'''GUNGNIR-class Mjolnir''', also designated as the '''MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/G variant''' on the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V platform]], is a [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]] variant originally designed by [[Misriah Armory]],{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} with the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2]] version being manufactured by [[Hannibal Weapon Systems]].{{Ref/Game|Id=H4|H4|Armor permutations (Halo 4)|Spartan Armor Customization|Detail=GUNGNIR Description}}
 
==GEN1 overview==
===Specifications===
The GUNGNIR helmet's visor is a "blast visor",{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} which is boxy and comes with more facial protection than any other helmet as it fully covers the front of the head and it replaces the usage of a visor with a small camera on the left that displays the outside to the user. It bears a white stripe running down the right side with the Norse symbol for Gungnir in the center.{{Ref/Game|Id=Armory|HR|Armor permutations (Halo: Reach)|Armory|Detail=GUNGNIR Description}} The helmet also has [[Wyrd optics suite|Wyrd III]] synchronized optimization which seamlessly connects the helmet to an [[M6 Spartan Laser]] to allow full access to the weapon.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} Project GUNGNIR also developed supplementary armor systems, including shoulder pauldrons and knee guards.{{Ref/Reuse|Armory}} The GUNGNIR helmet can be fitted with a [[AN/PZY-6011Y TYPHON]] remote sensor on either side of the helmet and a [[CBRN module#EOD-style module|CBRN module]].

===Development history===
{{Main|Project GUNGNIR}}
It was developed as a part of the [[Project GUNGNIR|GUNGNIR Program]] by a separate but parallel team, as a modification of existing Mjolnir variants optimized for the use of the [[M6 Spartan Laser]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The GUNGNIR program also produced several supplemental armor like pauldrons and knee guards.{{Ref/Reuse|Armory}}

===Usage===
The shoulder pauldrons and knee guards were employed on the cross-branch Battle Dress Uniform, which was adapted into the [[UNSC Army]] [[UNSC Army Battle Dress Uniform|BDU]], the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|BDU]], and a variant of the [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] [[ODST armor|armor]].{{Ref/Level|HR|Exodus}}{{Ref/Level|HR|The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn}}{{Ref/Game|Id=Campaign|HR|Campaign|Campaign models}}

==GEN2 overview==
===Specifications===
[[File:Halo4GUNGNIR.jpg|thumb|300px|The GEN2 armor with the Pulse skin.]]
The physical architecture of the GEN2 GUNGNIR body armor strongly resembles the [[COS-class Mjolnir]], which was tested on [[ANVIL Station]].{{Ref/Game|Id=Desc|MCC|''[[Halo 3]]'' [[Armor customization (Halo 3)|customisation]] menu}} The GEN2 GUNGNIR helmet, unlike its Mark V iteration, is round. Like the previous iterations, there is no visor, but the video camera has moved from the left side to the right side of the helmet. The helmet is less angular overall, and the front extends much less than its predecessor.

The helmet continues to have Wyrd III integrated video optics, though the helmet has enhanced cranial plating now. The chest has a centralized power-distribution capacitor(Servo L-903), and a breach-anchored collar system for in-field modification.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}

===Development history===
Continuing from the GEN1 variants, Hannibal acquired the rights to create a GEN2 variant. Hannibal then created and tested it at the [[WG/Facility 93-00/Kotka]].{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}{{Ref/Site|URL=http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/intel/inteldetail/bb4ff0de-bfd2-4ec2-a32c-fc4cd5da74e2/gungnir|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo 4 Interactive Guide - Armor Types: GUNGNIR|LocalArchive=Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Armor Types}}

===Usage===
Despite being considered an exclusive armor set, many Spartans have adopted GUNGNIR regardless of their weapon loadouts due to its isolated video optics, Wyrd III sensory optimization, and enhanced cranial plating. This was especially useful when operating at or near Covenant manufacturing sites, as it protected against intense flare radiometric conditions.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}

The GUNGNIR target acquisition and tracking system has been adapted into various UNSC weapon systems.{{Ref/Game|H5G|Armor permutations (Halo 5: Guardians)|Armor Permutations|Detail=GUNGNIR - Helmet Description}}

==Production notes==
*In [[List of references to Norse mythology in Halo|Norse mythology]], [[Wikipedia:Gungnir|Gungnir]] ("swaying one") is [[Wikipedia:Odin|Odin]]'s magical spear, which is an infallibly accurate weapon. The GUNGNIR helmet has only one video camera "eye" on one side of the face; in Norse mythology, Odin also had one eye. This is a theme of the Spartan armor systems as MJOLNIR is the name of Thor's hammer.
*During the [[Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta|''Halo: Reach'' Multiplayer Beta]], the final model for the GUNGNIR shoulder pauldron was designated as the [[EOD-class Mjolnir|EOD]] shoulder pauldron, and costed 1,000 [[Credits|cR]].{{Ref/YouTube|rRYRscwNMCY|haloinfectedX|Halo: Reach beta Armor (customizations)}}
*In pre-release ''[[Halo 4]]'' renders and the icon used to select the armor in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'', the forearms on the render were not available to be used in any release version of ''Halo 4''. These forearms would later used on the ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' GUNGNIR armor.
*The Dvalin skin for the GUNGNIR armor in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' is named after [[Wikipedia:Dvalinn|Dvalinn]], a dwarf who appears in several Old Norse tales and kennings on Norse mythology. Dvalinn is also listed as one of the four stags of Yggdrasill.
