SCANNER-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] developed by the Materials Group.[1][3]
Overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The helmet is designed to sync/dock with the LCX-20V1 SinoViet sight-augmentation module for extreme-range reconnaissance. It does not mitigate operability, and can be slid back into a passive mode above the user's parietal plate. The helmet also has a low-set, concave rebreather apparatus.[1]
The helmet also includes several sensor capabilities and user-adjustable settings that are not yet compatible with standard VISR hardware.[4]
Development history[edit]
It was manufactured by the Materials Group and tested at the Damascus Testing Facility. Over several years, Materials was balancing out the needs of personnel for search-and-rescue operations, appropriately fine-tuning individual components like the long-range sensors and large toolsets like armor-fixed rescue implements.[1] It was designed for the facilitation of search-and-rescue strike teams protecting ONI personnel, as well as critical government and military personnel from capture by Insurrectionist forces.[5]
Usage[edit]
The armor is widely recognized as the best Mjolnir suit available for high-value target and hostage recovery operations.[2]
In-game information[edit]
Halo 4[edit]
Scanner was first introduced into the Halo games as an helmet in Halo 4. It is one of four helmet-only armor sets alongside the Locus, Strider, and Deadeye helmets. Subsequently, in Halo 4's full body renders, and Halo: The Master Chief Collection, the Scanner body armor is the same as the Recruit armor.
| Armor | Description | Unlock requirements (Halo 4) |
Unlock requirements (Halo: MCC) |
|---|---|---|---|
 Scanner |
Description (H4): Produced by the Materials Group primarily for search-and-rescue outfits. |
|
Unlocked by default. |
| Helmet description (MCC): Intended for use by combat search-and-rescue teams. |
Halo 5: Guardians[edit]
The Scanner helmet returns in Halo 5: Guardians. The helmet and body armor are unlockable as armor permutations through the Requisition system. The body armor includes the Soldier chest and shoulders, Recruit forearms, and unknown legs.
| Helmet | Description | Unlock requirements |
|---|---|---|
 Scanner (helmet) |
The SCANNER helmet features a number of sensor capabilities and user-adjustable settings that are not yet compatible with standard VISR hardware. | Ultra Rare REQ card |
 Scanner (body) |
The SCANNER is widely recognized as the best Mjolnir suit available for high value target and hostage recovery operations, though it is technically classified as a search-and-rescue variant. | Ultra Rare REQ card |
Production notes[edit]
Without the scope attachment, as shown in the concept art, the Scanner helmet would have bore a strong resemblance to the Mark V version of the Commando helmet, more so than the GEN2 version.
