The unknown armour set is believed to be a type of United Nations Space Command body armor.

Introduction

The unknown armor set was seen in the packground of the picture released for Bungie Day and bears no similarity to the other armor sets released.

It will be an armor permutation in Halo 3 multiplayer. Bungie has confirmed all of the armor permutations have no effect on gameplay.

Currently unknown

The helemt appears to be superficially similar to the MJOLNIR VI armor but however is visor is thiner, as is it's face palte wihch seems to run to the shin, leaving a 'black' area between the visor and the face plate.
Its chest palte seems much more thicker than that of the EVA and CQB's chest plate and seems to be much more than simply armor bolted on but several segmented layers between one and three.
The shoulder pad seems similar to that of the EVA shoulder pad but has an angular peak in the centre, where the object would be on the EVA armor.
