COPPERHEAD-class Mjolnir is a MJOLNIR armor variant designed by the Watershed Division.[1]

OverviewEdit

Design detailsEdit

The suit is equipped with interior systems to exploit the complex "terrain" of human and alien societies.[1] Olympia Vale's Copperhead armor weighed approximately 400 kilograms.[2]

Development historyEdit

Designed by the Office of Naval Intelligence's Watershed Division. Copperhead armor was built and designed from the very beginning to be used in covert operations and other "special activities".[1]

Equipped with interior systems to exploit the complex "terrain" of human and alien society, the origin of the Copperhead armor's "militarized anthropology" decision support system originates from innovative tools created by Colonial Administration Authority field teams that operated in the Insurrection.[1]

UsageEdit

The armor variant is rarely seen as it is closely guarded by ONI's direct action teams and personnel require high levels of clearance to even review maintenance logs.[1]

Spartan Olympia Vale used this armor in 2558.[1]
