 *The ODST armor is derived from the first concept of the MJOLNIR armor. This original concept done by artist [[Shi Kai Wang]] was scrapped because it made the [[John-117|Master Chief]] look "too mean."<ref>'''[[The Art of Halo 3]]'''</ref>

-*The armor used by the ODSTs in ''Halo 3: ODST'' is the same as the suit used in ''Halo 3'', despite the game taking place during the events of ''Halo 2''. This suggests that the changes between the games are merely aesthetic and that there is no canonical difference between the ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3''-era suits.
+*The ODST armor worn by [[Unnamed Shock Trooper Squad|the squad]] in ''Halo 3: ODST'' have the exact same scratches and burns. All the male members of the team wear the exact same armor with different colors and "Add-ons". This is easy to see if you pay attention to the chest plate, they all have the same scratches.{{fact}}

+*The fact that ODST chest armor is able to withstand a blow from the blade of a Gravity Hammer being wielded by an enraged Brute Chieftain (although the wearer suffered a punctured lung) is a testament to the toughness of this armor compared to normal marine armor which could never survive a blow like that.
