HOPLITE-class Mjolnir
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Armor Infobox The MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Hoplite is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor.[1] The Hoplite variant has implemented targeting and datalink advancements that increase the accuracy and lethality of its Spartan users when they operate long-range heavy munitions, such as the M41 rocket launcher.[2] Initially designed as an alternative to the SPI armor used by SPARTAN-III operatives, the Watershed Division unexpectedly revealed the Hoplite as a low-cost MJOLNIR variant. Hoplite armor lacks the bells and whistles of most MJOLNIR variants, but is easy to build and repair.[3]
Trivia
A hoplite was a citizen-soldier of the Ancient Greek city-states who was armed primarily with a spear and a shield. Hoplites represent the archetypal image of Ancient Greek warriors, including the forces of Sparta.
