Production overview

Manufacturer(s):

Banished[1]

Type:

MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (Compatible)

 

The ASSAILER-class armor is an armor variant compatible with the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN3) platform.[1]

Overview

Design details

The Assailer helmet bears significant resemblance to the harness used by the Sangheili Enforcers. The Assailer helmet is compatible with the Mimic Mask attachment; the Mimic Mask itself bears resemblance to the mouthplate present in a variant of the Sangheili Infiltration harness used by the Banished.

Development history

The Assailer powered armor was developed by the Banished.[1] By March 2560, the Office of Naval Intelligence managed to obtain waylaid prototypes from an operation on Venezia; the components of these prototypes would be studied by the human and Sangheili personnel on ANVIL Station, as well as tested by Spartans on ANVIL's War Games decks.[2]

Usage

Janissaries affiliated with the Banished make use of this armor. After ONI managed to obtain some prototypes of the Assailer powered armor, at least six Spartan operatives on Anvil Station would also make use of the armor's components.[2]

In-game information

Halo Infinite

The Assailer armor is available for multiplayer Spartan armor customization in Halo Infinite.
