DYNAST-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR [GEN2] armor.[1][2]
Overview
Specifications
The Dynast armor excels in close-range firefights due to its resilience and situational awareness. The helmet of the Dynast set is both extremely durable and expensive, being covered by a layered series of compressed carbon nanotubes and hyperdiamond sheets. Its superior composition has caused it to effectively replace older CQB designs,[1] though the first-generation CQB-class Mjolnir could still be requisitioned by Spartans as late as 2558.[1][3]
