The MJOLNIR CQC variant was the first of its kind to aid and improve the Spartans' effectiveness in close quarters combat.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc|[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]] (2011 edition)|Page=94}} The armor is designed for tactical, short range battles in urban areas, and as such the CQC variant offers an improved field of visibility and heavy ballistic protection. In addition, numerous sections of the helmet supports open-port conversion - this allows the user to add any type of compatible module to the helmet to further improve functionality, allowing a Spartan to adapt to changing mission conditions on the fly. The CQC's heavy pauldrons allow a soldier to swiftly and lethally close the gap between an enemy combatant despite being under fire. The CQC can be utilized for both military operations on urban terrain (MOUT) and boarding operations aboard ships which are comprised of tight, enclosed spaces.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} | The MJOLNIR CQC variant was the first of its kind to aid and improve the Spartans' effectiveness in close quarters combat.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc|[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]] (2011 edition)|Page=94}} The armor is designed for tactical, short range battles in urban areas, and as such the CQC variant offers an improved field of visibility and heavy ballistic protection.

The CQC variant was developed alongside the [[CQB-class Mjolnir|CQB variant]] by German-based [[Beweglichkeitsrüstungsysteme]] with a central focus on improving the wearer's survivability in close-quarter engagements.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}}<ref> | The CQC variant was developed alongside the [[CQB-class Mjolnir|CQB variant]] by German-based [[Beweglichkeitsrüstungsysteme]] with a central focus on improving the wearer's survivability in close-quarter engagements.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}}<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'' - Page 1 (2001 and definitive editions); page 15 (2010 edition)</ref> | ||
By the early [[2540]]'s, it was field-tested at the [[Special Warfare Center Essen]], in [[Unified German Republic|Deutschland]], and integrating feedback gathered from the [[Special Warfare Center Seongnam]], in [[Wikipedia:Korea|Korea]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} The CQC's [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mark IV]] variant entered service in 2548{{Ref/Game|Id=Armory| | By the early [[2540]]'s, it was field-tested at the [[Special Warfare Center Essen]], in [[Unified German Republic|Deutschland]], and integrating feedback gathered from the [[Special Warfare Center Seongnam]], in [[Wikipedia:Korea|Korea]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} The CQC's [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mark IV]] variant entered service in 2548{{Ref/Game|Id=Armory|HR|Armor permutations (Halo: Reach)|Armory|Detail=CQC - Helmet Description|Quote=Entered service in 2548; standard equipment for boarding actions and MOUT.}} and saw use among [[SPARTAN-II]] and [[SPARTAN-III]] soldiers. The CQC variant was further upgraded for use with the MJOLNIR [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V]] in [[2551]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} | ||
As late as [[2560]], the GEN1 CQC helmet could still be requisitioned by [[Spartan Operations|Spartans]], upgraded to be roughly equivalent to GEN3.{{Ref/Site|Id=CFParallel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/parallel-threads|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Parallel Threads|D=25|M=6|Y=2021}} | |||

Despite being surpassed by the CQB in overall integration, the CQC variant still retained popularity well after its production ceased.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=enc}} Many still prefer CQC's less traditional open-port conversion system to allow ad-hoc modification. Some Spartans continue to use CQC instead of the newer CQB because of the versatility and mobility the CQC provides.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} | Despite being surpassed by the CQB in overall integration, the CQC variant still retained popularity well after its production ceased.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=enc}} Many still prefer CQC's less traditional open-port conversion system to allow ad-hoc modification.
