GOBLIN-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2].[1]

Overview

Development history

The UNSC Infinity's Fireteam Shadow tested GOBLIN suits during the Requiem Campaign. Production models of the suit were also not fitted with sensor-warping technology that was rumored in the prototypes.[1]

Usage

The GOBLIN suit was notably used by Spartan Horatio Fry, of Fireteam Shadow, during the Requiem Campaign between 2557 and 2558.[2] During Operation: VERTICAL UMBRAGE on February 14, Fry used his GOBLIN suit to board the Zanar-pattern light cruiser, Panom's Canticle, in a boarding action ultimately resulting in the ship's destruction.[3][4]
