Cheers for the Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you considered - Trentvorty Fitness Life Theorem (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a good one of a kind product for learning how to design your own Iron Man suit without the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my cousin after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical results with it.
Actually, while his armor does make him damn powerfull, saying "what makes him so powerfull is his armor" feels wrong. He (and his team) could punch people who wore early generation exoskeleton-suits so hard they flew 8 meters back (when he wasn't even 18 years old yet). Keep in mind, while doing this they didn't wear ANY suits or gear. It was barehanded using their own strenght. And that's when they hadn't grown fulyt from their injections and musclegrowth yet. So yeah, he's fucking insane without the armor too. The armor reacts to his thoughts, so he doesn't really have to move it by his own strength that much. What's required is bonestrength and immense reaction speed to prevent the suit from killing the wearer with its fast and powerfull movements. The suit is immune to small arms fire, and can take glancing blows from high-caliber armorpenetrating rounds, WITHOUT the energy shield.
This is a comment that I can agree with.. I don't know if this is relevant or not, but some men in real life who's considered being the alpha male, have some insane amount of muscles and testosterone. My husband's one of those men, he can take on a bull any day.. first I thought it was impossible, then I saw it with my own eyes. How can he be so damn strong? He doesn't even lift. Anyway.. if real men can be insanely powerful, then maybe John was naturally strong before his injections. There's also a difference in bone strength, naturally strong bones are almost indestructible.
Kjernekar Truth! also they have super strong dense bones, The muscle tissue surrounding the bone is so strong that it would in some cases, mangle the Spartan II. An extremely painful way to live and die.
+none Well, that's not totally correct. The armor itself was highly resistant to machine gun fire up to 7.62x51mm AP, the modern equivalent of sniper rifle rounds. However a rebel group got their hands on LMGs with a ridiculously fast firing rate and used high performance armor piercing rounds that were designed to damage light tanks. This would cause enough damage that the Spartans had to be careful not to get hit. However, later when Chief was testing an upgraded version of the armor, the Mark V, it managed to deflect 30mm and 50mm autocannon fire, and even withstood the indirect blast of an anti-tank missile.
The Ma5 Assault rifle series in Halo uses 7.62x51mm NATO. And the sniper rifle the video's author is referring to is the PTRS-41 and PTR-D anti-tank rifles used by the soviet union.
You say he's pretty average in strength and size. No. He punched something bigger than that giant dude, made out of metal with giant guns. It landed 8 metres away. He also accidentally killed 4 trained best of the best marines or ODST's at 15 years old. With armour, thy are super dooper strong. Spartans have been known to use mongooses (basically military grade quad bikes) as hammers until it falls apart. Chief also ran 100kmph or around 60mph I believe. Just after backhanding a missile from a jet fighter. Keep in mid it's an advanced missile far beyond what we have today. It landed a few metres away a only took 3/4 of the shields out. And the shields have been improved since then. The armour is so much better in canon.
If you have read the halo book the fall of reach you would know that the mjolnir armor isnt moved by the host physically, but rather it has a mental link to the host (the same way ai like cortana do) an the armor actually moves when the host thinks about moving it, also increasing reaction time. BUT as a result of this normal humans cant use it because what ever is actually causing it to move is so strong it BREAKS ALL OF THERE BONES! this is whey they need supersoldiers like the spartans, not so much for there increased strength and reaction time but instead durability. also the whole being trained sense childhood thing helps.
+MaximumRageQuit after reading and watching some of the halo materials it does annoy me a bit swing the game theory guys video come up in his evidence, the mark 4 gen 1 was dangerous to standard humans but mark 5 corrected those dangers and besides that we're on gen 2 mark 6 with halo 5 which is a different suit in many aspects
In the video, it makes it seemed like all they did was pump the spartans with steroids and vitamins. They didn't mention the genetic and surgical modifications they had to endure. That was the real reason why so there were so many failures.
the only reason standard bullets affect Spartans in game is because it is a gameplay mechanic, in the books, the armour is stated to be impervious to bullets
This Also, if the armor is so incredibly capable with 1000 pounds of gold-titanium alloy, what happens when you take that off? Is there any information on this 'cause it seems like doing so would likely result in Dragon Ball Z levels of stupidly high speed and strength.
+Bacon Popcorn Not necessarily. Most of the speed and workload is handled by the armor itself, Spartans would generally move and fight at the same pace with or without the outer titanium shell pieces. To answer if they can go faster than normal: Spartans can sprint up to about 65mph, albeit doing so tears their Achilles heel and muscles. On average they can run around 35mph - 40mph without difficulty, can push it to around 60 if they need to do a mad dash. (Without risking injury) Not quite as fast as a Cheetah. Still a 1000lb hulking mass of metal that would pummel anyone's ass into the ground, that can use guns, and is bulletproof essentially...
I meant that the suit is weighed down by the 600-1000 Lbs. of titanium plating, and removing said plating would allow for either a lower energy requirement or significantly amplified physical capabilities in comparison to the Spartans already impressive statistics.
I Dont Care01010101001 Not really. Did you read any halo book or lore? The armor make them more powerful obviously but without it they are stronger, faster and more everything 😂 than a normal human
The neural implants in Chief's head for a link to the armor, like how your nervous system connects your brain to your limbs. The armor pretty much acts like additional muscle, controlled by his brain, so everything is in perfect sync. At full exertion, with his super enhanced muscles and the artificial muscles of the suit, Chief would be able to lift 1 ton (200lbs) without much of a strain on his body. This is why a simple melee attack can kill the incredibly tough Covenant enemies like Elites and Brutes, because when you have a ~1000lb man traveling in excess of 70mph (we can move our limbs faster than we can propell ourselves to run) and all that force is concentrated over the surface area of a fist (probably close to 12in across, SPARTANS have big hands), you get a crazy kinetic energy which would break even the strongest of Sangheili bones in less than a few hits.
