ORBITAL-class Mjolnir
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Armor Infobox Template:Article Quote The MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Orbital is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2).[1] The armor's helmet bears a striking resemblance to the EVA-class Mjolnir.
Development history
Developed by the Naphtali Contractor Corporation, the MJOLNIR/Orbital variant was field-tested during the battles in the skyhooks and space elevators on Earth and Luna during the Battle of Earth.[1] The armor includes a valence-fading blast shield, L4-0 braced generators, and tow-grip isolation packs for quick yet stable mobility in zero-g settings.[2]

Trivia
The Orbital helmet's human skull painted onto the visor is similar to Emile-A239's EVA [C] helmet. The skin's in Halo 5 all refer to positions of planets in relation to the sun. Perihelion is closest, aphelion is farthest, and an equinox is when day and night are equal in length.
