The Hayabusa Armor is a type of United Nations Space Command body armor.
Introduction
The Hayabusa is a powered battle armor system similar to the standard Mark VI MJOLNIR execpt stemming from Project HAYABUSA as opposed to Project: MJOLNIR. It was devolped by RKD, an Earth-based think tank in the year 2536. It was presented to the UNSC Ordinance Committee as an answer to the self-contained powered armor problem. Advanced materials are used in the production of the Hayabusa armor reducing the weight of the at the time current generation armor by nearly a third. It will be an armor permutation in Halo 3 multiplayer. Bungie has confirmed all of the armor permutations have no effect on gameplay.
