Production overview

Type:

MJOLNIR (GEN2)

Role(s):

Armor for Headhunters[1]

 

WRATH-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR [GEN2] armor based on the Mark V EVA variant of the first-generation Mjolnir.[1]

Overview

Development history

Based on requests of veteran Spartan-II and Spartan-III operatives, the UNSC Ordnance Commission considered reassessing a refined and upgraded suit of the Mark V EVA variant. This led to the creation of the Wrath variant, which is more specifically a recreation of the custom armor set worn by Emile-A239, member of NOBLE Team.[2]

Formally an upgrade of existing Mark V EVA suits, the WRATH project was actually a cover to develop a new Mjolnir variant specifically tailored to the needs of future Headhunter teams.[1] The Spartan Operations contract for WRATH helmets was exceedingly specific regarding the pattern and method of reproduction for the death's head engraving on the visor.[3]
