The Mark V armor was a major upgrade from the previous version of MJOLNIR armor. With the inclusion of energy shielding, this iteration of MJOLNIR is extremely resistant to not just gunfire and explosions, but plasma weaponry as well. While [[John-117]] was field testing Mark V MJOLNIR on [[Reach]] in [[2552]], his armor's shields were not only able to take the hits from multiple 30mm chain guns, but it was also able to withstand the blast from a [[Scorpion missile]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]] - Definitive Edition''', ''pages 301-302, 304-305''</ref> | The Mark V armor was a major upgrade from the previous version of MJOLNIR armor.
