The CBRN module (right) with a Command Network Module (left).

The CBRN module, short for the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear module, is an external attachment for several MJOLNIR Mark V and [GEN3] helmets.[1][2]

Overview

Design details

CBRN modules are typically filter attachments worn externally on the "mouth" area of helmets.[3]

Usage

The CBRN modules are employed for operations in hazard zones, wherein chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats are present.[4]

Known modules

The CBRN module has multiple observed modules, each with its own distinct physical appearance.

AML 201-1

Manufactured by Watershed Division, the AML 201-1 CBRN module contain an unknown type of programmable matter and hives for nanomachine swarms that augment a Spartan's respiratory efficiency. The analysis process is complicated by how the nanomachines become inert outside the helmet or host Spartan.[5]

MK12T2 TRAILWATCH

Manufactured by Korolev Heavy Industries, the MK17 MOD1 KUZNETS module is specialized for the interiors of Forerunner megastructures.[7]

MK55

Manufactured by Imbrium Machine Complex, the MK55 module is a filter attachment used during extended operations in environments contaminated by chemical agents, radionuclides, and biological hazards.[3]

The MK55 module has been observed to be compatible with the following helmets:

MK59E GLANCE

Manufactured by Imbrium Machine Complex, the MK59E GLANCE module is designed for hazardous operations in the tainted atmosphere of damaged space station and warships. The MK59E GLANCE module has been observed to be compatible exclusively with the AVIATOR-class Mjolnir helmet.[12]

MOD-P

Manufactured by Naphtali Contractor Corporation, the MOD-P CBRN module is designed to maximize endurance and efficacy in various atmospheric conditions, or to aid Spartans in tracking specific biochemical signatures. The MOD-P CBRN module has been observed to be compatible exclusively with the MORRIGAN-class Mjolnir helmet.[13]

EOD-style module

The CBRN module on the standard EOD helmet.

This EOD-style module is a pair of filter attachments on either side of the helmet. It is employed on the standard Mark V EOD-class Mjolnir helmet, but it could be removed for other helmet attachments.[14]

This module has been observed to be compatible with the following helmets:

AKIS-style module

The CBRN module on the AKIS helmet.

The AKIS-style module was developed in parallel to the AKIS helmet, and has only been observed as compatible to the AKIS helmet.[16]

Gameplay

The CBRN modules serve as cosmetics and have no impact on gameplay.

Halo: Reach

Two of the CBRN modules are available as attachments on several helmets in the armor permutations of Halo: Reach. The device is priced at different levels of Credits, depending on the base helmets. In Halo: The Master Chief Collection, the same CBRN-attached helmets are unlockable in Season 1: Noble, while the AKIS-style module added in Series 5: Anvil.

Production notes

"CBRN" stands for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear, and is pronounced "C-BURN". It is the same abbreviation used in real life, hence its association with the HAZOP armor permutation.
