Rangers use the  [[Assault Harness]], an oddity considering that its use was banned by treaties between the [[Prophets]] and the [[Elites]] at the close of the [[Sangheili-San 'Shyuum War]], giving them an advantage in combat. Once banned by the Prophets for its effectiveness, the fact that it was equipped to several Ranger units may indicate a willingness by the Elites, to ignore the Prophets' decree (or it simply could have been allowed by the Prophets as an exception, as a zero-gravity specialty troop would need an airtight helmet). Now that the Elites have left the [[Covenant]], the armor that makes Rangers so distinctive on the battlefield is  to be introduced into wider service. The [[Assault Harness]] allows activity even in exo-atmospheric environments, allowing Rangers to operate even in space for insertion, demolitions tasks<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]</ref> and protecting their wearers in areas where [[Flood]] infection is a threat.

Rangers also use an anti-gravity pack that allows temporary flight, giving the user unparalleled mobility through the air and also allows the user, to bypass traditional defenses.
