{{Quote|The Mk. IV [G] variant is an up-armored prototype based on the basic Mk. IV helmet.|''Halo: Reach'' armory description}}

The [G] variant served as the basis for all subsequent supplemental armor development programs and is compatible with later models such as the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V]]. The [G] variant served as a test bed for incorporating [[energy shielding]] technology with the MJOLNIR program,<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', ''Armory''</ref> though these test were not successful;<ref>[[Dr. Halsey's personal journal]]</ref> energy shielding had previously been tested by [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II]] [[Red Team]] in [[2531]].<ref>'''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide''', ''page 119'': ''"Energy shielding was a key feature of Mark V, although other Spartan squads had field-tested prototypes of this technology as early as 2531."'' This implicitly refers to Red Team, as the Grenadier variant did not enter service until 2535.</ref> [[Jorge-052]] wore a variant of the Grenadier helmet with the UA (Up-Armored) attachment, as well as the knee guards, left shoulder, and UA chest piece.
