Developed by the [[Naphtali Contractor Corporation]], the Orbital variant was tested and was the first to survive the [[Buffalo Breaker Yards]] testing site. This granted some models of the helmet a distinct skull emblem, known as the "Mark of the Breaker", on the visor. | Developed by the [[Naphtali Contractor Corporation]], the Orbital variant was tested and was the first to survive the [[Buffalo Breaker Yards]] testing site.

''' | Orbital was first introduced into the ''Halo'' games as an [[Armor customization (Halo 4)|armor set]] in ''[[Halo 4]]''. The armor has two available skins: Aeon (AEON) and Swift (SWFT). As with all ''Halo 4'' armor, the skins were not included in the initial release of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', though the release of ''Halo 4'' on PC and the start of [[Series 4: Reclaimer]] saw the skins added into the collection as default unlocks. | ||

''' | The Orbital set returns in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''. The helmet and body armor are unlockable as [[Armor customization (Halo 5: Guardians)|armor permutations]] through the [[Requisition system]]. The body armor is not a fully-original design, and as such includes a number of supplementary ''Halo 4'' pieces—primarily the [[Twin-plated]] forearms and [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit]] legs. The Orbital set has three alternate skins: Perihelion, Aphelion and Equinox. | ||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
The skins in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' all refer to positions of planets in relation to the sun. Perihelion is closest, aphelion is farthest, and an equinox is when day and night are equal in length. | |||
