Template:Armor Infobox Template:Article Quote SCANNER-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2) developed by the Materials Group.[1]

Overview

The helmet features an SV module called the "LCX-20V1 SinoViet sight-augmentation module" for extreme-range reconnaissance. It does not mitigate operability, and can be slid back into a passive mode above the user's parietal plate. The helmet also has a low-set, concave rebreather apparatus.[2]

The helmet also includes several sensor capabilities and user-adjustable settings that are not yet compatible with standard VISR hardware.[3]

Development history

It was manufactured by the Materials Group and tested at the Damascus Testing Facility. Over several years Materials was balancing out the needs of personnel for search-and-rescue operations, appropriately fine-tuning individual components like the long-range sensors and large toolsets like armor-fixed rescue implements.[2] It was designed for the facilitation of search-and-rescue strike teams protecting ONI personnel, critical government and military personnel from capture by Insurrectionist forces.[4]

Usage

The armor is widely recognized as the best Mjolnir suit available for high-value target and hostage recovery operations.[3]
