'''OPERATOR''' refers to two distinct variants of [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|Mjolnir armor]]. The GEN1 Operator variant, originally designed by [[Chalybs Defense Solutions]],{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} was designed for special forces within [[Beta-5 Division]]'s [[Asymmetrical Action Group]]; while the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2]] permutation designated Operator, manufactured by the [[Naphtali Contractor Corporation]], is optimized for the operation of vehicles.{{Ref/Game|Id=H4|Game=H4|Section=Armor permutations (Halo 4)|SectionLinkText=Spartan Armor Customization|Detail=Operator Description}}  

===Specifications===

The [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V]] variant of the armor was designed for use by [[Spartan]] operators within the [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] [[Beta-5 Division]]'s [[Asymmetrical Action Group]] (AAG).{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}}{{Ref/Reuse|Id=Armory}} The standard version of the helmet features a B5D-O/Optics suite,{{Ref/Reuse|Id=EVG}} which is mounted on the forehead. The UA/HUL variant replaces the standard optics suite with an [[Armor accessories/UA|up-armor plate]] featuring a [[External Hardened Uplink|Hardened Uplink Module]] on the left side. Another variant, which is issued to unit commanders,{{Ref/Reuse|Id=Armory}} features [[External Command Network Module|Command Network Module-Improved]] on the right side. The Operator systems's shoulder pauldrons are simply armored bands mounted on the user's base shoulder guards, with two string-like attachments descending from the bottom. There is a geometrical pattern emblazoned on the plate as well.

After the first wave of [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2]] systems, based on requests of veteran [[Spartan-II]] and [[Spartan-III]] operatives, the [[UNSC Ordnance Commission]] considered reassessing a refined and upgraded version of the Mark V [[EVA-class Mjolnir]], specifically the customized suit worn by [[Emile-A239]] complete with the death's head engraving on the visor. This led to the creation of the [[WRATH-class Mjolnir]] with the left shoulder pad based off the Mark V Operator's shoulders.{{Ref/Site|Id=CF:Noble|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-noble-intentions|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder 5/6/2016: Noble Intentions}}  

Following the Human-Covenant War, the GEN1 Operator helmet has been forced out of its former secrecy within Beta-5. Available in limited numbers with [[Spartan Operations]] personnel, the helmet can be requisitioned for use with the Spartans' GEN2 armor.{{Ref/Game|Game=H5G|Section=Armor permutations (Halo 5: Guardians)|SectionLinkText=Spartan Appearance Customization|Detail=Operator [GEN1] Description}}

The reactor of the GEN2 version of the OPERATOR armor is a low-set reactor pack. The helmet has a PV-20, which is a set of dual-locked rebreathers generally worn by [[pilot]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=H4EVG}} The visor has an open visor view-plate for increased range of spectrum, with sensor fusion software that ties the info into the visor to be finalised.{{Ref/Game|Id=H5G|Game=H5G|Section=Armor permutations (Halo 5: Guardians)|SectionLinkText=Spartan Appearance Customization|Detail=Operator Description}} The chest has external harness bracers. Twin-release cables on the chest route energy expenditure to reserve systems.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=H4EVG}}

Operator armor has proven itself an adaptable combat ensemble in Spartan service, utilized by both pilots and force reconnaissance operatives.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=H5G}} Spartan-IV [[Carlo Hoya]] of [[Fireteam Majestic]] wore the Operator armor during [[Requiem campaign]].{{Ref/Game|H4}}
