After the first wave of [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2]] systems, based on requests of veteran [[Spartan-II]] and [[Spartan-III]] operatives, the [[UNSC Ordnance Commission]] considered reassessing a refined and upgraded version of the Grenadier suit.

All Grenadier armor types in the [[Armor | All Grenadier armor types in the [[Armor permutations (Halo: Reach)|Armory]] are unlockable in the game's purchase system via the use of [[Credits|cR]]. In ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'', the Grenadier set is attainable in the [[Season 1: Noble]] progression system. Due to its adoption from the customized armor of [[Jorge-052]], the Grenadier [UA] chest plate has his Spartan tag "052" written on the collar. | ||
