Compared to the similar [[ODST armor#MJOLNIR GEN2 variant|GEN2 ODST armor]], major differences include a [[data crystal chip]] port on the back of the helmet (much like those featured on the [[Mark V]] and later MJOLNIR iterations) and a camera integrated into the brim of the helmet (which consequently extends farther over the faceplate). The helmet's visor is retractable and contains a sophisticated [[VISR]] suite capable of identifying and analyzing objects in the environment.{{Ref/Film|Id=HNF|HNF}} The MJOLNIR iteration of the armour contains a [[AN/PZY-6011Y TYPHON]] Command Network Module on the side of the helmet.

In [[2558]], [[Michael Crespo]] wore an older suit of ODST armor from the early [[Human-Covenant war]], which apparently had an exoskeleton installed in it. It was noted to be significantly less capable than MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor.{{Ref/Novel|HBadB|Chapter=17}}. This armor may be an early iteration of Nightfall armor.