So much falsity in this video. First, as many pointed out, Master Chief is 6'10 without his armor. You question how he is able to wield his armor; He was enhanced at extreme levels as you stated, but not only was his muscular skeletal system enhanced exponentially, his bones and ligaments were strengthened beyond belief. At the age of 14 or so, without his armor, he had the strength of 5 men. (True Video and in the books, I'm pretty sure it shows and references him repping 500+ lbs on the bench press like it was nothing.) And he was only 14!! So that's why he's able to wield the armor. EVERYTHING about Spartans in the GAMES are seriously dumbed down for gameplay. Chief and Spartans alike can take enormous amounts of punishment and still make it out alive. I have seen several sources claiming Chief can withstand a nuclear blast at near point blank range. He is also seen deflecting tank projectiles with a simple swipe of his hand. Spartans are much stronger, faster and smarter than seen in the games. Equipped with suits, they are at least 10-15 times stronger than the strongest men on earth(think about it, if Chief can withstand a NUCLEAR BLAST, I'm pretty sure that when he is fully equipped he can toss around a few tonnes with relative ease). Spartans can sprint up to 60mph for extended distances(physical enhancements alone make this possible, but suit is made to take most of the workload.) Usain Bolt is the fastest known man on earth, clocking in at 27 mph. He can only maintain this speed for a few moments. Now you know that he is a Hyper-Intelligent superhuman with extreme durability, INCREDIBLE strength..... and he is as fast as a cheetah. TLDR: This video is full of misinformation; the true specifications are in the books. Spartans are dumb-downed exponentially for gameplay. If you were to see ONE of these Demi-Gods on the battlefield in modern times, you might as well roll over and kiss your ass goodbye. Edit: Master Chief is also a master of a plethora of Martial arts. He is also an expert marksman with every weapon he can get his hands on.
After reading all you've said I get really pissed off about the Masterchief vs Agent Locke fight scene. We should have been two supermen punching each other across the screen like Watered down Dragon Ball Z Not two drunks
Zero Cognition First off, the missile was called a scorpion missile, but it was fired from a dropship, and doing what he did nearly killed him even with the suit, and it it also powered, at the start of the chapter he notes how uncomfterable it is when put on, but once kickstarted and powered up isn't even noticable.
Demolition ranch shot a titanium plate (roughly 1-2" thick) with a .50 BMG API, a pretty similar round and it stopped it. Also this is 500 years in the future so they may be able to produce better quality metals with different properties.
A 14.5mm is twice as powerful as .50 bmg also the Halo Sniper rifle uses armor piercing sabots which goes at a far higher velocity than standard rounds. Higher velocity bullets ignore most material resistance and the insane speed of shaped charges ignores all material resistance (which is why copper shaped charge liners penetrate tanks).
The Old Deus Caliber has nothing to do with penetration. 25mm AP penetrates about 47mm of rha at close range and 14.5mm AP penetrates a bit over 40mm at close range. 14.5 apfsds has even better penetration qualities due to the velocity. Even if the round didn't penetrate the first shot doesn't mean the armor is invulnerable to that threat.
+SpacePak well it's just that the games modify it to be fun. like in the books, the armor without shields is pretty much impervious to small arms fire, but that games change that for playability so he can die from a SMG shot to the foot
+SpacePak oh and the whole 'carrying the weight of a small elephant' thing, the armor has liquid crystal hydraulics, carrying its own weight once assembled
Master Chief can carry the armor, not only because he's been augmented to be stronger, but also because the suit is kind of like a robot, as in it moves with him. It knows exactly what Chief wants to do, because it's connected to his nervous system.
Yeah, it responds to his inputs in sync with his muscles, his neural implant acts like another nervous system when linked to the suit. This means that while exerting his regular muscles, the suit is also working, giving him more than double the strength he would need.
"master cheif isn't that strong" I know this is just scientific theory, but cmon! they explain in-game that Spartans are stronger than most (if not all) normal humans... so... what?
No regular humans (without somehow adapting to some crazy conditions like extra gravity, but then they wouldn't be normal anyway hence stopping the argument there) can match any of the physical attributes of a SPARTAN-II save for height and weight. The strength of one SPARTAN is easily more than 5 strong humans, while still having a stamina to operate that strength where others would tire out. 5 guys carrying a 500lb couch down a hallway would get tired after a few trips, each man is lifting 100lbs. A SPARTAN could not only make the trip himself, but would be able to do so repeatedly without tiring nearly as fast as the 5 regular human men.
In the Halo lore, its states that Chief is actually 6'10-6'11 without armor, and 7'2 with the armor. And his suit only amplifies his abilities a little, his power comes mostly from his augmentations.
In the books, the shields were immune to most guns. the only reason they pierce shields in the game is because they are using these things called "shredder rounds" that were much more powerful than standard ammunition.
+Enf enf enf I thought they did it for balance reasons. For example the plasma weapons in Halo would actually be better then the human weapons but for the sake of gameplay the human weapons are normally more powerful.
all Spartans got drugged as part of the enhancements but what you're referring to is that spartan-III Gamma company got a highly illegal drug that made them mentally unstable
+Henry Hopkins I know, Spartan IIIs however did not get surgeries/procedures/implants, they used drugs instead of these surgeries as it was inexpensive compared to the surgeries. Gamma only took additional drugs, they were not the only ones they had took.
+L. Snider I was under the impression they had the same surgical procedures because in the ghosts of onyx book Kurt makes a point of saying that the technology had improved and none of them died during augmentation. The armor the IIIs wore was a lot cheaper but the surgeries weren't
1:54 _"This leapfrogs questions like how does someone carry armor that weighs as much as a baby elephant"_ Wait, you mean wearing it? Because... that's already answered. It's an exoskeletan suit. Same way with how the U.S. military and DARPA are experimenting with current powered exo suits whose frames weigh enough that no one would be able to wear them if they weren't powered suits. The exoskeletan keeps the frame upright and keeps the weight off the user. It's less "wearing" the suit than it is "piloting" the suit. It's not like wearing a bunch of metal plates just hanging on your body.
I'm gonna hazard a guess and say that energy shields deflect normal bullets and possibly absorb direct hits from sniper rifles by completely vaporising the round in its shield-ness. Similar to how it protects from plasma weapons.
One thing that's pretty amazing is they've somehow managed to reduce the recoil of, basically, a small anti-tank cannon (the sniper rifle), depending on how you classify a cannon, to a level that ordinary marines can easily manage firing it like you would any other rifle.
Boeing making a force field? That would be something cool to see, right up there with first people on Mars by 2023 or whenever...more so in my lifetime would be nice. Another one for the Books of awesome videos Mike, keep it up.
There is just one thing that might deplete a lot of this video, John not only has the armor and the shield, he also went through several physical improvements when he went through the Spartan process improving his skeletal and muscle strength/capacity. Also his suit enhances this to the point where someone who hadn't gone through the Spartan process would break there bones just from movement in one of these suits. As well halo is a game and half the things that are in it are unrealistic, to either progress the story or make combat more even when realistically chief might... MIGHT be all most unstoppable to the covenant.
I like the new style for these videos, and that shield regeneration animation is absolutely stunning. I love the lore behind the armour and how it can be explained. The thing about the neural interface being able to predict your movement so you don't have to carry the mass of the suit and increase movement speed is awesome. Great video!
