Template:Article Quote DEADEYE-class Mjolnir is a variant of MJOLNIR GEN2 manufactured by Hannibal Weapon Systems.[1]
Overview
Specifications
The suits are tailored to Spartan snipers, fitted with emissions cloaking, heavy-duty waste recycling, and redundant rebreathers for extended combat excursions in any environment.[3] While designed for extreme-range operations the suit still is functional in both mid and close range.[1] Deadeye can be optimized for extreme long-range target purging for the extreme end of sniper-oriented Spartan armor. With the smart-linked VISR software with movement-distance calibration, Deadeye has been updated to assist snipers at ranges that greatly exceed traditional firing accuracy.[1]
The helmet has an enclosed PZ-238 rebreather system. The VISR has a point-isolated, VISR focal software used for extreme-range targeting.[1] All Deadeye helmets also have a small piece of alloy from ships resting in the wreckage above Tribute's poles.[3]
Development history
Testing on an early prototype[4] of the DEADEYE suit was done on ANVIL Station in conjunction with Sangheili Rangers of the Swords of Sanghelios. These tests aimed to improve the suit's stealth capabilities.[2]
The Deadeye variant's final production run[4] was manufactured by Hannibal Weapon Systems. It was originally tested in Tribute's ship graveyard in Tribute's northern pole, and was designed for use by experienced Spartan marksmen.[5] During the testing the Spartans were placed in zero-gravity to affect long-range combat against exoatmospheric drones hidden among the wreckage.[1]
At some point in 2558, Spartan Kojo Agu tested another Deadeye prototype during a counter-piracy operation on Concord.[6]
Usage
Although Deadeye is rare in the field, the armor is highly regarded by its advocates.[1]

With the updated Halo 3 armor customization options, the players can now fit their Spartan with Deadeye helmet, chest, shoulders and legs. The description of the armor pieces are the same for every set.
