The '''MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN3]''' is the third system-wide generation of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]].{{Ref/Book|Id=HOSFMP10P179|OSFM|Page=179}} As of [[2560]], Generation 3 MJOLNIR has been adopted by nearly all active [[Spartan]]s serving in the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/the-new-halo-encyclopedia-is-out-today|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=The New Halo Encyclopedia is Out Today|D=11|M=03|Y=2023}}
The '''MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN3]''' is the third system-wide generation of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]].<ref name="HOSFMP10P179">''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', PART 10: THE SPARTAN ARMORY, Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor, p. 179</ref>

===Design and features===
===Early history and development===
The conceptual design framework incorporates lessons from the MJOLNIR [GEN2] line of Mjolnir, while also using performance and higher levels of protection given by the [[MJOLNIR_Powered_Assault_Armor#First_generation|MJOLNIR [GEN1]]] line of Mjolnir.{{Ref/Reuse|HOSFMP10P179}} Subsequently GEN3 weighs twice as much as GEN2 at 400 kilograms.{{Ref/Reuse|SOR1}}
Although the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)]] meant a radical simplification of the Mjolnir platform, to the point it could be mass-produced, some in the [[Spartan Operations]] branch were dissatisfied with its minimal performance improvement over the old GEN1 systems. By that reason, the UNSC decided to manufacture the next generation of Mjolnir armors.<ref>''Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual'', PART 10: THE SPARTAN ARMORY, Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor, p. 178</ref>


The armor features a survival mode that can keep the occupant alive for at least six months in the vacuum of space with no food, water, or other things vital to life aside from the suit's oxygen supply. After a burst of power was used by [[Fernando Esparza]] to bring [[John-117]]'s armor out of survival mode, the armor's fusion reactor almost instantly recharged ''[[Echo 216]]'s'' depleted batteries in return, restoring functioning to the Pelican's internal lights and systems.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Warship Gbraakon|Hi|Ringfall|Warship Gbraakon}} John later told [[the Weapon]] that the next thing that he remembered after getting thrown into space was waking up on the Pelican six months later, suggesting that he had been kept unconscious by the armor for the entire time.{{Ref/Quest|Id=The Sequence|Hi|Reformation|The Sequence}} The GEN3 [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VII|Mark VII]] armor, even in a damaged and failing state, combined with his augmentations, kept Spartan [[Tomas Horvath]] from dying of exposure when he was comatose for a day on a mountainside.{{Ref/Novel|RP|39}} After Horvath was impaled and severely wounded by an alloy shard between his intestines and spleen, his biomonitors kept him in a semicomatose state while the armor's medical systems regenerated his torn insides, and the armor kept him alive until he could hunt for food using its emergency high-calorie nutrient supplements.{{Ref/Novel|RP|22}}
Around [[2558#October|October 17, 2558]],<ref name="HOSFMDate">''Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual'', PART 01: INTRODUCTIONS, Note from Captain Lasky, p. 11</ref> the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VII|Mark VII]] was used as the testbed for the [GEN3] improvements, but it remained uncertain if manufacturers would adopt the standards and cost accounting by the [[Unified Earth Government]].{{Ref/Reuse|HOSFMP10P179}}


Unique to the GEN3 variant of the Mark VI armor, John-117's armor contained holographic emitters in the palm of the hand, allowing him to display an avatar of [[the Weapon]] over his hand, a feature not previously seen with his GEN1 and GEN2 suits while he was working with Cortana. The Weapon was able to transfer herself directly into systems by having her hologram walk off of the armor's hand and into the terminal in question.{{Ref/Reuse|Hi}}
On [[2559#February|February 10, 2559]], four months after the rise of [[Cortana]] and the [[Created]], the [[Materials Group]] manufactured the [GEN3] armor.{{Ref/Reuse|DH}} The [[Swords of Sanghelios]] too are involved in the manufacture of GEN3 armors like the GEN3 Anubis which they built in their assembly forges. On [[2559#October|October 7, 2559]], [[John-117]] and [[Blue Team]] were deployed on a [[Operation: WOLFE|covert mission]] to [[CASTLE Base]] using GEN3 armor.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Shadows of Reach|Chapter=1}} Several months later on [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], the armor was used by John-117 during a [[Installation 07 conflict|conflict]] on [[Installation 07]].{{Ref/Game|HI|trailer|Detail=[[Halo Infinite Campaign Gameplay Premiere|Campaign Gameplay Premiere]]|Id=Premiere}}{{Ref/Game|Id=Hi|Hi}}


John-117's armor displayed the ability to remotely link to the systems of ''Echo 216'' and then activate the ship's autopilot at his request to fly to a chosen destination.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Foundation|Hi|Ringfall|Foundation (Halo Infinite)}}

===Design and features===
The conceptual design framework incorporates lessons from the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR [GEN2]]] line of Mjolnir, while also using performance and higher levels of protection given by the [[MJOLNIR_Powered_Assault_Armor#First_generation|MJOLNIR [GEN1]]] line of Mjolnir.{{Ref/Reuse|HOSFMP10P179}}


