ICARUS-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR [GEN2] armor.[1]
Overview
The helmet is designed around the practical needs and tactical challenges of dynamic, high-threat combat actuation within cluttered and complex aerospace kill boxes. The armor is laced with inertial compensation webbing so Spartans can survive the crushing combat acceleration of modern strikecraft.[1]
Development history
Icarus is one of the several armor system prototypes from Meyer e.V., tailored for hunter-killer operations in built-up areas, such as space habitats and arcologies.[2] Icarus is also the latest in a series of cutting-edge Mjolnir suits created for Spartan aerospace pilots.[1]