+Mike I personally am a huge fan of Halo because if the lore. It's incredibly intriguing because of all the hypothetical technology. Also, I'm brand new to this channel and I already love it!
first question you asked about carrying the amour: he has a chip on the back of his neck that connects him to his suit. He doesn't move the armour, he starts the movement and it predicts that movement.
Alaskan Blitz somewhat true. But the armour actually moves him. It cuts the delay from biological limitations. So the armour actually moves him before his muscles receive the brain signal
If you guys are wondering how he is able to wear 1000 pound armor lemme tell you. Every spartan has a neural adapter on their the back of their heads that connect the suit to the brain so the suit is controlled by thought. So they actually don't feel the weight and it is more of like a second skin.
Very good use of graphics and narration. My only critique is for your face cam shots, the warm light from your lights and the cool light from the natural light conflict with one another. Other than that great job keep up the good work!
the way they carry the armor is thorough a neural chip implanted in the head of the soldier which is linked to the armors on board computer that actually makes the armor lighter for the user since its just their brain thats making the armor do what it does which makes it in some way logically lighter
Chief took a lot of hits in the game, and the only time his armour got damaged was when he fell from space, it took a fall from space to dent/scratch his armour
if you ever played the original Halo game in PVP the energy shield is useless against hitting Master Chief in the back hitting him with either the pistol or your fist can instantly kill Master Chief
The Mjolnir armor is motion assisted, the reason wearing a 1000lb suit of armor doesn't really phase Master Chief (or any spartan for that matter) is the suit holds itself up in a way and assists in increasing strength, speed and reaction time among many other things, it also can not be dialed back, it's motion assistance is too much for a normal Human too handle, in one of the books when Spartan John-117 (he wasn't Master Chief at the time) first gets his Mjolnir armor he tries to salute an officer and smashes himself in the face and thinks about how his wrist would be broken if he wasn't a spartan . . . . . there is also an incident in the same book where an ODST is testing out a suit of Mjolnir armor and dies horribly just trying to bend over
On the topic of energy shields, they may just use the same technology as the energy sword (electromagnetically contained plasma) and just vapourish the bullet, though the power strain would be enormous, btw love the channel m8, keep up the good work.
John was 6'10" outside of his armor, not 6'7" and weighted 290. In the suit, he's 7'4" and 990 lbs. Other perspective is Daniel Cudmore, who plays Colossus in X-men and also played the MC in Forward Unto Dawn is 6'8" and weighed 240.
Master chief does't carry the "Exosuit" that weighs approximately 1 ton, the armor follows his movements an enhances his performance. He does not physically carry the weight of the armor by himself, the armor is an "Exosuit" which surrounds him, he does not keep the armor erect it follows his movement.
Master chief survived reentry because he was using a forerunner door as a heat shield. He survived space because he wasn't out there for very long and his suits environment control systems would have still been operational.
But still! A lot of people would wish to be you right now! You should feel proud for reaching this number! You're only.. 87K away from become famous! Your almost a 1/5th way there! Don't feel sad! You've crossed the "nobody" section AGES ago! You're on your way to become a famous dude. Not sure if I depressed you or made you happier, but I was trying to make you happy...
OMFG Theres a difference between In Game Mechanics and whats Halo Lore... M.C. can't be taken down by one sniper bullet ... Haven't you seen people shooting blocks of titanium on youtube?
Halo 5 has a scumbag armour mod called upgraded shields that can survive energy bayonets and deflect sniper and beam rifle shots even if u hit their head
Mark IV, V, and VI are titanium, Gen2 is a ceramic-titanium retrofit with nanotechnology integration. It's still unknown whether or not the Mark VIs are ceramic as they have nanotech to upgrade firmware as presented in Halo 4. Also, the Chief's reactions time plays a big role against snipers. When was the last time you saw him twitch after getting shot? Trust me, he'd aimbot his target after hearing a wisp, let alone dive for cover after getting shot. Don't forget, campaign and multiplayer are two different things, he's a walking Mobile Suit Gundam after all.
the thing you said about the shield repelling plasma makes a lot of sense because you see it fly back after a hit but you should look to see if chiefs shield instead of deflecting the bullet instead attempts to vaporize it because it would need a lot of energy to do that and would at least melt the bullet and remove A significant portion of the force
Spartans are also cybernetically augmented, that's how they can use the armour instead of just lying there... And only 33 out of 75 candidates actually survived the surgeries and training
The 14.5x114mm round that's fired from SRS sniper rifles is an Armor-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot round. It is essentially a hyper-dense dart that directs a lot of kinetic energy in a very small region for maximum penetration power. Using the term "Armor Piercing" on a round such as this is a gross miscalculation.
+Lucas Ng Uh... what? Have you ever looked at the difference between an AP shell and an APFSDS? An APFSDS, or simply, a Sabot round, has considerably higher armor-piercing capabilities than an AP round. It is considerably heavier and it flies at a far greater velocity, plus it contains no explosive filler. Purely a penetrating rod made out of dense metals (in our era, they're made from Tungsten or Depleted Uranium). According to the kinetic energy formula, it has a lot of more kinetic energy than an armor-piercing shell. The statistics are definitely different, thus it makes a difference. Sabot (APFSDS) rounds are definitely better than Armor-Piercing.
John didn't simply receive performance enhancing drugs, and growth hormones. I mean some on, he had his bones laced with advanced ceramics to make them far stronger, and his new base reflexes are insane.
Mk 5(A) can withstand a quadruplet of 50 mm guns (shield bar dropped to half) and at least 1 anti tank missile in the next 25 seconds. That's just the mk5(a) Don't ask me what the Mk 6 Gen2 can do cuz I don't know
Halo 4-5 armor has ceramic plates all over the suits under the first layer of the paint and wax-like coat. The jell in the under armor is to regulate body temp, absorb kinetic shock, and when a bullet makes it's way past the jell and into the human it releases painkillers and a clotting agent to help stop bleeding. The energy shield also reduces energy and shock by sending it to the ground and this is done via magnetic and some kind of compression. The shock is taken in like water and then shifted around the user's whole body and then forced away to the ground and then discharged. The user shouldn't feel much but maybe a small amount of feedback pressure at all sides of there body from the shield exploding out. Some spartans also add extra protection like kevlar and extra plates of ceramic but most people over look, haven't unlocked the armor yet, and or cant tell because in pvp most amror is colored heavily with team shades of blue and red to make them stick out.
This is a question. Aren't the games alpha canon? Meaning when other sources produce information that contradict, the games show truth? Bungee = games > than all other source. Can't pick and choose, there is alpha canon and then there is everything else.
