Development history
Referred to as Mark VI MOD,[4] the Mark VI Mjolnir armor worn by MCPO John-117 following the end of the Human-Covenant War was updated by UNSC AI Cortana[1] during their four years and seven months of cryosleep aboard the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn.[2] Cortana used minifacturing and diagnostic systems to repair and alter John's armor.[5][6]
During her time on the Dawn, Cortana also updated the suit's firmware,[2] and during their time on Requiem, Cortana added a soft patch to the firmware to allow compatibility with Covenant armor plugins.[3]

This armor was heavily damaged during the Skirmish on Installation 03 on July 26, 2557 [7] and replaced by a similar GEN2 Mjolnir armor variant.[8]
