Template:Armor Infobox Template:Article Quote VENATOR-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] manufactured by Lethbridge Industrial.[1]
GEN1 Information
Development history
The GEN1 Venator armor gained prominence during the Covenant's attack on Concord in 2551 for its improvement of user opportunity in hand-to-hand and single-enemy combat.[1]
GEN2 Information
Overview
The helmet has spatial recognition functionality. The suit has full-mobility, overlocking movement packages. The pauldrons are embedded, minimal silhouette pauldrons for improved close-quarters combat.[2]
Development history
The lessons learned from Concord and advancements made with the project during the waning years of the Covenant War were only fully realized by the VENATOR model built upon the new GEN2 Mjolnir platform.[3] Engineered for a variety of uses in the field, Lethbridge Industrial’s philosophical approach on improving user opportunity during hand-to-hand or single-enemy combat helped define the benefits that make VENATOR-class armor so effective.[4]
After the Requiem Campaign, Lethbridge Industrial improved the Venator's power management subsystem and reduced its maintenance requirements. By October 2558, the armor's firmware had incorporated a generalization of predictive targeting algorithms originally created to assist new Spartans in close-quarters combat.[5]
Usage
Many advocate this suit as the full realization of CQB's time-honored methodology.[2]

- 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 Venator design but with glowing lights through it.
