A Point Defense Gauntlet is a protection orientated device carried by the Sangheili of the Covenant and later, the Separatists [1].

Operational Use

While the Point Defense Gauntlet has never been encountered by UNSC forces, it was used by Commander Rtas 'Vadumee during the destruction of the Infinite Succor. Instead of the triple-layered shield that at least one Sangheili has seen with, this was a diamond-shaped shield with only one layer.

These shields are very similar to the Kig-yar Point Defense Gauntlet, except the Kig-Yar Point Defense Gauntlets produce round and deep shields while the Sangheili version is flat and less practical in a battle.

This shield is singularly comparable to the Sangheili Personal Energy Shield.
