ARDENT-class Mjolnir, or the Mk. IV/A helmet, is a MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor helmet variant, designed for the MJOLNIR Mark IV platform.[1]

Overview

Design details

The Ardent helmet is compatible with the TAS/FES/BRONTES attachment, which consists of a field-expedient combination of spare parts, Office of Naval Intelligence "BRONTES" firmware, and reused up-links designed by the Smart AI Isabel. The attachment provides the equipped Spartans with a direct connection to the UNSC Spirit of Fire's targeting array.[2]

Development history

The Ardent helmet was developed aboard the UNSC Spirit of Fire, combining components forged on Installation 00 with traditional UNSC minifacturing.[1]

Usage

At some point, Spartan-II August-099 of Omega Team wore an Ardent helmet.[3][Note 1]

In-game information

Note

  1. ^ 343 Industries noted in a Canon Fodder post that both the concept art and the final Halo Wars 2 in-game models of Omega Team could be considered authoritative in some capacity, stating that "Discerning lore-lovers should feel free to consider both iterations fair game for expanding their imaginations." Furthermore, the 2022 edition of the Halo Encyclopedia utilizes said concept art for its depiction of Omega Team, firmly cementing their armors' canon status.
