The MJOLNIR Mark V, Model III armor has no major changes from prior Mark V armor sets, but does incorporate numerous incremental advances over previous models. The Cortana AI used in John’s armor has superhuman computer hacking skills and also serves as a valuable real-time information and intel processing service for the wearer. John-117’s variant of the MJOLNIR-II armor includes a new layer of circuitry in the liquid crystal mesh that allows the suit to carry an AI nearly equivalent to the powerful AIs that run starships. The MJOLNIR Mark V, Model II armor has all of the MJOLNIR-I’s abilities. It adds a skin-tight force field adapted from Covenant technology that enhances the armor’s durability. However, the MJOLNIR’s strength and agility came at a price. The new armor moved so quickly and powerfully that it would fatally harm normal human beings who tried to wear the suit before they had time to learn to control its movements. The only people who were durable enough to withstand the physical stress of using the armor were the enhanced Spartans.

The armor is climate-controlled, shielded against radiation and EMP, and can recycle its internal air supply for 90 minutes, allowing the wearer to work unhindered in vacuum.Īdditional integral equipment includes thermal sensors, motion detectors, and encrypted radio systems, the readouts of which are incorporated into their helmets’ HUDs. The HUDs also add Friend-or-Foe visual tags to UNSC personnel and equipment broadcasting the appropriate signals, making it easier for Spartans to distinguish friendly forces from enemies in chaotic circumstances. The MJOLNIR Mark V, Model I, power armor has protective mechanisms that dampen physical impacts and refract energy attacks. Its fractal liquid crystal mesh doubles the wearer’s strength and boosts the wearer’s reflexes by a factor of five.
