CQB Armor[1], officially known as Close Quarters Battle Armor, is a type of United Nations Space Command ground infantry body armor.

Not much is known about the armor except it will be an armor permutation in Halo 3 multiplayer.

Bungie has confirmed all of the armor permutations have no effect on gameplay. Due to the mix and match nature of CQB armor this may or may not be the full set of CQB armor.

Trivia

  • The CQB chestplate seems to look like a reinforced MJOLNIR chest plate and has a combat knife encased in it. IT also has a tube down at the bottom.
  • The CQB helmet bears some similarity to the ODST helmet. The main difference is that which it seems similar it has large cheek guards over the top of it, giving it a T shape. It also appears to have strong cross bracings on the top to protect the SPARTAN's head (similar in ways to roman legionairres). The extra protection and smaller visor would be ultimatly to protect the SPARTAN's head more in close combat situations.
  • The shoulder pads appear similar to that of the ODST troops in the halo 3 concept art on the halozune. They appear to be rather large and rounded and omit armor from the upper shoulder. [2]
