ARGUS-class Mjolnir is a MJOLNIR armor variant designed by the Office of Naval Intelligence's Watershed Division.[1]

GEN1 overview[edit]

Linda clad in Mark VI Argus armor while onboard Borneo Space Tether in 2552.

Development history[edit]

By October 2552, a Mark VI variant of the armor was available.[4]

Usage[edit]

When the Spartan-IIs received their Mark VI Mjolnir armor in October 2552, Linda-058 was outfitted with the Argus variant.[4]

GEN2 overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

The GEN2 Argus-class armor is the most advanced human-centric information fusion system ever placed in a mobile platform.[2] It has a sophisticated battlenet control node that provides situation and threat awareness in all environments. Argus-class Mjolnir also has highly advanced cyberlink connections and cyberintrusion software that helps it collect information.[3]

Development history[edit]

The GEN2 variant was developed by the Watershed Division.[1]

Usage[edit]

As of 2558, Linda-058 wore the GEN2 Argus suit.[1]

In-game information[edit]

Halo 5: Guardians[edit]

Argus was introduced as an armor permutation in Halo 5: Guardians. The helmet and body armor are unlockable as armor permutations through the Requisition system. The Argus set has one alternate skin, Arestor.

Trivia[edit]

  • The ARGUS-class MJOLNIR is named after Argus Panoptes, an all-seeing giant with one hundred eyes. This could also compliment the helmet's design, as it appears to have multiple types of optical equipment attached to it.
  • The Arestor skin is named after Argus' father.
  • All Argus armors in Halo 5: Guardians have "058" stenciled on the chest plate in Braille.
  • In the final version of Halo 5: Guardians, Linda's GEN2 Argus armor has the techsuit gloves in two colors (beige and orange), in the same two-tone coloring scheme as Kelly-087's Hermes (light silver and yellow) and Frederic-104's Centurion armors (pale blue and turquoise).
