Template:Article Quote RECRUIT-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2). It is the standard armor for all newly recruited SPARTAN-IV personnel.[2][3]

Description

The reactor is covered by an "Class-A hardened reactor case". The shoulders are called "Common solid-plate pauldrons". There is a power conduit on the cuisse. The feet have segmented plates to increase mobility. The armor is designed to cope with the strain and duress experienced by newly augmented Spartan-IV.[1]

The standard color scheme for Recruit-equipped Spartans aboard UNSC Infinity consists of orange-yellow stripes at various points, most notably along the center of the helmet, though the suit remains largely unpainted.[note 1] Whether this color scheme is common among all recently inducted SPARTAN-IVs is unknown.

History

The Recruit variant was manufactured by Hannibal Weapon Systems and was tested at WG/Facility 93-00/Kotka, in Kotka, Pori on New Carthage. The Forearms were tested at FFG-045's combat lab. The greaves were manufactured on Chi Ceti IV. Newly inducted Spartans are required to use the Recruit-class armor for an individually determined time frame before requisitioning custom kits.[2] The armor's performance consistency raises eyebrows among the more experienced Spartans, however, and despite its popularity, many Spartan-IVs opt to diversify the armor with other variants.[1]

Spartans in the Recruit variant armor were sold as toys. One child had painted his Recruit Spartan action figure to resemble the Master Chief.[4]

Note

  1. ^ All SPARTAN-IV NPCs encountered in Halo 4 (both in the campaign and in Spartan Ops) wear Recruit armor with the aforementioned color scheme. Jared Miller of the ship's Spartan Command also wears Recruit armor with this color scheme in Spartan Ops' prerendered "talking head" vignettes.
