The Assault variant is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor designed for use in close to medium distance combat. The variant includes various chest pieces as well as wrist protection compatible with MJOLNIR Mark V.[1]
Chest
Assault/Sapper

Broadly speaking, sappers are equally at home building things as they are blowing them up.
Price: 14,000 cR
This chestpiece adds two straps of grenades over the default armor. These extend to midway through the abdomen, and have buckles holding them to the armor. It also adds a two grenades of a different model under the chestplate, as well as a grenade belt of the same grenades.
Assault/Commando

Anything you don’t have, you can find in the field. Anything you can’t find, you didn’t need anyway.
Price: 12,000 cR
This chestpeice adds a few pouches over the default armor. One is a small, recangular puch with a triangular strap, and the other is a special pouch with what appears to be an external radio. A "tactical waist bag" is also added to the back.
Assault/Sapper [R]

Next time don’t cut your fuses so short.
Price: 250,000 cR
This chestpiece is almost the same as the defaualt Sapper, but it has a prosthetic arm and lacks the grenade belt of the original.
Wrist
Breacher

Supplementary bandoleer, Rigid, 8 Gauge.
Price: 200,000 cR
This wrist armor consists of a rack that contains extra shotgun shells. It would presumably be used in break-and-enter situations, to have extra shells close at hand
Trivia
- A sapper (as in Assault/Sapper) is a combat engineer.
- For reasons unknown, Assault Sapper [R] lacks the grenade belt on the standard Assault/Sapper
- The Commando chest piece adds a fanny pack in addition to the frontal pouches.
- It is unknown why the Assault/Breacher wrist utility is worn on the left forearm, as Noble Six is never seen holding a shotgun left-handedly. Emile wears it on his right forearm, which is much more convenient for reloading.