Just so you guys know, 14.5 mm is the bullet diameter, while 114mm would be the length of the brass case that holds the gun powder. Either way, that's a lot of powder and kinetic energy.
in the games the only reason his armor fails to the sniper rifle is well balance for instance the energy sword in halo lore does not only take 10 hits to the deplete the battery.
the soldier doesn't move the armor. the armor itself moves and amplifies the speed and power of the soldier's movements. which is why if a normal person were in the armor, their bones end up snapping from the force.
you are forgetting that a sniper will go through the armor even with full shielding. that's why in later halo games chief is actually hurt when taking a body shot from a sniper, and why a head shot is always a one hit kill with a sniper.
you gotta remember though, gameplay isn't cannon only cutscenes and books. lorewise anything below a 25mm round (not sure if I remember right) won't do much to the armor.
Now to help you understand the armor. A lot of the things you said was somewhat true. Master Chief has two layers of armor. There's a gel layer with that black suit of armor which is made out of titanium special types of metals as well as a gel layer. And the frontal armor like the helmet the chest the arms and legs are pure mjolnir armor. But there's multiple types of mjolnir armor. What Master Chief usually uses is the mark 4 the Mark 5 and Mark 6 armor. The switches around between games but the primary armor Master Chief uses is a Gen 2 Mark 6 armor. There are three generation of armor. There are two gen 1 armor which provides protection and the abilities that your average Spartan needs. They're usually found on Spartan 2s and Spartan threes. Now we have the Gen 2 Armor which is what Sparks and fours will use and if Sparks and tools are still around they would get an updated set of their armor and that usually would be a Gen 2 armor set. Now we have the Gen 3 armor. The Gen 3 armor has the same style and protection as the Gen 1 armor the also all the modern updates of the Gen 2 Armor. But there's multiple variance the Gen 3 armor Master Chief is receiving in Halo infinite has the same style as his old Mark 5 armor but it's going to provide him maximum protection. Now let's get down to more. Spartans also go through augmentation because if you don't have augmentation and you wear mjolnir armor you will die from the mjolnir armor. So augmentations Master Chief went through is a bit more dangerous because the chemicals that they had are experimental. But Master Chief received one extra augmentation which allows in the ability to use in AI. That gives him the ability to use Cortana or Roland. What would happen is if a Spartan has this argumentation would be able to have access to Tactical data and know what's going on in the battlefield. So taking it leak Master Chief with Cortana would be 10 steps ahead of his enemies. If Master Chief had a different AI it would go the same route. But the interesting thing about having an AI is they can start up an energy Shield as built within the armor. In one instance a flood infection form was about to take over Master Chief but thanks to Cortana she was able to start up the Shields and killed the flood inflection form. So it's like going through a maze of Firepower. There's a lot of armor and security protocols built within the armor to protect the Spartan. Oh and the interesting thing is there's different models of each set of armor to help fit each row of each member of each Squad of Spartans.
Master Chief is 6'10" without his armor and 7'2" in armor.

In Halopedia, Master Chief is 6'10 and in armor is 7'2

Actually, while his armor does make him damn powerfull, saying "what makes him so powerfull is his armor" feels wrong.

There's also a difference in bone strength, naturally strong bones are almost indestructible.

Jenny Wesström Wh-what?
lore armour is better than game armour
it takes a 30 mm cannon to penetrate it
+none Well, that's not totally correct. The armor itself was highly resistant to machine gun fire up to 7.62x51mm AP, the modern equivalent of sniper rifle rounds. However a rebel group got their hands on LMGs with a ridiculously fast firing rate and used high performance armor piercing rounds that were designed to damage light tanks. This would cause enough damage that the Spartans had to be careful not to get hit. However, later when Chief was testing an upgraded version of the armor, the Mark V, it managed to deflect 30mm and 50mm autocannon fire, and even withstood the indirect blast of an anti-tank missile.
+Brandon Wise 7.62 rounds are mainly used by battle rifles, LMGs, some lower powered sniper rifles and other rifles
+Brandon Wise but rounds larger than 7.62 are usually used for sniper rifles
338. Magnum. 408 CheyTac. 12.7mm(50. cal) 55.6x45. 7.62x54. Those are the rounds most sniper rifles use.
The Ma5 Assault rifle series in Halo uses 7.62x51mm NATO.
And the sniper rifle the video's author is referring to is the PTRS-41 and PTR-D anti-tank rifles used by the soviet union.
Their are so many inaccuracies in this video that I can't even get past 3 minutes.
ULG Spirit omg I KNOW! Check out my comment at the top
hello this is alec you comment is only at the top for you
In essence, minus the inaccuracies, it's shit we already knew.
Yep. It's apparent that not a lot of effort was put into research.
He made it clear in the beginning that it's a new topic to him give him a bit dudes we all start somewhere
You say he's pretty average in strength and size. No. He punched something bigger than that giant dude, made out of metal with giant guns. It landed 8 metres away. He also accidentally killed 4 trained best of the best marines or ODST's at 15 years old. With armour, thy are super dooper strong. Spartans have been known to use mongooses (basically military grade quad bikes) as hammers until it falls apart. Chief also ran 100kmph or around 60mph I believe. Just after backhanding a missile from a jet fighter. Keep in mid it's an advanced missile far beyond what we have today. It landed a few metres away a only took 3/4 of the shields out. And the shields have been improved since then. The armour is so much better in canon.
sorry, i'm a bit rusty, i read it for the last time around 2-3 years ago.
Yeah, i just don't like it when people take the in game properties of the armour and feats.
+Taylor Houle I'm prettttttyyyy sure it was 4 ODSTs
+Deadly Didgeridoo I think the fourth ODST you're thinkng about is the officer that told the other three to fight John.
+Deadly Didgeridoo Nothing wrong with that....
If you have read the halo book the fall of reach you would know that the mjolnir armor isnt moved by the host physically, but rather it has a mental link to the host (the same way ai like cortana do) an the armor actually moves when the host thinks about moving it, also increasing reaction time. BUT as a result of this normal humans cant use it because what ever is actually causing it to move is so strong it BREAKS ALL OF THERE BONES! this is whey they need supersoldiers like the spartans, not so much for there increased strength and reaction time but instead durability. also the whole being trained sense childhood thing helps.
+8bitmason also I do actually recommend reading the fall of reach. its not the best book out there but if you like halo its an interesting read.
