The Elite Combat Harness, also known as the Elite Default is a type of Elite body armor.

The Elite Combat Harness is the standard Harness of the Elite race. It is the equivalent to the UNSC MJOLNIR Armor, featuring a dynamic recharging Energy Shield. It is used by the majority of infantry ranks from Minor Elite to Zealot, each increasing in power, and comes in a variety of colors denoting rank. Some versions have Active Camouflage built in and others have flash lights. It will be an armor permutation in Halo 3 multiplayer. Bungie has confirmed all of the armor permutations have no effect on gameplay.
