Assault is a category of supplemental webbing configurations, typically designed for use with the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor in close to medium distance combat.[1]

Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

The Assault category commonly includes various pieces of chest- and wrist-mounted ammunition-carrying equipment compatible with MJOLNIR Mark V.[1]

Usage[edit]

Spartan-IIIs from NOBLE Team have been observed to employ Assault configurations. Carter-A259 employed the Assault/Commando chest configuration, while Emile-A239 employed the Assault/Sapper chest configuration as well as the Assault/Breacher wrist attachment. After the Human-Covenant War, the WRATH-class Mjolnir, being a partial recreation of Emile-A239's customized armor,[2] also featured the Assault/Breacher wrist attachment.[3]

In-game information[edit]