+8bitmason I've read that book and I'd agree. I would also recommend First strike and glasslands
i read about the armours mental link in the halo 1manual
+MaximumRageQuit after reading and watching some of the halo materials it does annoy me a bit swing the game theory guys video come up in his evidence, the mark 4 gen 1 was dangerous to standard humans but mark 5 corrected those dangers and besides that we're on gen 2 mark 6 with halo 5 which is a different suit in many aspects
In the video, it makes it seemed like all they did was pump the spartans with steroids and vitamins. They didn't mention the genetic and surgical modifications they had to endure. That was the real reason why so there were so many failures.
How bullet proof is Master Chief? 100% that's why it takes anti-tank shells to penetrate his armor, hell the sniper round is a small artillery shell.
The sniper rifle in Halo is a mini gauss cannon lmao
The Guass cannon is a small rail gun I can assure you the sniper in not a rail gun
The sniper rifle in Halo isn't a fucking gauss canon. It's a Suped-up PTRS-41 for all intensive purposes.
@@xmm-cf5eg anti matieral rifle and can be used for combat
the only reason standard bullets affect Spartans in game is because it is a gameplay mechanic, in the books, the armour is stated to be impervious to bullets
Exactly, I always thought how it's possible to penetrate titanium armor using a shotgun :/
Demolition ranch made a video with an inch and a half of titanium plate, It stopped a 50 BMG
This
Also, if the armor is so incredibly capable with 1000 pounds of gold-titanium alloy, what happens when you take that off?
Is there any information on this 'cause it seems like doing so would likely result in Dragon Ball Z levels of stupidly high speed and strength.
+Bacon Popcorn
Not necessarily. Most of the speed and workload is handled by the armor itself, Spartans would generally move and fight at the same pace with or without the outer titanium shell pieces.
To answer if they can go faster than normal: Spartans can sprint up to about 65mph, albeit doing so tears their Achilles heel and muscles. On average they can run around 35mph - 40mph without difficulty, can push it to around 60 if they need to do a mad dash. (Without risking injury)
Not quite as fast as a Cheetah. Still a 1000lb hulking mass of metal that would pummel anyone's ass into the ground, that can use guns, and is bulletproof essentially...
I meant that the suit is weighed down by the 600-1000 Lbs. of titanium plating, and removing said plating would allow for either a lower energy requirement or significantly amplified physical capabilities in comparison to the Spartans already impressive statistics.
and he doesn't "carry" his armor, it reads his brainwaves and reacts exactly how he would, so basically, his armor does all the work... poor thing!
I Dont Care01010101001 Not really. Did you read any halo book or lore? The armor make them more powerful obviously but without it they are stronger, faster and more everything 😂 than a normal human
The neural implants in Chief's head for a link to the armor, like how your nervous system connects your brain to your limbs. The armor pretty much acts like additional muscle, controlled by his brain, so everything is in perfect sync. At full exertion, with his super enhanced muscles and the artificial muscles of the suit, Chief would be able to lift 1 ton (200lbs) without much of a strain on his body. This is why a simple melee attack can kill the incredibly tough Covenant enemies like Elites and Brutes, because when you have a ~1000lb man traveling in excess of 70mph (we can move our limbs faster than we can propell ourselves to run) and all that force is concentrated over the surface area of a fist (probably close to 12in across, SPARTANS have big hands), you get a crazy kinetic energy which would break even the strongest of Sangheili bones in less than a few hits.
So much falsity in this video. First, as many pointed out, Master Chief is 6'10 without his armor. You question how he is able to wield his armor; He was enhanced at extreme levels as you stated, but not only was his muscular skeletal system enhanced exponentially, his bones and ligaments were strengthened beyond belief. At the age of 14 or so, without his armor, he had the strength of 5 men. (True Video and in the books, I'm pretty sure it shows and references him repping 500+ lbs on the bench press like it was nothing.) And he was only 14!! So that's why he's able to wield the armor. EVERYTHING about Spartans in the GAMES are seriously dumbed down for gameplay. Chief and Spartans alike can take enormous amounts of punishment and still make it out alive. I have seen several sources claiming Chief can withstand a nuclear blast at near point blank range. He is also seen deflecting tank projectiles with a simple swipe of his hand. Spartans are much stronger, faster and smarter than seen in the games. Equipped with suits, they are at least 10-15 times stronger than the strongest men on earth(think about it, if Chief can withstand a NUCLEAR BLAST, I'm pretty sure that when he is fully equipped he can toss around a few tonnes with relative ease). Spartans can sprint up to 60mph for extended distances(physical enhancements alone make this possible, but suit is made to take most of the workload.) Usain Bolt is the fastest known man on earth, clocking in at 27 mph. He can only maintain this speed for a few moments. Now you know that he is a Hyper-Intelligent superhuman with extreme durability, INCREDIBLE strength..... and he is as fast as a cheetah.
TLDR: This video is full of misinformation; the true specifications are in the books. Spartans are dumb-downed exponentially for gameplay. If you were to see ONE of these Demi-Gods on the battlefield in modern times, you might as well roll over and kiss your ass goodbye.
Edit: Master Chief is also a master of a plethora of Martial arts. He is also an expert marksman with every weapon he can get his hands on.
After reading all you've said I get really pissed off about the Masterchief vs Agent Locke fight scene.
We should have been two supermen punching each other across the screen like Watered down Dragon Ball Z
Not two drunks
Sundered Star RIGHT??? Like how does anyone else not see this
Zero Cognition First off, the missile was called a scorpion missile, but it was fired from a dropship, and doing what he did nearly killed him even with the suit, and it it also powered, at the start of the chapter he notes how uncomfterable it is when put on, but once kickstarted and powered up isn't even noticable.
this was perfect finally someone who actually knows chief!
Jack Wilson but even still, this video doesn't point that out, so what the guy says is true, the video is full of misinformation
Master chief doesent have bulletproof armor
Bulletproof armor has master chief
Demolition ranch shot a titanium plate (roughly 1-2" thick) with a .50 BMG API, a pretty similar round and it stopped it. Also this is 500 years in the future so they may be able to produce better quality metals with different properties.
+Creepy Cooter Ahhhh! oh it's just you
A 14.5mm is twice as powerful as .50 bmg also the Halo Sniper rifle uses armor piercing sabots which goes at a far higher velocity than standard rounds. Higher velocity bullets ignore most material resistance and the insane speed of shaped charges ignores all material resistance (which is why copper shaped charge liners penetrate tanks).
Anything under 25.0mm round doesn't penetrate his armor. Lore-wise. 12.7mm is .50 Caliber. 14.5mm is only about 57. caliber.
The Old Deus Caliber has nothing to do with penetration. 25mm AP penetrates about 47mm of rha at close range and 14.5mm AP penetrates a bit over 40mm at close range. 14.5 apfsds has even better penetration qualities due to the velocity. Even if the round didn't penetrate the first shot doesn't mean the armor is invulnerable to that threat.
