'''Semi-Powered Infiltration Armor''', colloquially called "'''SPI Armor'''", was an [[armor]] system used by the [[United Nations Space Command]]. Though more advanced than the [[ODST]] Ballistic [[Body Suit]]s, it was far less advanced and less powerful than the [[MJOLNIR Armor]] used by the [[Spartan-II]]s. Its main benefit was that it was drastically cheaper to produce than the MJOLNIR armor. This armor was designed with an emphasis on stealth rather than raw power.

Its main benefit was that it was drastically cheaper to produce than the MJOLNIR armor. This armor was designed with an emphasis on stealth rather than raw power. It features [[Camouflage Cloak|Special photo-reactive panels]] that mimic the surrounding textures, effectively being the UNSC equivalent to the [[Covenant]] [[Active Camouflage]] systems. It has been described as part legionnaire mail, part tactical body armor, and part chameleon by [[Tom-B292]] and [[Dr. Halsey]].<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]] page 16</ref> | ||
