In total, there are 17 armor sets included in ''Halo 3'', 12 of which for the SPARTAN-II character model and 5 for the Elite character model. These armor permutations are organized into three categories: ''Helmet'', ''Chest'' and ''Shoulder''. Certain armor permutations can only be unlocked by completing the game on certain difficulties, accumulating certain [[Gamerscore]], or by obtaining certain multiplayer-specific achievements. Some, such as [[RECON-class Mjolnir|Recon]] or the exclusive [[Bungie Armor]], have more esoteric unlock requirements, and can only be granted under certain conditions. Additionally, some Spartan armor sets only contain a helmet piece or chest piece, with no other associated armor selections. | In total, there are 17 armor sets included in ''Halo 3'', 12 of which for the SPARTAN-II character model and 5 for the Elite character model.