But yeah, it was 30mm-50mm, I misspoke.
I wish you had used the books rather than the games.
Mehh, I don't like the expanded universe
+SpacePak well it's just that the games modify it to be fun. like in the books, the armor without shields is pretty much impervious to small arms fire, but that games change that for playability so he can die from a SMG shot to the foot
+SpacePak oh and the whole 'carrying the weight of a small elephant' thing, the armor has liquid crystal hydraulics, carrying its own weight once assembled
Chief is 6'10 out of armor and 7'2 in armor
This guy probably should of done alittle more research if he does wanna get rage from halo fans like us
lol I thought I clicked on a video on youtube, not halo wiki
Ashley Cayenne what does that even mean
Ferbombi wiki is known to not always be factual hence “halo wiki” lol
There's a difference between gameplay mechanics and accuracy to the actual lore
This is all wrong! The only reason u can kill Spartans is becuz of balancing reasons.
Master Chief can carry the armor, not only because he's been augmented to be stronger, but also because the suit is kind of like a robot, as in it moves with him. It knows exactly what Chief wants to do, because it's connected to his nervous system.
Yeah, it responds to his inputs in sync with his muscles, his neural implant acts like another nervous system when linked to the suit. This means that while exerting his regular muscles, the suit is also working, giving him more than double the strength he would need.
"master cheif isn't that strong" I know this is just scientific theory, but cmon! they explain in-game that Spartans are stronger than most (if not all) normal humans... so... what?
Spartans are augmented to where they have almost indestructible bones and is way stronger and has way faster reflexes compared to a normal human
Halo Content exactly
Bobby Papoutsis Spiderman is not as strong as a spartan
Bobby Papoutsis Spiderman is faster but stronger? I don't think it. I never saw spidy throwing a tank or an elephant
No regular humans (without somehow adapting to some crazy conditions like extra gravity, but then they wouldn't be normal anyway hence stopping the argument there) can match any of the physical attributes of a SPARTAN-II save for height and weight. The strength of one SPARTAN is easily more than 5 strong humans, while still having a stamina to operate that strength where others would tire out. 5 guys carrying a 500lb couch down a hallway would get tired after a few trips, each man is lifting 100lbs. A SPARTAN could not only make the trip himself, but would be able to do so repeatedly without tiring nearly as fast as the 5 regular human men.
In the Halo lore, its states that Chief is actually 6'10-6'11 without armor, and 7'2 with the armor. And his suit only amplifies his abilities a little, his power comes mostly from his augmentations.
In his suit he's 7'2. He can't be only 6'7
he's 6'10 out of suit, 7'2 in suit.
In the books, the shields were immune to most guns. the only reason they pierce shields in the game is because they are using these things called "shredder rounds" that were much more powerful than standard ammunition.
+Enf enf enf I thought they did it for balance reasons. For example the plasma weapons in Halo would actually be better then the human weapons but for the sake of gameplay the human weapons are normally more powerful.
Taylor Houle Or shields.
they are a larger round... like using heavy match ammunition in real life.
fact: you dont freeze in space rather overheat because you body temprature cant eacape or transfer to anything else
This guy need and deserves so much more subscribers
Yeah it sucks that he doesn't have as much viewers and subscribers, he derserves it but I think he doesn't really care.
I agree. The video quality is incredible, I love the minimalistic type editing
+Mike I hope you don't mind, but I posted a link to this video on reddit, the guys at r/halo would love this
+Mike I see that you already found it :D
***** I hoped it would be front page, but I'd really recommend that you do this every time you post a video just to get a little more exposure.
Spartan IIs had procedures/surgeries done to them and John is a Spartan II, Spartan IIIs however did get pumped with drugs.
all Spartans got drugged as part of the enhancements but what you're referring to is that spartan-III Gamma company got a highly illegal drug that made them mentally unstable
+Henry Hopkins I know, Spartan IIIs however did not get surgeries/procedures/implants, they used drugs instead of these surgeries as it was inexpensive compared to the surgeries. Gamma only took additional drugs, they were not the only ones they had took.
+L. Snider I was under the impression they had the same surgical procedures because in the ghosts of onyx book Kurt makes a point of saying that the technology had improved and none of them died during augmentation. The armor the IIIs wore was a lot cheaper but the surgeries weren't
+Henry Hopkins, I may have explained it badly, I meant it wasn't done surgically but rather chemically induced.
+L. Snider can you find a source? I'm not saying you're wrong I just don't remember that
2:01 you also gotta factor in special surgery that replaces bone with metal that does not degrade in the body not to mention multiple augmentations.
basically he's still a badass like everyone knows and loves
Awesome animations :P
+Mobox Motion Graphic Tutorials Those are 343's.

_"This leapfrogs questions like how does someone carry armor that weighs as much as a baby elephant"_
Wait, you mean wearing it? Because... that's already answered. It's an exoskeletan suit. Same way with how the U.S. military and DARPA are experimenting with current powered exo suits whose frames weigh enough that no one would be able to wear them if they weren't powered suits. The exoskeletan keeps the frame upright and keeps the weight off the user. It's less "wearing" the suit than it is "piloting" the suit. It's not like wearing a bunch of metal plates just hanging on your body.
I'm gonna hazard a guess and say that energy shields deflect normal bullets and possibly absorb direct hits from sniper rifles by completely vaporising the round in its shield-ness. Similar to how it protects from plasma weapons.
The energy shields in the Halo universe are designed to absorb energy and not deflect it, like kinetic shields do in Mass Effect
One thing that's pretty amazing is they've somehow managed to reduce the recoil of, basically, a small anti-tank cannon (the sniper rifle), depending on how you classify a cannon, to a level that ordinary marines can easily manage firing it like you would any other rifle.
Boeing making a force field? That would be something cool to see, right up there with first people on Mars by 2023 or whenever...more so in my lifetime would be nice. Another one for the Books of awesome videos Mike, keep it up.
Nananana batman!
Don't think it's happening yet chief.
Love the animation in this one Mike, very slick.
Do you think the paint may have some protective effects other than corrosion resistance or decoration.
0:30 - *Galaxy
Several times I might add.
really well done video, once again.
Let me remind u people, my boy punched a nuke and lived.
There is just one thing that might deplete a lot of this video, John not only has the armor and the shield, he also went through several physical improvements when he went through the Spartan process improving his skeletal and muscle strength/capacity.
Also his suit enhances this to the point where someone who hadn't gone through the Spartan process would break there bones just from movement in one of these suits.
As well halo is a game and half the things that are in it are unrealistic, to either progress the story or make combat more even when realistically chief might... MIGHT be all most unstoppable to the covenant.
