The [[Elite's|Sangheili]] armor generates a recharging energy [[shield]] (similar to the [[MJOLNIR]] shields) that protects against both ballistic fire and plasma weaponry; however after taking enough damage the shields will collapse and the Elite will be vulnerable to further attacks. Like [[MJOLNIR]] shields, this shield recharges after being depleted and can be enhanced by the [[Covenant]]'s [[Overshield|overshield]] technology. There appear to be differences in the strength of the shields, and different ranks of Elites have different amounts of power and recharge capacity in their shield.
