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. | 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.

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. | In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'''s level [[ONI: Sword Base]], there are Easter egg "[[BOB]]" Elites featuring eight types of special white harnesses.