I like the new style for these videos, and that shield regeneration animation is absolutely stunning. I love the lore behind the armour and how it can be explained. The thing about the neural interface being able to predict your movement so you don't have to carry the mass of the suit and increase movement speed is awesome. Great video!
+Mike I personally am a huge fan of Halo because if the lore. It's incredibly intriguing because of all the hypothetical technology. Also, I'm brand new to this channel and I already love it!
I love how you take people's favorite video games, and apply science.
first question you asked about carrying the amour:
he has a chip on the back of his neck that connects him to his suit. He doesn't move the armour, he starts the movement and it predicts that movement.
Alaskan Blitz somewhat true. But the armour actually moves him. It cuts the delay from biological limitations.
So the armour actually moves him before his muscles receive the brain signal
Sundered Star that's basically what I said
If you guys are wondering how he is able to wear 1000 pound armor lemme tell you.
Every spartan has a neural adapter on their the back of their heads that connect the suit to the brain so the suit is controlled by thought. So they actually don't feel the weight and it is more of like a second skin.
Very good use of graphics and narration. My only critique is for your face cam shots, the warm light from your lights and the cool light from the natural light conflict with one another. Other than that great job keep up the good work!
the way they carry the armor is thorough a neural chip implanted in the head of the soldier which is linked to the armors on board computer that actually makes the armor lighter for the user since its just their brain thats making the armor do what it does which makes it in some way logically lighter
How bulletproof is Master Chief?
He isn't. His armour is.
Awesome vid I love your halo ones in particular.
Chief 8,9 ft tall (even without armor) , not 6,7.
Spartans are superhuman without their armor. Unbreakable bones, superhuman speed, reflexes, agility, etc. the armor just enhances that.
First video I found of his, instantly subbed
Awesome :) hope you enjoy your stay. Mind I ask how you found the channel?
>Can take a shit load of bullets
>Can jump out of a space ship
>dies from getting punched in the back
Elephant gameplay ??????
Chief took a lot of hits in the game, and the only time his armour got damaged was when he fell from space, it took a fall from space to dent/scratch his armour
Wow really nice information you gathered here
How do you only have 17k subs? You deserve WAY more
if you ever played the original Halo game in PVP the energy shield is useless against hitting Master Chief in the back hitting him with either the pistol or your fist can instantly kill Master Chief
Ok I’m gonna say this once he’s “bulletproof” enough to punch a nuke
The Mjolnir armor is motion assisted, the reason wearing a 1000lb suit of armor doesn't really phase Master Chief (or any spartan for that matter) is the suit holds itself up in a way and assists in increasing strength, speed and reaction time among many other things, it also can not be dialed back, it's motion assistance is too much for a normal Human too handle, in one of the books when Spartan John-117 (he wasn't Master Chief at the time) first gets his Mjolnir armor he tries to salute an officer and smashes himself in the face and thinks about how his wrist would be broken if he wasn't a spartan . . . . . there is also an incident in the same book where an ODST is testing out a suit of Mjolnir armor and dies horribly just trying to bend over
maybe the shield slows it down enough that the armor has no problem stopping it
when i was reading MC wiki there was nothing about him surviving re entry earth's atmosphere or even about requiem. so were is the info/facts?
On the topic of energy shields, they may just use the same technology as the energy sword (electromagnetically contained plasma) and just vapourish the bullet, though the power strain would be enormous, btw love the channel m8, keep up the good work.
*vapourise
this would explain why in the first level if you shoot the captain the soldiers take you out easily
I bet this guy plays Grifball all day
John was 6'10" outside of his armor, not 6'7" and weighted 290. In the suit, he's 7'4" and 990 lbs. Other perspective is Daniel Cudmore, who plays Colossus in X-men and also played the MC in Forward Unto Dawn is 6'8" and weighed 240.
Master chief does't carry the "Exosuit" that weighs approximately 1 ton, the armor follows his movements an enhances his performance. He does not physically carry the weight of the armor by himself, the armor is an "Exosuit" which surrounds him, he does not keep the armor erect it follows his movement.
Solid video dude.
Master chief survived reentry because he was using a forerunner door as a heat shield.
He survived space because he wasn't out there for very long and his suits environment control systems would have still been operational.
Woaw! I'm your 6,999th sub and now you have 13K?! YOU'RE CHANNEL IS GROWING FAST!!!!
But still! A lot of people would wish to be you right now! You should feel proud for reaching this number! You're only..
87K away from become famous! Your almost a 1/5th way there! Don't feel sad! You've crossed the "nobody" section AGES ago! You're on your way to become a famous dude.
Not sure if I depressed you or made you happier, but I was trying to make you happy...
***** I had to re-read that. When you said bodies I was like "wot". But anyways, sure thing!
***** I Know, tanks for being an AMAZIN video creator! You deserve +100K for EVERY video you make! Keep being awesome ;)
OMFG
Theres a difference between In Game Mechanics and whats Halo Lore...
M.C. can't be taken down by one sniper bullet ...
Haven't you seen people shooting blocks of titanium on youtube?
Halo 5 has a scumbag armour mod called upgraded shields that can survive energy bayonets and deflect sniper and beam rifle shots even if u hit their head
This is nothing I couldn’t have figured out just by playing the game
Mark IV, V, and VI are titanium, Gen2 is a ceramic-titanium retrofit with nanotechnology integration. It's still unknown whether or not the Mark VIs are ceramic as they have nanotech to upgrade firmware as presented in Halo 4. Also, the Chief's reactions time plays a big role against snipers. When was the last time you saw him twitch after getting shot? Trust me, he'd aimbot his target after hearing a wisp, let alone dive for cover after getting shot. Don't forget, campaign and multiplayer are two different things, he's a walking Mobile Suit Gundam after all.
technically he wasn't frozen in space since there was nothing to transfer his heat.
These videos are so entertaining.
the thing you said about the shield repelling plasma makes a lot of sense because you see it fly back after a hit but you should look to see if chiefs shield instead of deflecting the bullet instead attempts to vaporize it because it would need a lot of energy to do that and would at least melt the bullet and remove A significant portion of the force
nice video! loved it!
His bones r indestructable
Spartans are also cybernetically augmented, that's how they can use the armour instead of just lying there... And only 33 out of 75 candidates actually survived the surgeries and training
The mjornir armor is powered. It powers itself. He doesn't need to carry it. The armor carries him
The 14.5x114mm round that's fired from SRS sniper rifles is an Armor-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot round. It is essentially a hyper-dense dart that directs a lot of kinetic energy in a very small region for maximum penetration power. Using the term "Armor Piercing" on a round such as this is a gross miscalculation.
