MIRAGE-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor derived from the Semi-Powered Infiltration armor.[2][1]

GEN1 overview

Design details

The MIRAGE armor takes the form of SPI suits designed for the SPARTAN-III program, upgraded to MJOLNIR standards intended to be employed by any Spartan generation. Once the standard helmet of SPI armor, MIRAGE-class Mjolnir makes use of an upgraded MIRAGE-class helmet. The gauntlets are designed as a refinement of the RIFT-class force amplification gauntlets. Overall, the suit is light and resilient, though considered not as robust as the MJOLNIR program's efforts. However, it is able to be manufactured at a fraction of the price while meeting the same basic performance requirements.[1]

MIRAGE IIC overview

Design details

In-keeping with the theme of cost-effectiveness, the Mirage IIC builds on the foundation of the GEN1 Mirage and Semi-Powered Infiltration armor program. By compromising the full range of GEN3 capabilities, it significantly reduces its cost, complexity, and the augmentation requirements of the operator for some helmets.[3] All this results in a multi-role powered assault armor that meets baseline GEN3 Mjolnir standards.[4]
