/> Black Team's armor (the only known examples of the model) was colored black rather than the standard olive green, increasing the user's ability to hide in shadows. One arm hosts a device nicknamed the "[[Interrogator]]", featuring a built-in microphone, processor, and speaker for translation of [[Covenant]] languages to [[English]] and from English to Covenant speech.<ref name="black197">''Halo: Evolutions'', Blunt Instruments</ref> The armor is capable of carrying a seventh-generation [[smart AI]]. Black is the second known Mjolnir variant to feature recharging [[energy shielding]] as standard, following the [[Mark V]].  

Being a prototype, Mjolnir: Black features some flaws. It has trouble displaying exact altitude, making three-dimensional tracking difficult. The biofoam injectors are known to mistakenly set broken bones incorrectly.<ref>''Halo: Evolutions'', Blunt Instruments</ref>

Mjolnir: Black's faceplate is said to be reflective gray in "[[Blunt Instruments]]",<ref>''Halo: Evolutions'', Blunt Instruments</ref> but in ''[[Halo: Blood Line]]'' is shown as gold, even during a flashback to the [[Raid on Verge|events of the short story]]. The faceplate is also shown as gold in ''[[Halo: Escalation]]''.
