'''HUNTER-class Mjolnir''' is a prototype variant of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2 MJOLNIR powered armor]] manufactured by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Watershed Division]].

==Overview==
===Design details===
Intended to be lethal and sophisticated, the HUNTER suit incorporates the Watershed Division's latest warfighting technology. While a prototype, the Hunter variant's sensor suite—implemented in the armor's helmet—enhances situational and threat awareness to the user.{{Ref/Game|Id=H5|H5G|[[Armor customization (Halo 5: Guardians)|Armory]] description}}

The Hunter variant's bodysuit bears a set of patterns of glowing lines on the upper arms, chest, and the back, the latter of which begin at the upper thighs and connect at the nape.{{Ref/Game|H2A|Prologue & Epilogue}}

===Development history===
Designed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Watershed Division]], the Hunter variant was made to impress even jaded ONI bureaucrats.{{Ref/Reuse|fodder}}

===Usage===
A custom-made variant of the GEN2 Hunter armor was used by [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] [[Jameson Locke]] in 2558.{{Ref/Generic|Halo 5 Guardians Play Arts Kai (Spartan Locke) figurine|Detail=[[:File:MERCH PlayArtsKai Locke Description.jpg|File link]]}}{{Ref/Site|Id=Have S'moa|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-have-s-moa|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Have S'Moa|D=30|M=10|Y=2021}} By [[2560#May|May 2560]], during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], the [[Banished]] [[Jiralhanae]] [[Hyperius]] was in possession of Locke's Hunter helmet and chest piece, which he had mounted to his shoulder pauldron as trophies.{{Ref/Quest|HI|Graveyards|Pelican Down}} This fact was used by Banished propaganda officer [[Glibnub]] to taunt the surviving UNSC forces on [[Installation 07]], around the same time.{{Ref/Game|Id=HIBanComTowerHyperiusLocke|HInf|random [[Banished]] [[propaganda tower]] dialogue|Quote=Man, that Spartan Locke sure did know how to get ahead - which is why Hyperius used his helmet as arm decoration!|Quotee=[[Glibnub]]}} It is unclear how Hyperius came to possess these armour pieces, and Locke's fate is currently unknown.