+Doctor Life MD Sigh...the names are different and the stats are not? So it makes no difference
+Lucas Ng Uh... what? Have you ever looked at the difference between an AP shell and an APFSDS? An APFSDS, or simply, a Sabot round, has considerably higher armor-piercing capabilities than an AP round. It is considerably heavier and it flies at a far greater velocity, plus it contains no explosive filler. Purely a penetrating rod made out of dense metals (in our era, they're made from Tungsten or Depleted Uranium). According to the kinetic energy formula, it has a lot of more kinetic energy than an armor-piercing shell.
The statistics are definitely different, thus it makes a difference.
Sabot (APFSDS) rounds are definitely better than Armor-Piercing.
Doctor Life MD ....I said he had the stats for the sabot rounds, so who cares if he had a different name for it? Simplification for the the public
John didn't simply receive performance enhancing drugs, and growth hormones. I mean some on, he had his bones laced with advanced ceramics to make them far stronger, and his new base reflexes are insane.
what I want to know is how strong it is and what is it able to with stand
Mk 5(A) can withstand a quadruplet of 50 mm guns (shield bar dropped to half) and at least 1 anti tank missile in the next 25 seconds. That's just the mk5(a) Don't ask me what the Mk 6 Gen2 can do cuz I don't know
wait wait wait
energy shields are a thing now?
WHERE DO I SIGN UP?
I'm sure that master chief is 6'10 and 7'2 in armour, great vid but you might want to check that
+Mike I was going more off the Halo wikia, i don't know but it seems more reasonable
Halo 4-5 armor has ceramic plates all over the suits under the first layer of the paint and wax-like coat. The jell in the under armor is to regulate body temp, absorb kinetic shock, and when a bullet makes it's way past the jell and into the human it releases painkillers and a clotting agent to help stop bleeding. The energy shield also reduces energy and shock by sending it to the ground and this is done via magnetic and some kind of compression. The shock is taken in like water and then shifted around the user's whole body and then forced away to the ground and then discharged. The user shouldn't feel much but maybe a small amount of feedback pressure at all sides of there body from the shield exploding out. Some spartans also add extra protection like kevlar and extra plates of ceramic but most people over look, haven't unlocked the armor yet, and or cant tell because in pvp most amror is colored heavily with team shades of blue and red to make them stick out.
don't forget the refractive coating on his armor to help disperse energy based attacks
After hearing the specks of the sniper rifle round makes me realize that he hits just as hard as sniper rifle bullet
exactly master chief is that OP😱
awsome advice
Please note that this is based off gameplay and not from canon feats.
Man, I love me some halo science videos. Great video Mike. Hey, are you going to buy Fallout 4?
+Mike I think fallout gives you a lot of options for videos and it's fun to play. You can make videos about the power armor, the guns, and more.
+Mike that sounds really interesting
read the halo books and u will get a different result
This is a question. Aren't the games alpha canon? Meaning when other sources produce information that contradict, the games show truth? Bungee = games > than all other source. Can't pick and choose, there is alpha canon and then there is everything else.
Actually, the books are alpha canon.
Just so you guys know, 14.5 mm is the bullet diameter, while 114mm would be the length of the brass case that holds the gun powder. Either way, that's a lot of powder and kinetic energy.
If it's bulletproof you cannot measure it's power, cause well, it's bulletproof.
in the games the only reason his armor fails to the sniper rifle is well balance for instance the energy sword in halo lore does not only take 10 hits to the deplete the battery.
Well that's interesting.
the soldier doesn't move the armor. the armor itself moves and amplifies the speed and power of the soldier's movements. which is why if a normal person were in the armor, their bones end up snapping from the force.
He’s pretty much captain America without his armour anyway? Damn!
you are forgetting that a sniper will go through the armor even with full shielding. that's why in later halo games chief is actually hurt when taking a body shot from a sniper, and why a head shot is always a one hit kill with a sniper.
It's the kinetic and momentum transfer that hurts.
BrokenLifeCycle apparently enough to kill him by blunt force trauma to the brain in one hit...
you gotta remember though, gameplay isn't cannon only cutscenes and books. lorewise anything below a 25mm round (not sure if I remember right) won't do much to the armor.
videogames are useless as a source for gathering fact it was balanced to make gameplay felt more challenging
and you are forgetting that the sniper you're talking about isn't anything like modern sniper rifles. It's, well, watch the video.
John is actually 6’11 without armor and 7’2 with it.
Now to help you understand the armor. A lot of the things you said was somewhat true. Master Chief has two layers of armor. There's a gel layer with that black suit of armor which is made out of titanium special types of metals as well as a gel layer. And the frontal armor like the helmet the chest the arms and legs are pure mjolnir armor. But there's multiple types of mjolnir armor. What Master Chief usually uses is the mark 4 the Mark 5 and Mark 6 armor. The switches around between games but the primary armor Master Chief uses is a Gen 2 Mark 6 armor. There are three generation of armor. There are two gen 1 armor which provides protection and the abilities that your average Spartan needs. They're usually found on Spartan 2s and Spartan threes. Now we have the Gen 2 Armor which is what Sparks and fours will use and if Sparks and tools are still around they would get an updated set of their armor and that usually would be a Gen 2 armor set. Now we have the Gen 3 armor. The Gen 3 armor has the same style and protection as the Gen 1 armor the also all the modern updates of the Gen 2 Armor. But there's multiple variance the Gen 3 armor Master Chief is receiving in Halo infinite has the same style as his old Mark 5 armor but it's going to provide him maximum protection. Now let's get down to more. Spartans also go through augmentation because if you don't have augmentation and you wear mjolnir armor you will die from the mjolnir armor. So augmentations Master Chief went through is a bit more dangerous because the chemicals that they had are experimental. But Master Chief received one extra augmentation which allows in the ability to use in AI. That gives him the ability to use Cortana or Roland. What would happen is if a Spartan has this argumentation would be able to have access to Tactical data and know what's going on in the battlefield. So taking it leak Master Chief with Cortana would be 10 steps ahead of his enemies. If Master Chief had a different AI it would go the same route. But the interesting thing about having an AI is they can start up an energy Shield as built within the armor. In one instance a flood infection form was about to take over Master Chief but thanks to Cortana she was able to start up the Shields and killed the flood inflection form. So it's like going through a maze of Firepower. There's a lot of armor and security protocols built within the armor to protect the Spartan. Oh and the interesting thing is there's different models of each set of armor to help fit each row of each member of each Squad of Spartans.
If you read the books you would know that he's insanely strong even without the armor.
