The Jump Pack Brute is a class of Jiralhanae (Brute) warriors.
On their ventral sides, they carry jump packs for increased mobility. They are the Brute counterpart to Elite Rangers, but unlike the Rangers, they are not capable of complete aerial tactical manuevering; rather, their jump packs propel them on an immense jump greater than even a Man Cannon can offer. They most commonly use Radar Jammers and Trip Mines, flying in and dropping them near their opponents. The Trip mines are used mostly in the second mission, Crow's Nest. Their Jump Packs do not break down with the rest of their Armor when heavily damaged, so they can continue their airborne assaults until they die. They replaced the Ranger Elites of Halo 2 after Elites became Separatists from the Covenant.