It was possible for the users to effect field repairs by removing and reconfiguring some of the plating to compensate for the damage, but the sheer weight of each piece and the complexity of the process was a severe limitation without the right equipment.{{Ref/Novel|RP|38}}
The GEN3 armor used by the Master Chief in [[2559]]<ref name="BSI">''Halo Infinite'', [[Step Inside]]</ref> looks aesthetically similar to a [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|MJOLNIR [GEN1] Mark IV]] armor variant used by some SPARTAN-II commandos during [[Operation: WARM BLANKET]], while the helmet shares similarities with the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|MJOLNIR [GEN1] Mark VI]] helmet he used during the last months of the Human-Covenant War.{{Ref/Reuse|DH}}


It contained a [[distress beacon]] capable of signaling UNSC forces in range.{{Ref/Level|Id=tower|HINF|The Tower}}
The baseline GEN3 model is inspired by the first-generation Mark V platform used by SPARTAN-II and SPARTAN-III operatives before the Fall of Reach.
===Development history===
[[File:HINF-SI-Mk VI assembly.png|thumb|200px|right|MJOLNIR Mk VI variant being assembled and marked.]]
Although the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)]] meant a radical simplification of the Mjolnir platform, to the point it could be mass-produced, some in the [[Spartan Operations]] branch were dissatisfied with its minimal performance improvement over the old GEN1 systems. By that reason, the UNSC decided to manufacture the next generation of Mjolnir armors.{{Ref/Book|OSFM|Page=178}}


Around [[2558#October|October 17, 2558]],{{Ref/Book|Id=HOSFMDate|OSFM|Page=11}} the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VII|Mark VII]] was used as the testbed for the GEN3 improvements, but it remained uncertain if manufacturers would adopt the standards and cost accounting by the [[Unified Earth Government]].{{Ref/Reuse|HOSFMP10P179}}
The GEN3 model includes the [[Grappleshot]] invented by a civilian engineer.<ref>''Halo Infinite'', [[Project Magnes (trailer)|Project Magnes]]</ref>


On [[2559#February|February 10, 2559]], four months after the rise of [[Cortana]] and the [[Created]], the [[Materials Group]] began to manufacture GEN3 armor.{{Ref/Reuse|DH}} The [[Swords of Sanghelios]] have also become involved in the manufacture of some material for the GEN3 platform, such as the [[ANUBIS-class Mjolnir|Anubis-class]] helmet, which is "grown" within Sangheili assembly forges.{{Ref/Site|Id=CFParallel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/parallel-threads|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Parallel Threads|D=25|M=6|Y=2021}} While not strictly part of the GEN3 platform, the GEN1 Mark V[B] platform and its variants have been refit to be roughly equivalent to newest generation. Though this technology dates back to the Covenant War, it has been fully reconditioned and upgraded with newer and more optimized components, giving life to older technology at an integral time, and offering a new generation of Spartans the opportunity to take to the battlefield outfitted in the same style of armor that some of their own heroes once donned.{{Ref/Game|Id=HI|HINF|Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|Armor Hall|Detail=Mark V [B] armor-core - armor Description|Quote=Battle-tested and technically refined, refit MARK V [B] suits remain a popular chasis for Spartans assigned to UNICOM/SPECWAR.}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFParallel}}
The armor features a survival mode that can keep the occupant alive for at least six months in the vacuum of space. After a burst of power was used by [[Fernando Esparza]] to bring [[John-117]]'s armor out of survival mode, the armor's fusion reactor almost instantly recharged ''[[Echo 216]]'s'' depleted batteries in return, restoring functioning to the Pelican's internal lights and systems.{{Ref/Reuse|Hi}}


On [[2559#October|October 7, 2559]], [[John-117]] and [[Blue Team]] were deployed on a [[Operation: WOLFE|covert mission]] to [[CASTLE Base]] using the GEN3 Mark VI armor.{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR1|HSoR|Chapter 1}} During a subsequent battle in New Mohács, Spartan IVs in GEN3 were deployed by drop pod.{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR2|SoR|Chapter 16}}
At the very least, John-117's armor contains holographic emitters in the palm of the hand, allowing him to display an avatar of [[the Weapon]] over his hand, a feature not previously seen with his GEN1 and GEN2 suits while he was working with Cortana.{{Ref/Reuse|Hi}}
Several months later on [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], the armor was used by John-117 during a [[Battle for Zeta Halo|conflict]] on [[Installation 07]].{{Ref/Marketing|HINF|Ad=Halo Infinite Campaign Gameplay Premiere|Id=Premiere}}{{Ref/Game|Id=Hi|Hi}}
 
In the wake of the [[Created uprising]], there were certain places where the GEN3 armor wasn't, or simply couldn't have been, rolled out. As a result, the GEN3 Mjolnir had yet to see full implementation in the [[Spartan Operations|Spartan branch]], with some Spartans still using the GEN2 Mjolnir by late 2559.{{Ref/Site|Id=CFConcert|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-concert-of-words|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - CONCERT OF WORDS|D=25|M=9|Y=2023}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=Out|Out}}

*'''[[Hydrostatic gel]]:''' On top of the inner skinsuit is a gel-filled layer, which regulates the temperature of the suit and can change its density to conform to the wearer's shape. The temperature inside the suit is controlled by the moisture absorbing cloth suit underneath the hydrostatic layer. The hydrostatic gel layer can also be pressurized to various levels to potentially save the wearer's life should the wearer be subjected to high G forces or a high velocity impact. Spartans in Gen 3 can avoid blacking out in conditions up to 38 g.
