*The ODST armor is derived from the first concept of the MJOLNIR armor, this original concept done by artist [[Shi Kai Wang]] was scrapped because it made the [[John-117|Master Chief]] look "too mean". The helmet serves to distinguish the ODSTs from regular [[UNSC Marine Corps|marines]].<ref>''[[The Art of Halo 3]]''</ref>

*The visor's ability to polarize, the [[VISR]] mode, and the HUD it displays may mean it has a transparent Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) screen coating it. 
*Some have speculated that the [[Black Body Suit|vacuum-enabled body suit]] used by the young Spartans on [[Eridanus Secundus]] and various other missions - before they recieved their [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]] - is the same suit that the ODSTs wear, but this is merely speculation, and has never been confirmed. The vast differences between them strongly suggest that they are not the same suit. For example, while the body suits in ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach|The Fall of Reach]]'' were so form-fitting that the Spartans could fit coveralls over them, the ODST armor is almost as bulky as the MJOLNIR.

*It should be noted that the armor used by the ODSTs in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' is similar to the one seen in ''Halo 3'', despite the game taking place during the events of ''Halo 2''. This suggests that the changes between the games are merely aesthetic and that there is no canonical difference between the Halo 2 and Halo 3-era suits.
