The Locus variant was manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]]. Tested at the [[Lethbridge Combat Fields]], the armor system is a contemporary stealth kit conceived specifically for tactical and strategic infiltration with focus on survivability and durability. Despite its exotic design, the primary differential from similar systems is its incredible durability in the field.<ref name="H4EVG"/><ref name="h4guide">[[Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Armor Types|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Armor Types: Locus'']]</ref> | The Locus variant was manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]].
