-*Sgt. Johnson will also be able to use VISR Mode in Firefight, however, he does not wear a helmet though.

-*VISR is similar to the night vision scope in the Halo 3 Sniper Rifle.
+*VISR is similar to the night vision scope in the Halo: Combat Evolved Sniper Rifle.
 *VISR seems to be more advanced then the Spartans heads up display as it has a vision enhancement mode to help see through low lighting, and an IFF system (able to tell friend from foe and important equipment) which Master Chief has none of the above so its odd to see more capabilities on a less advanced suit.
-*Its possible that VISR was one of the main things that Colonel James Ackerson was researching in his Special Forces projects that rivaled Halsey's Spartan program. This might be the reason why ODSTs have this system and Spartans don't another reason might be Spartans wouldn't need the vision enhancement mode due to there augmentations but if that was the case it still does not explain why they would not install a IFF system into there armor as that would help identify friendly personnel on the ground.

-*One possible but unlikely reason the Spartans don't have this system in Halo 2 and 3 was because it's new to ODSTs and besides from that the Mark VI armor was rushed to Cairo so they didn't get a chance or access to the system.
+*One possible but unlikely reason the Spartans don't have this system in Halo 2 and 3 was because it's new to ODSTs. Since the Mark VI armor was quickly produced, the system was probably never implemented.
