| ==Overview==
| |
| [[Sangheili harness]]es that may be rated Ultra-class include the silver-colored [[combat harness]],<ref name="H2A">'''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'''</ref> the ''Bausatti''-pattern raid harness,{{Ref/Book|Id=EN|Enc22|Page=201}}<ref name="HR">'''[[Halo: Reach]]'''</ref> the [[Lights of Sanghelios|Honor Guard Ultra]] ceremonial armor,{{Ref/Reuse|H2A}} the silver-colored Zealot ceremonial battle harness,<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 15|Issue 15]]''</ref> the silver-colored [[Storm harness]],<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics/canon-fodder-4-8-16-looking-glassed/3ddfb765-8fd2-4f0b-9439-0feb80adf88e/posts?page=2#post23 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Thread: Canon Fodder 4-8-16: Looking Glassed'']</ref> and the silver Commander-class harness.<ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref>

| [[Unggoy combat harness|Unggoy harnesses]] also comprise a variety of Ultra-rated suits: the silver-colored base combat harness (usuable by [[Unggoy Ultra|Ultras]], and less frequently by [[Unggoy Major|Majors]]),{{Ref/Reuse|H2A}}<ref name="HSA">'''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]'''</ref> the harness for the Unggoy Ultra rank,{{Ref/Reuse|HR}} the [[Special Operations Unggoy|SpecOps]] harness (also usable by Ultras),{{Ref/Reuse|H2A}} and the [[Unggoy Bodyguard|Bodyguard]] harness.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
| |
| | |
| Other species also have access to Ultra-class armor, such as the [[Yanme'e]],<ref name="ODST">'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'''</ref> and the [[Mgalekgolo]].{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}
| |
| | |
| Curiously, [[Jiralhanae]] of Ultra ranks—[[Jiralhanae Ultra|Ultras]], [[Jiralhanae Captain Ultra|Captain Ultras]], and [[Jiralhanae Jumper|Jumper Ultras]]—do not wear silver-colored [[Jiralhanae power armor|armors]], instead sporting blue or golden armors. Some [[Yanme'e Ultra]]s may also wear green armor, instead of their silver-colored exoskeleton. Thus, not all Covenant who wear Ultra-class armor are Ultras, and not all Ultras wear an Ultra-class armor.
| |
| | |
| In the [[Spartan-IV]]s' [[Warzone]] combat training, Mythic Covenant bosses sport a white Ultra-class armor, and are the toughest Covenant AIs in the simulation.{{Ref/Reuse|Hints}}<ref name="Hog">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/the-hog-wild-req-drop '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Hog Wild REQ Drop'']</ref>

| ==Production notes==
| |
| In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'''s level [[ONI: Sword Base]], there are Easter egg "[[BOB]]" Elites featuring eight types of special white harnesses. Since the golden Sangheili Ranger BOB has been canonized into the [[Sangheili Ranger Commander]] and a number of the white BOB harnesses also exist in-universe, it is possible all said harnesses also exist canonically.
