The ODST combat armor or Body Suit, although similar to standard marine armor, and used by the SPARTAN-IIs before they got their MJOLNIR armor, is a specially-designed suit. The suit itself is composed of a helmet, body armor, boots/gloves, and a back piece. It can deflect a small-caliber round, one smaller than a SMG shot (around 5mm, usually used in automatic rifles) They have refrigeration and heating units that mask infrared signatures. The body armor and boots/gloves are fully encased and are air tight, making them capable of use in a vacuum for about 15 minutes. The integrated helmet has encryption and communications gear, a Heads-Up Display, and thermal and motion detectors. When sealed, the unit has a fifteen minute reserve of oxygen to let the wearer survive in a vacuum. The current generation ODST armor was one of the off shoots of the MJOLNIR program, using CTCs and other HUD and communication systems from it to create a more effective armor.
