| | #REDIRECT [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor#Mark I Prototype Exoskeleton]] |
| | |
| The Mark I powered exoskeletons were a precursor to the [[MJOLNIR]] armor project.
| |
| | |
| The armor allows the wearer to run at over thirty-two KPH, lift two tons, and have a 30mm minigun mounted on self-targeting armatures. They are equipped with motion sensors and IR scopes. The armor is impervious to standard light weapons. Nine people in powered exoskeleton suits can easily hold their own against two or three platoons of [[Marines]].
| |
| | |
| The model had to be scrapped and redesigned from the ground up for MJOLNIR. They consumed enormous energy. Either they had to be plugged into a generator or use inefficent broadcast power. Neither of these options were practical on a battlefield.
| |
| | |
| They used units of these that were not scrapped as dock loaders or to move heavy equipment. Some were even used for mining, then thrown into storage on [[Reach]].
| |
| | |
| After their augmentation procedures, [[Chief Petty Officer Mendez]] ordered the trainers of the [[Spartans]] to use powered exoskeletons when in combat exercises with them. Otherwise, the training may have killed those trainers, as evidenced by [[Master Chief|SPARTAN-117's]] accidental killing of three [[ODST|ODST's]] aboard the ''[[UNSC Atlas]]''. The Spartans easily overcame the cumbersome armor, however. The armor just did not match up to the superior speed and stealth of the Spartans.
