===Development history===
The Raider variant was developed by [[Imbrium Machine Complex]]. It was tested at [[Anakara Resiliency Chamber]].{{Ref/Reuse|H4}} IMC representatives claimed that the armor's feral appearance was designed to weaken the morale of opposing forces.{{Ref/Reuse|H4}}


==Development history==
During the [[Fall of Reach]], a Spartan team consisting of Spartans [[SPARTAN NOLA|NOLA]] and [[SPARTAN NV66|NV66]] was sent to acquire and protect data relating to improving MJOLNIR armor. The team was ultimately successful with this endeavor, and was able to send the data to a remote archival station for safekeeping. In [[2557]], the data was retrieved and discovered to be specifics on the Raider armor.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/20245257-102f-4087-8413-6fa5b15a4901/raider|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=DECRYPTING SECTION 3 (UPDATED 11.15) Page 41}}

The base version of the Raider's samurai-inspired aesthetic is similar to that of the [[Project HAYABUSA|HAYABUSA armor]] from ''[[Halo 3]]''. The armor is acquired through ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' after completing the first three chapters of Episode One of [[Spartan Ops]] and entering a series of hidden codes.
