| [[Image:SpartanIII.jpg|thumb|200px|SPI Armor (unknown mark)]]'''Semi-Powered Infiltration Armor''', colloquially called "'''SPI Armor'''", was a armor system used by the [[UNSC]]. Though more advanced than the [[ODST]] [[Body Suit]]s, it was far less advanced and less powerful than the [[MJOLNIR Armor]]. However its main benefit was that it was drastically cheaper to produce than ]] super soldiers. It features [[Camouflage Cloak|special photo-reactive panels]] that mimic the surrounding textures, effectively the UNSC equivalent to the [[Covenant]] [[Active Camouflage]] systems. | | #REDIRECT [[Semi-Powered Infiltration armor]] |

| ==SPI Mark I==
| |
| SPI Mark I was used by the Spartan-IIIs of Alpha and Beta Companies from [[2531]] to [[2545]]. It featured hardened plates and photo-reactive panels. Though advanced compared to standard UNSC infantry armor, it could only take a few glancing blows before failing. It featured full body armor with a helmet and [[HUD]], and a supply of breathable atmosphere, though only for a few minutes compared to the [[MJOLNIR]] armor endurance of several hours. It is also equipped with a cushioning layer of liquid nanocrystals that provided more ballistic protection than three centimeters of Kevlar diamond weave without the bulk. It was worn by the Spartan-IIIs of Alpha and Beta Companies, as well as Gamma Company for a short time.

| ==SPI Mark II==
| |
| SPI Mark II was a more advanced version of the armor, with numerous upgrades. They had new photo-reactive coating to boost camouflaging properties. There were also numerous experimental refits to gel ballistic layers, upgraded software suites, and other functions. It was proposed in [[2537]], but the request was denied because the armor was over budget. It is weakest at the knees.

| SPI Mark II was used at first by the Drill instructors for Beta Company, but wasn't used by actual SPARTAN-III's until Gamma Company.
