 In addition to its life support role, it is equipped with armor. This armor can withstand limited amounts of fire, especially from energy weapons. The [[M6D]] is capable of easily cracking through the armor and is considered by some to be the standard weapon for such actions.<ref name="Flood"/> The armor piercing rounds of the [[Assault Rifle]] are also potent weapons against the harness. As well as defending against projectiles and [[plasma]], it prevents a limited amount of fall damage to its user, like its [[Sangheili Combat Harness|Sangheili counterpart]]. Despite this, most variants are vastly inferior to the other types of armor adorned and used by the [[Covenant]], no doubt due to the costs required to produce the suits for the extremely large population of Unggoy soldiers. Some variants are also equipped with helmets, [[Active Camouflage]] and a methane-filled breathing apparatus.

-*The visual appearance of the Unggoy Combat Harness has changed considerably every time it has appeared in fiction; this has led to confusion as to whether or not these are separate variants or if the differences are simply aesthetic in nature. In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', there was a variant with a partially curled-back methane tank, along with a bigger face mask. This variant is commonly referred to by fans as "Curl-backs". This variant is absent in newer titles. In ''Halo Wars'', the Grunts used a cylindrical-back methane tank, along with a goggle-equipped mask.
-*It has been shown that in ''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'' the breathing mask of the Unggoy makes speech difficult for them, as it muffles their words.
-*The upcoming game ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' will introduce new Unggoy Combat Harness, each featuring different methane tank and mask designs.
