===Development history=== | |||
The MJOLNIR/EOD variant was originally created at the UNSC [[Damascus Materials Testing Facility]] on [[Chi Ceti 4]]. The EOD variant is speculated to have been developed in response to the death of [[Samuel-034]] (the first Spartan killed in action) in November 2525.{{Ref/Site|Id=Waypoint|D=14|M=03|Y=2011|URL=http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/video/the-mjolnir-project-2/46e89c1a-f619-41e2-ad7f-ab65c61ca2df|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=MJOLNIR 2|LocalArchive=The MJOLNIR Project}} | |||

The helmet has a pressure-resistant hardened rebreather unit. The reactor has alternating heat-tempered balance drives. The pauldrons are flow-distributing ceramic plates.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} The GEN2 kit also includes anterior torque couplings.{{Ref/Game|Id=H4LE|[[Halo 4 Limited Edition]]|Detail=[[Infinity Briefing Packet|''Infinity'' briefing packet]]}} | The helmet has a pressure-resistant hardened rebreather unit.

In [[2554]], Abilene's [[Naphtali Contractor Corporation]] took control over the EOD armor's production,{{Ref/Reuse|H4}} and adjusted the systems plate configuration to reduce the potential for dismemberment during explosive ordnance activity and facilitation.{{Ref/Site|Id=h4guide|URL=http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/9c6e4d8c-4060-4751-9f5d-a317fe7ec2c5/eod-|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo 4 Interactive Guide - Armor Types: EOD|D=23|M=4|Y=2013|LocalArchive=Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Armor Types}} It was tested at the [[Buffalo Breaker Yards]].

In the post-war era, the GEN1 version of the EOD helmet could be requisitioned by [[Spartan Operations]] personnel for use with their GEN2 Mjolnir suits.{{Ref/Game|Id=H5G|Game=H5G|What=Armor permutations (Halo 5: Guardians)|WhatText=Spartan Appearance Customization|Detail=EOD GEN1 - Helmet Description|Quote=The unique combination of safety and life support features in the EOD helmet make it an optimal choice for Spartan assault divers and pioneers who undertake demolition roles.

*The Caduceus emblem that appears on the Mark V EOD helmet also appears on med packs, Army medics, and the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Tactical#Tactical/Trauma Kit|Tactical/Trauma Kit]] armor permutation. This suggests that the EOD may also have an intended secondary role to provide medical assistance to wounded allies in dangerous situations. It's possible that there may be a non-MJOLNIR variant of the helmet for use by UNSC medical personnel, likely in toxic environments where the distinctive CBRN would aid in operations. | *The Caduceus emblem that appears on the Mark V EOD helmet also appears on med packs, Army medics, and the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Tactical#Tactical/Trauma Kit|Tactical/Trauma Kit]] armor permutation.
