RAIDER-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] developed by Imbrium Machine Complex.[2][3]
Overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The helmet has a 930-AV4 Class-2 Ankara tactical assault suite.[1] The helmet's design is considered "exotically feral". This makes the armor perceptibly imposing to those who encounter it, even for some elements within the Covenant.[4] The shoulders are composite-folded shield negotiators with fused venting for reactive thrust application.[4] The pauldrons also have a accession pauldron conduit for in-field modifications.[1] Its chest-plating is full mesh ceramic with flow contours for dissipative shielding and other defensive countermeasures.[4]
While the helmet's design is considered "exotically feral" on its own, it is made even more when paired with the visible dissonance of the Distorted skin.[4]
Development history[edit]
The Raider variant was developed by Imbrium Machine Complex. It was tested at Anakara Resiliency Chamber.[2] IMC representatives claimed that the armor's feral appearance was designed to weaken the morale of opposing forces.[2]
During the Fall of Reach, a Spartan team consisting of Spartans NOLA and NV66 was sent to acquire and protect data relating to improving MJOLNIR armor. The team was ultimately successful with this endeavor, and was able to send the data to a remote archival station for safekeeping. In 2557, the data was retrieved and discovered to be specifics on the Raider armor.[5]
Usage[edit]
Raider armor saw increased usage in War Games simulations, specifically within Oddball competitions.[1]
Even though the RAIDER helmets were crafted to be physically intimidating, their effectiveness is disputed.[6] The RAIDER-class armor, however, has become the unofficial standard for Spartans assigned to military police duties.[7]
