===''Halo 5: Guardians''===
By [[2525#November|November 2nd 2525]] a Mark IV Argus-class Mjolnir helmet was created. When the Spartan-IIs received their first Mjolnir armor, [[Linda-058]] was outfitted with the Argus variant.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series]]'''</ref> She was later outfitted with Mark VI Argus-class Mjolnir in [[2552#October|October 2552]].<ref>'''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' [[Terminal/Halo 2: Anniversary|terminals]]'''</ref>
Argus was introduced in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' as an [[Armor customization (Halo 5: Guardians)|armor permutation]] unlockable via the [[Requisition system]]. Like [[CENTURION-class Mjolnir|Centurion]] and [[HERMES-class Mjolnir|Hermes]], the armor acts as a faithful recreation of Linda-058's armor within ''Halo 5's'' campaign. It features one solitary skin: Arestor.
