| '''MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Pilot''' is a [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]]-compatible version of the primary helmet used by [[UNSC Air Force]] pilots developed by [[Chalybs Defense Solutions]].{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}
| | It is an unlockable helmet in Halo: Reach and costs 90,000 cR.<ref name="armory"/> |

| ===Design details===
| | {{Quote|Happy friggin' Halloween!|In-game description}} |
| Intended for engagements in both atmospheric and exoatmospheric conditions, the helmet's primary advantages are its increased field of vision and its aerospace-oriented tactical software suite incorporated into the [[heads-up display]].{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}

|
| |
|
| ===Development history===
| | The Haunted Helmet is a variant of the Pilot helmet which has a transparent visor, showing a skull where the face should be. This helmet can be bought for 1 cR, but only after obtaining every other purchasable helmet base. You need to have earned roughly 1,400,000 cR to purchase every base helmet. The player also needs to have the Reclaimer rank to acquire the helmet.<ref>''[[Halo: Reach Official Strategy Guide]]''</ref> Because of the rank needed to buy this helmet, the Haunted helmet is currently used by [[Bungie]] employees in much the same way as the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/R variant|Recon]] armor in ''[[Halo 3]]''. |
| The Pilot helmet entered service in [[2541]] and was eventually adapted for use with all [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] armor systems, including [[Mark IV]] and eventually [[Mark V]]. It looks remarkably similar to the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/V variant|MJOLNIR EVA]] and [[Semi-Powered Infiltration Armor|SPI]] helmets.<ref name="armory">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref> While the similarities with the latter are strictly coincidental, the resemblance to the EVA helmet is a byproduct of Chalybs' collaboration with the [[Ganymede]]-based branch of the [[Materials Group]], leading to many similarities with the EVA variant's physical architecture.{{Ref/Reuse|evg}} | |

| |
| As [[Spartan Operations|Spartan]] pilots use flight gear similar to those used prior to their augmentation, the GEN1 Pilot helmet could still be requisitioned by Spartans for use with their GEN2 Mjolnir suits by [[2558]],<ref name="H5G1">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''' ''- Armory description''</ref> alongside the more modern [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Aviator|Aviator-class]] armor suite.<ref>'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 147''</ref> By 2558, the Pilot helmet was often fielded with an integral hardened uplink module and features classified updates to the UNSC Air Force-standard machine interlink firmware.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G1}}
| |
| | |
| ===Usage===
| |
| It was used by the select few [[SPARTAN-II]] and [[SPARTAN-III]] supersoldiers attached to the Air Force as pilots and combat controllers.{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}
| |
| | |
| In [[2558]] the Pilot helmet is still being used on posters in locations like the [[Promesa]] research center on [[Andesia]].

| During the testing releases of ''[[Halo Online]]'', an [[Armor customization (Halo Online)|armor set]] named Pilot was present. The set used the design of the [[OPERATOR-class Mjolnir]], as seen in ''[[Halo 4]]'' and ''Halo 5: Guardians''.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *If the Haunted helmet is worn during the level ''[[Noble Actual]]'', one will see the base of the skull in their helmet as they put it on.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWPou6zcAk8 '''YouTube:''' ''All Halo reach helmets in the first cutscene'']</ref> If it is worn during the final cutscene of ''[[Lone Wolf]]'', it will swap models with random helmets in between shots while it lies on the ground.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCujYu42vcQ&feature=related '''YouTube:''' ''Halo: Reach, Lone Wolf w/Haunted'']</ref>
| |
| *The Haunted variant of Pilot features a translucent visor, which gives the illusion of the skull itself changing its tint underneath when the player changes their visor color. This design element would not return in ''Halo Infinite's'' variant of Haunted.
