Template:Armor Infobox Template:Article Quote The MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Venator is a variant of the GEN2 utilized by SPARTAN-IVs.[1].
Development history
The MJOLNIR/Venator variant was manufactured by Lethbridge Industrial as their flagship product.[2] The Venator armor gained prominence during the Covenant's attack on Concord for its improvement of user opportunity in hand-to-hand and single-enemy combat.[1] After the Requiem Campaign, Lethbridge Industrial improved the Venator's power management subsystem and reduced it's maintenance requierements. By October 2558, the armor's firmware incorporated a generalization of predictive targeting algorithms originally created to assist new Spartans in close-quarters combat.[3]
In-game information

- In Halo Online, the Venator armor is wrongly called "Stealth armor" instead.
- The three skins for Venator armor in Halo 5: Guardians are named after three types of gladiators.
- The helmet's "eye slits" are considered a visor (and thus customizable) in Halo 5: Guardians, rather than being glowing white lights as they are in Halo 4.
- In the Alpha build of Halo Online, the STEALTH-class Mjolnir armor uses the Infiltrator design but with glowing lights through it.
